Under Armor and Lululemon are also down 75%, Puma down 60%. Adidas is down 35%. It’s not just a Nike problem. Asics, Hoka/Decker and Sketchers are up, though. There’s definitely a lot more competition than there were back in the MJ days.
As an American, I also blame our British colonizers for our lack of progress. Same for Canada, Australia and New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore
Sophomore in HS. It’s funny looking at this list and the memories associated with the songs. I can’t say that any were especially my favorites or anything, but I can recall most of the music videos from MTV. For some I have a memory of a time and place when I may have listened to it. For some an association of specific people. I remember being at Blockbuster Music when my friend bought that STP CD, or the first time I heard down because someone was singing it by my locker, or getting drunk with Burden in My Hand in the background, staring at Jewell’s melons when the music video came on. Weird how old songs are associated with random memories that you didn’t even know were there.
She was always kinda meaty, as any trustworthy chef should be. That first pic is heavily shopped.

I’d prefer to be dropped off in 1994

You sure about that? His kid was this guy:


Raising Mentally Strong Kids. The author is a bit of a quack doctor so you have to take a lot of it with a grain of salt, but the core ideas and methods are sound: making kids that aren’t soft, entitled shite bags through providing safe environments for them to fail, make mistakes, have responsibilities, get hurt, be bored, solve problems, do things for themselves and learn how to deal with it before they turn into helpless adults.
I normally pay around $1000, but I don’t get the crap they have at the doctors office. High end optical shops have more fashionable stuff. I gave up on Warby and Zeni. I like being able to see and having a dude that can fit them properly.
Just go on and make the women wear burqas. That’s really the ultimate way to control your lust when you see a woman.
I think we would’ve just focused it all on the other front. The Western European front was not really necessary for the US
I’d like one in my bedroom with a tiny little mattress in it.
Flipping homes has been a nice form of upward mobility. Started with a crack house in my 20’s and traded up every few years. Young people complaining about the price of rent should do the same. I would think the fixer-upper would be more attractive than ever when people are pinching pennies.
I think the invention of the computer/internet or of nuclear weapons or space travel will ultimately have a greater impact on the world.

Now that I think about it, at least two of those things, maybe all, were a direct result of WWII. So, yes WWII was pivotal indeed.

Oxytocin, dopamine, vasopressin
Humans will find a new sun to live by at least 4 billion years before that day comes. No worries.
Honestly, I’m just glad the hacky-sackers have a network of bros to hang with at their advanced age. Good for them having that support system and finding ways to be active and enjoy life.

This occurred to me as well, but I’m not smart enough to figure out why.
May be time to upgrade to car style seatbelts with the shoulder strap
Went about 15 years ago. There was hardly anyone there. The thing I remember most is how the marble stairs were so worn down that they were basically curved downward. Coming down was fraught.
Not too bad for 2pm on a weekday.
