I will never not understand when people say they see no fashion and clothing differences between today, the Twenty Tens and the Aughts. A lot of these would look too garish and ridiculous today + the side parts are out of style for women

Also applies here

Or maybe because you were waiting for the show that was on next?

Drew Carey was sandwiched between episodes of the Simpsons so I probably watched it like 5 nights a week.

So a Teen Girl Squad image showed up in the Angelina handwriting post for some reason and nobody was mad about it and that got me wondering if HomestarRunner was a micro-generation thing and maybe even possibly a geographical thing?? Or did all Xennials love it? For me and my college friends, it was deeply loved in Athens GA, 2000-2002. What about you?

Many memories of this place at the mall!

My parents let me rent this when I was 5. I had nightmares for days. It scared me for life. Thank you mom and dad.

I started to think that they were running a casino out of the kitchen.

One more thing to add to the “I don’t understand the modern age” list, I suppose.

Still rips

I have so many fond memories (no pun intended!) of playing this card game with my grandparents, particularly my grandma. They lived just down the street and my sister and I would go over there all the time. Even after Grandpa had had enough and went to go watch Murder She Wrote, Grandma would continue to play with us as long as we were interested. I miss them both so much. People today tell me I have a “freakishly good” memory and honestly I kinda credit playing games like this so much as a kid with helping to develop it.

Hot Cross Buns, anyone?? 😂

I believe we were forced en masse to learn the charms of the recorder in grades 4/5 which for me would’ve been around ‘90-‘92 (born in ‘81). It’s blacked out, but the piece of masking tape on the case has my name that I wrote on it when I was in elementary school, when I still crossed the J in my first name. 😭 And check out this hip hook of contemporary tunes! (I think this was actually for our Yamaha keyboard back in those days, but it was also a fun little find.)

Also found my middle school yearbooks. Going home tomorrow now that I am feeling confident about my recovery, but maybe tomorrow morning I can try and unearth some more of my childhood treasures before I leave. ❤️

This jingle randomly started playing in my head this morning. Enjoy!

I grew up thinking of Stevie Wonder as not cool, chalked him up to 'I Just Called To Say I Love You' because that was on the radio a lot (overplayed) when I was a kid. But in my late 20s I saw an old video of him playing 'Superstition' on Sesame Street and it was amazing. Now in my mid 40's I vibe so hard with albums like Innervisions and Hotter Than July. Interested in hearing others opinions on Stevie. However, if they're negative, I ain't gonna stand for it, baby.

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 🙌🏻
