When I'd get to kindergarten too early, the teacher let us watch some cable tv. It was usually showing the original xmen cartoon.

I haven't watched it yet, but maybe I should.

I’m old but a young co-worker got me onto Lemmy.

I don’t remember where I was on 9/11 but I was drinking a lot back then so that doesn’t say much.

TBF, I quit my job when I saw that going down, and moved to the other coast days later.

Men used to wear booty shorts and belly shirts like some women do today; if they bothered with a shirt at all publicly and it was all 100% A OKAY; abs/pecs or not
