Back in my day

Gender fluids were something not discussed openly.

The word racism typically referred to racists.

Music was played by humans.

I'm not very creative, but feel free to tell the board what it was like in your day.

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me

Well, me and my buddies discussed them.

Snail trails and pecker tracks were commonly laughed about.

I remember. Isn’t that why we can’t find Freon for old car and home cooling systems? Or, is that aerosol deodorants?

A ho was a hoe. Crack was what you were doing when you was cracking jokes.

Coke was still cola and a joint was a bad place to be.

Disagree, joints were great places to be, always the best music.

Now they are called Starbucks and require a minimum Soy value in you medical portfolio to enter.

In my preschool in 1989 we used to go "wah wah wah" with our hand on our mouth like wild Indians. Needless to say the DOJ considers us all domestic terrorists

The closest thing most households had to a computer was a calculator.
Most guys in high school had guns on campus. Their hunting rifles and shotguns were in their trucks. Nobody would have thought of shooting up the school.
Pregnant teens got married quickly before their condition became obvious and pretended that the baby was premature.

Every Friday at school. We had a Catholic Church in our small town but I can't remember any of my friends that were Catholic. My other favorite was minute steak, mashed potatoes, English peas and yeast rolls. I don't think we had that every week but it was a welcome sight as you entered the "lunch room". This was back in the 60s. I think our meal ticket was like a dollar a week.
