Cheers has been part of my life… literally my entire life. I’m watching a rerun on CMT and am remembering how much this show means to me.

Edit: After reading some of y’all’s comments, it’s amazing to see how many of us find comfort in this show. ❤️

And winning big!

I was talking to my niece who’s about 10 younger than me about these. She grew up in NYC where I’ve always lived in LA and she said she never saw these before. Curious if these were just regional or if they were always there on the market checkout line. I also remember always wanting one, but never got one. Anyone remember these?

My cousin posted this because they brought it back for her kid’s prize booth. I was so obsessed with stickers that I was beyond excited when I went in a store with my mom and they had these! Remember sticker books?!

Laid off. A year and 500 applications later and still no work. I'm beginning to accept that the career I once took for granted is no longer a viable path forward. I need to start over doing something else, but I have no idea what to do.

Anyone else in the same boat? What's the plan?

Anyone else’s parents just stop giving birthday presents? I have a good relationship with my parents. I always try to give a nice, meaningful or useful gift for their birthdays. We always do things as a family to celebrate them as well. I am a baker, so this usually includes me baking their favorite cake or dessert. But when my birthday comes around my dad forgets to even call and my mom doesn’t bother to give me a gift or offer to take me to lunch or anything. Is this some weird Boomer parent thing, or are my folks just weird? And money isn’t an issue, they have well over a million in the bank.

**edit to add, this is less about receiving and actual gift and more about the effort that I put into celebrating my parents compared to their lack effort (or lack of) from them. I was just curious if this was a generational thing or something unique to my family.

I had a great friend in high school that used to buy cd's just based on unusual band names. One time, we went to the mall, and he bought Sneaker Pimps - Becoming X. We both really were taken by the album, and it was something we played whenever we drove around and smoked weed.

I found out that he's had some recent health issues, and from what I understand, he's in a coma and the outlook isn't very postive. Playing this one tonight and thinking about some of our youthful adventures.

I had at least two pairs of these!

Now it’s a party!

It just dawned on me why the carriage return key on PC keyboards is dog legged. The carriage return lever on mechanical typewriters was dog legged so it was easier to blindly push so the shape just got carried over into the key on electric typewriters and word processors, then to computers.

Does anyone else have trouble listening to songs from our generation without hearing or even singing the Weird Al version? I cannot listen to Another One Bites The Dust without singing - loudly - Another One Rides The Bus. Or I Love Rocky Road. Might as well face it I'm addicted to spuds.

But hey, it’s New York City. Weird things happen everyday.
