@2many2no@andymand@mike808 I honestly don’t remember 50 cent gasoline, but I remember that a pack of Kent Golden Lights cost me 50 cents. I don’t even know if they make those cigs these days
@2many2no@allergycheryl@andymand@mike808
29¢ a gallon or less when I started driving. I can remember gas wars dropping it down to below a quarter…
That was long enough ago that some of that stuff was made from only recently deceased dinosaurs…
@2many2no@allergycheryl@andymand@chienfou@mike808 Yep, 50¢ a gallon (and higher) came during the 70’s embargo. I was working at a gas station at the time (during high school) and we put up a sign that said “Gas sale - 2 for a dollar”.
@2many2no My dad’s version of the hardships of walking to school included “In snow up to our armpits.” Since he grew up in northern Minnesota and North Dakota, he probably wasn’t exaggerating all that much.
Wait what?

Where does work come in
Walking to school.
Uphill.
Both ways.
In the snow.
Barefoot.
And we liked it!
@2many2no …with barbed wire wrapped around our feet for traction
@2many2no and we especially loved it in South Texas! No snow, but the temps were over 100 and the sidewalks and blacktops got hot
@2many2no @andymand
And gas was 50¢ a gallon.
@allergycheryl And you could fry an egg on the sidewalk for breakfast along the way
@asplus oh my gosh! were you following me???

@2many2no @andymand @mike808 Fifty cents a gallon for gas? We only paid 22 cents!
@2many2no @macromeh Snow gets to your armpits a lot sooner when you’re a kid, too.
@allergycheryl @andymand @chienfou @macromeh @mike808
Actually, gas was 19 or 20 cents/gallon and a pack of Marlboro was 25 cents.
Lotta shit’s happened since then.
Streetball!
Throw the tomato at the car and run!

@mike808 I loved my thighmaster. I even bought the one that works the outside of the thighs. I know they’re somewhere in a box, I need to find em…
Crush your enemies, see them driven before you,
and hear the lamentation of their women.
@werehatrack That’s the best thing.
Hunting wildebeests and gathering berries.
Running from the law.
@rockblossom Hmmmm…

Chopping wood is the OG of sports. They do it as a competition in the Basque Country:

@GrandmaLyn I have watched some of those competitions on TV. It is impressive.
@GrandmaLyn @yakkoTDI It’s not just the Basque…
