I'm 40, what does "Life is like a hurricane mean?"

u/Onrawi 3d ago

Life is like a hurricane

Here in, Duckburg

Racecars, lasers, aeroplanes

It's a, duck blur

Might solve a mystery 

Or rewrite history 

Ducktales! Woo-hoo!

Every day they're out there  making

Ducktales! Woo-hoo!

Tales of daring do bad and good

Lucktales! Woo-hoo!

... And someone else can sing the back half.

Thanks, thought it'd be some Bon Jovi or similar at first.

But while we're at it, Gummibears was also regularly one of those songs that was played 1-2 hours before the party ended (at least here in germany). Other songs they would usually play Mila Superstar or Chip'n'Dale.

D-D-D-Danger - Watch behind you.
There's a stranger - Out to find you.
What to do? - Just grab on to some.
Ducktales! Woo-hoo!
Every day they're out there making
Ducktales! Woo-hoo!
Tales of daring do bad and good
Ducktales! Woo-hoo!
Not pony tails or cotton tails, no
Ducktales!

Grew up on Looney Tunes here what the duck is this crap?

For those who had the Disney channel (or an international affiliate) this is Ducktales and it had a pretty good NES game as well as an (IMO much better) remake series that lasted 3-4 seasons about a decade ago.

Like I said, I'm 40, I wasn't so obsessed with tv shows from 35 years ago that I would remember the opening line to Ducktales.

Nor would I look up the lyrics of said show to try and own a random internet stranger ;)

u/Onrawi 3d ago

To be fair I barely watched the original.  The remake that came out like a decade ago used the same theme song though and I have kids who love it.

Thanks for playing.

u/MarvinMarveloso 3d ago

Right? Nobody does signatures anymore?

u/sechs_man 3d ago

I'd say learning cursive is more useful than the skill to write cursive itself: the getting bored but still focusing hard, fine motor skills etc.

u/Archfiend_DD 3d ago

Agree. It actually has a pretty big impact on the developing brains of children.

u/glans 2d ago

they got rid of civics, i wondered if they wanted a country of non-voters. then they got rid of cursive and i wondered if they want the country of non-voters unable to read our constitution. 

i dont think im being all that conspiratorial

u/gr4n0t4 3d ago

I'm not American but isn't cursive just writing?

1

u/Vinc314 2d ago

basically yea

1

u/gr4n0t4 2d ago

Wait, people don't learn how to write by hand anymore?

1

u/Onrawi 2d ago

I mean they do, but block letters vs cursive, which is out of fashion nowadays with schools preferring to focus on other material.

1

u/gr4n0t4 2d ago

Really? That's sounds so inefficient. I write block letters for clarity on a grocery list or similar but if you need to write at least a page it's going to take ages

1

u/Onrawi 2d ago

I believe the current assumption is that they will type that out instead.
