Nite all, enjoyed the input on tonite's topic, thought it was hoagie's best show in some time.  Will be going with the group consensus to skip tomorrow, but i'll be up for some arcology hijinks on Fri.  There were actually a few pics on that last show that had me saying mmmmm hmmmm.

Braaps Astro-Squirrel. May your journey back to EArth be a safe one devoid of temporal displacements.

damn Mandela effect is real

I forgot all about those. They were so bland then, and still are today. I vaguely remember seeing them once or twice, but I'm pretty sure when one of those came on, I switched off the TV and kicked on the radio. 

one summer at the time when all those infomercials were popular i remember i would watch reruns of simon and simon and then a double shot of one day at a time. i think barney miller was on in between. this is back when there were only 30-40 channels. a third would be off the air completely by 2-3am, another third would play infomercials until daylight, and the rest would play crap like the new adam 12 or religious bullshit like highway to heaven. there wasn't much to choose from unless you liked watching bowling or darts.

it's mostly females, but not always.. with dayglo shoelaces it seems to be females but i even see backpacks now with old neon 80s type pin stripes and shit. it's relatively new i don't remember seeing any of this a year or 2 ago. i hope this isn't the new thing. it's really silly.

Ha ha ha . Yup, I remember how barren the television programming was back then. 3 network channels and 2 UHF. My friends had cable though when it first came around. But yeah, late night programming was pretty barren back then.

LOL!  Why were those cans so big?  It seemed they were about a foot long.

Some of them could pull it off nicely, others were to big hair like Tanny-Faye was to make-up.

Cuz they used them to roll their hair while it dried lol's.

I was always a rebel.  No big hair or makup for me. I refuse to support businesses that insist you make yourself look like a clown to fit into society.  Yuk.  What you see is what you get.

One thing about aqua net is it makes great fuel for a spud gun.

Make up doesn't always do a woman justice anyway.  More often than not I'm like...ughhhh, why are you wearing that.

I don't know where I heard it, maybe on bellgab, but somebody said that the main purpose of makeup, was to leave evidence smeared all over the poor mans clothes.  lol's.  I never heard a better excuse for wearing makup than that.  Bwahahahaha
