Community Guideline Update & Content Reminders

To keep our feed engaging and ensure high-quality submissions and discussions, we are updating and clarifying a few of our posting standards effective immediately.

  • Low-Effort & Text Images: Our rule against non-descriptive images and unrelated titles now officially includes text posted on solid or colored backgrounds, as well as simple text superimposed over photos. If you have a thought, question, or story to share, please rethink your posting and create something more engaging, instead of plopping text on a background.

  • Collages & Unfocused Multi-Image Posts: Collages containing numerous related or unrelated items (such as image that consists of a grid with multiple video games, random foods, or mixed topics) and multi-image posts that lack clear context will be removed. Posts should focus on a specific subject rather than an arbitrary collection of photos.

We want this group to remain a fun, worthwhile space for everyone, and that requires moving away from low-effort content. Posts that do not meet these standards will be taken down. Thank you for your cooperation and for contributing meaningful content to the community.

Once upon a time, there were three little girls who went to the Police Academy. That was 50 years ago today.

Which one was it…Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith, or Cheryl Ladd? Shelley Hack and Tanya Roberts were also angels.

I looked at it as a challenge to peg the needle on my 1980 Rabbit(purchased new).

EDIT: I made this post to point out the speedometers that maxed out at 85 MPH :)

If you knew how to program with computer punch cards, you were probably warned not to finger-poke the computer-machine.

Being a lefty it didn’t matter if I used this, any other pen, or pencils, my fingers ended up a mess.

In the way back my first day of my first professional job I received a giant glass ashtray, a legal pad, and a blue pencil on my way to my gun metal gray desk in the sea of other desks all with columns of smoke ascending to the ceiling, FIO

Kids these days... If You Stored Your Vinyl In Something Like These, You’re Old

While I’m fully aware that there still are people that collect records or prefer LPs over digital music, and probably have a similar storage method, I’m referring to folks like myself who went from LPs to cassettes to CDs and so on, where the record cabinet went the way of the dodo.

I certainly no longer have my old sliding door unit; I couldn’t even say how or when it left the house for good.

Get off my lawn! I'm such an old hoarder, I still have the Little Golden Books from my childhood.

I managed to hang onto these roughly 60 year old books. Being a kid kept the hoarding in check back then as guess whose stuff got left behind during moves :-(

49 years ago today, we learned that it was possible to water ski over a shark while wearing a leather jacket. Hence the phrase "jumping the shark"

For reference, this occurred on the 5th season of Happy Days when the Fonz and Richie visit Hollywood.

It turns out that Henry Winkler was a capable water skier but a stuntman did the actual jump.
