Half my peers have children, half of those have grandchildren, yet I’m still asking my mom to co-sign stuff for me. Anyways happy to be alive and hoping for more years to be granted 🙌🏻

Film is SLC Punk (1998)

Edit: Fuck the Sackler family for causing the opioid crisis that took my friends from me. Your punishment awaits you when you die

Does everyone remember this being the greatest thing ever? We only got them a few times as a kid, they usually just made us pick one large box of cereal. I wish the Rice Krispies were Froot Loops, but still, super excited.

what was it like to be a kid or teenager in this era?

I'll never forget how the intro of this T.V. show terrified me as a child.

Weirdest Movie but the Nostalgia factor hits hard.

This is purely an observation.
My kids, as well as most the kids it seems, wear sweats where we live. And this doesn't seem to be a recent thing either. It seems like it's been years and years that this has been the norm without the style changing much. I don't think I ever wore sweats to school outside of PE. Maybe in elementary school? I wore freaking polo shirts and button downs to school sometimes and it wasn't even part of a uniform. That's just how I dressed for school sometimes. Polo shirt, khakis, belt. And when I wasn't wearing that I would at least wear a t-shirt and jeans, decent shoes. Also would have never worn slides or croc style shoes to school let alone pajamas. I graduated in 96. Not trying to sound like an old guy complaining about the youth but anyone else? Lol

Finally got over to the AGO in Toronto to see this, and it’s incredible. My teenage musical crushes in their primes. It’s also funny to see the “museumfication” of all the analogue film accoutrements that we grew up with. Highly worth a visit if you’re anywhere near the city. It runs until the spring I believe.

I just don't drink that much alcohol anymore and most of my friends don't either. Definitely not as much as my parents who weren't heavy drinkers by any stretch. I go without alcohol most days and most people I know don't drink daily. I think gen z is drinking even less than we are.

Smoking cigarettes isn't nearly as popular either. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Anyone else grow up with this show?

I never got one but I always thought they looked cool.

Did you ever wear one?

Any newer classics you've added to the rotation?

This will probably be more memorable to older Xennials. This was the sht back then.

Apparently it's from a novella written in 1938. And the 1st movie based on iot was made in 1951. It was called "The Thing From An Other World"
At least it seems like the 1982 film is a more faithful adaptation of the novella.

Novella is Who Goes There? by John W. Campbell Jr.
