Not to mention BBS systems, of which there were many. One of the best chat boards I was ever on was a single-threaded BBS, meaning there was only one "topic" and every time you logged on there were hundreds or thousands of messages on it. It was a real community. Just the fact that people all came to the same thread…
Which is why they made it for and aired it on Lifetime. It was meant to celebrate the silliness of these movies, not go totally over-the-top Sharknado style.
I think I saw it under the right conditions. I had never heard of it, saw it as the top trending topic on Twitter just before 10 PM last night so tuned in for the 2nd showing.
Wow… I really enjoyed it. First of all, of course it was parody. Some of you are implying or even saying outright that it wasn't. You are the same kind of people who on forums insist that you need to use smileys or sarcastic fonts in order to explain that what you are saying isn't serious.
At his core, Don is an ad man, his own creation. This is what he discovers when searching for himself. That's the point.
First thing to understand is that before the mid 1980s long distance phone service was very expensive in the US. There was only one phone company (Bell System) and because of older technology requiring more workers and lack of competition, long distance calling (even calling 50-100 miles away) was something you could…
Person-to-person phone calls were accepted in both cases on this show, but in my family we never admitted that the person being called was home (even if it was that person answering). We'd say call back in a couple of minutes (if home) or tell the truth if not home, so the person could call back without the extra…
There's a Friendly's right near here but I don't ever go to it. Not crazy about Friendly's.
or a Buddy Holly song was played at the end of an episode where Pete might be working for a private plane manufacturer
The date on the letter from Betty to Sally was October 3, 1970
Just figured it needed to be mentioned somewhere here
I'm not sure this is over.
"The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife" is the name of the painting in question.. look it up in Wikipedia
hmmm
There once was a man named McCann,
Who cooked his own poop in a pan
He said "I'll admit
To frying my s—t
But it makes one hell of a flan!"
I remember the round of layoffs… they called us into another meeting to tell us that some people (but didn't identify who) were going to be laid off, and we should resume what we were working on until further notice.
I'm not even sure that anyone really perceives using an umbrella as gay, it's just some crazy notion I picked up on. The reality was that bullies are always going to find a pretext for doing what they do, and they'll create one if it doesn't exist.
We all learn things as we grow up. I suspect that among straight people like myself, we learn early on not to "act gay". In my case, it is probably extreme. *To this day* I do not carry an umbrella no matter how hard it is raining (with a couple of exceptions). Why? Because when I was a little kid, maybe 9 years old,…
I agree that there are, but I don't agree that the behavior is not controllable. Mannerisms, sound of voice, etc. can always be learned. They came out of culture, they aren't aspects that someone was born with. All you need to look at openly gay communities in other places in the world - say, London - to realize that…
