And it’s Danish, too! That might not mean a lot to you, but we’re a small country, so it feels really cool when we get recognized globally.
I mean, nowadays we’ve made a nice mark on the movie industry, with Mads Mikkelsen, Jamie Lannister, Winding-Refn, and movies about drinking winning Oscars, but that was different 24 years ago.
I can hear the laugh
The absence of a cat implies nothing is there. So the opposite of a cat is nothing (specifically nothing where a cat should have been).
So, another acceptable answer would be “what is up? Nothing.”
… Is it not normal where you guys are to go to the library to read or study? Don’t they have like reading corners there?
Go back to try again, now that you have confirmation the old password was, in fact, correct:
Wrong password
She didn’t think he wanted a picture with her. She wanted a picture to remember him. And possibly as a way to get his phone number. She was crushing a little bit on the cool sound guy.
This is incredibly visually pleasing to me. The look of the dice, the fact that they all landed on the same value, the yellow lighting contrasting the blue, is all just scratching every arbitrary itch in my head, as well as reminding me of a cozy evening of playing dice with my grandparents.
Your lucky throw is now this strangers phone background.
Scandinavia, like that guy guessed, is right
In my town, there are mostly electric vehicles nowadays. I was out walking along a larger road in my neighborhood when I noticed a bus and two cars passing each other, and it suddenly hit me that earlier in my life, that would have been a very noisy affair, but it wasn’t. I also realized how much the world used to smell like gas. And does anyone else remember the rainbow colored gas puddles you used to see and smell in parking lots? I don’t remember the last time I saw any of those.
Then I realized there is a world where my kids can grow up outside of noise pollution, cigarette smoke and car fumes, and it made me a little more hopeful about the future.
Usually t-shirts and hoodies, vinyls, armbands and autographed drum skins are the essentials, I feel like. And then every band has some assorted rotation of merch on top of this, but that’s not universal for every band: beanies, mugs, CDs, keyrings, baseball caps, posters, ashtrays, weed pipes and bongs… These fall into the two categories of merch that caters to the target audience, and merch that is bought in bulk from www.weprintyourcrap.com.
For what it is worth, CDs are definitely pretty rare, because it’s just an obsolete media. The CD was convenient before phones became even more convenient. Vinyls, on the other hand, are very popular and often occur because they’re decorative and playing them is considered an experience.
For reference, I mainly go to pop punk/rock/indie/metal shows
On an unrelated note, H
Seize the means of production, but first, seize the means of test and staging
The OA season 2 for me lmao
Tough call.
Probably the PS2, for access to the entire PSX and PS2 library. But I’m afraid that it would feel dated if I actually went back it - I haven’t played one in years, and it was my childhood console gen, so it’s possible it’s the nostalgia speaking.
The inverse of what?
I’m surprised you put the guns away. I’d assume they’d just accumulate, and by the end of the day, all Americans would be carrying about 16 or 17 different firearms.
Then at the end of the year, you drive your 17 * 365 to the car dealership and trade the lot in for a bigger SUV.
How the Dutch do you just get to take an unplanned week off?
And you know, in a way it goes even deeper, because for her parents, at least half of their life and frame of reference took place in the 1800’s. When she was born, 10 year olds would have their earliest memories be of the late 1890s. And the adults around her would be able to vividly remember and discuss events they were present for way back in to the 1850s or even earlier, depending on how much contact she had with old people.
Also, I’m in my late 20s now, and I recently had the startling realization that the old people I remember from my childhood don’t really exist anymore. When I was a kid, old people used to be prim and proper. They dressed a certain way, much more formal and traditional. They weren’t all uptight, but they had an idea of what’s proper or not, and wouldn’t be afraid to tell you. They were typically more quiet and less outspoken. All the women knew how to cook and sew, and all the men knew how to do woodwork and make leather shoes shine forever.
I had this realization the other day walking through my city, when I suddenly noticed how all the old people don’t seem that old anymore. They’re all relaxed and casual, dressing up in colors. They actually smile at you on the street and seem to have a sense of humor. And then it hit me: they’re not even the same generation. Old people are the kids of the old people I remember. They grew up with the early prototype of modern rock and pop. They were hippies and greasers. I think the end of WWII and the invention of modern pop culture reaching out beyond the cities really made a cut down between those two generations, the current old people and their parents.
This comment ran longer than expected. Thanks for coming to my ted Talk.
And if it reads 70s music records, it could be a disc disk disco drive!
