More than I ever did! I think on the rare occasion that I did visit a building site I probably just clambered about a bit, nothing too adventurous or creative. Just being somewhere I knew that I probably shouldn't be was enough for me!
Yes! I feel exactly the same. I loved that Weapons director Zach Cregger gave Amy Madigan two possible back stories for Aunt Gladys, and he didn't know which one she picked. bsky.app/profile/elem...
Thanks for reposting, I missed this at first pass. I like how Aunt Gladys can't quite get lipstick right, but every artist's depiction I've seen so has done a great job of interpreting the horrible messiness of it.
It's thankfully rare but I shudder every time I come across the phrase 'the turn of the century', used to refer to the end of the 20th and into the 21st century.
Every time I hear something about 'paid protesters' I think to myself 'I bet there are a lot of people wondering where they can sign up for some of that action'!
I'm regularly grateful that I grew up in pre-Internet times.
Watching from across the Atlantic in Scotland the regularity with which school shootings happen, and mass shootings in general for that matter, in the US is both alarming and super weird to me.
Reasonable. I remember watching the 80s set Ashes to Ashes, the sequel to Life on Mars, and being annoyed that one of the characters was drinking out of a Rubik's Cube mug which felt like an anachronism because that sort of thing wouldn't have existed then. Yes, I should probably get out more!
Me also, and I feel the same regarding the smell et cetera. Looking back it's odd to me that I even smoked in the first place. The only thing I miss a little is the rituals, like using and maintaining my Zippo lighter.
Oh wow, that must have been super frustrating for you. I imagine that also added a level of unreality to any film or show you watched featuring kids roaming free.
Smoking in the cinema but only on one side of it, as if that would make any difference! Smoking everywhere in general in fact. Still with the cinema I remember going to see a film with my mum as the film was ending, we sat and waited for the film to start over. The past is indeed a foreign country.
A fair observation. I'm very grateful that I grew up in a time before the Internet and social media, I feel the experience that kids have growing up these days is VERY different from the one I had.
I still think of the 1990s as 'about 10 years ago'! I do sometimes think that it was odd that I grew up watching Champion the Wonder Horse on TV, a show made a fair bit before I was born.
I'm not sure how I feel about these kinds of questions on Reddit. Already a few decades ago is becoming some kind of mythical time that people aren't sure was real.
