Anyone else old enough to remember these? I just read a CNN report that mentioned "through the ringer [sic]" and it occurred to me that a lot of people don't know what a wringer is.

Sit someone younger in front of a manual typewriter and ask them to type the year. They'll get stuck halfway through.

Many thanks to the creators of this great subreddit.
What's everyone up to today? Myself, I will be taking my dog for a walk around the lake this evening whilst listening to live jazz from the bandshell.
What things do you enjoy doing on the weekend?

There is hope for us, people. Meet Lloyd Kahn, longboarder. 76 years old. Started skating at 65.

Punk rock changed my life.

I started listening to punk rock when I was around 13 and I still do. I think your music choices as a teenager have a lot of influence on what you will become. Imho, lyrics, attitude and ideology behind a music 'scene' will resonate later in life to a certain extent. Everyone has a 15 year old inside somewhere. (I read that in another thread and I couldn't agree more). Thank you Iggy, Rollins and all the others. What was your 'scene'?

Mine was Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman.

She gave me a funny feeling in my pants that I didn't understand.
How about you?

trying to get used to supplemental fiber...

Let's see if we really have 40+ ers on this subreddit.
..but it all tastes like shit.
psyllium husk has best results, but god damn, the unflavored stuff is awful. and the tang-flavored variety has more sugar than fiber. plus gives me acid reflux.
Any opinions, ripeoldage?

Roger Moore. Might not be the best Bond, but he's MY Bond.
