Boomers

Me, out looking for some 'poontang':
-
I guess I'm a Boomer tho I'm younger than Steve, Nipper and DH
1. Racquetball.....Never played
2. Cop Dramas...no
3. Sandals with socks? Are you fucking kidding?
4. Potpourri. See above
5. Diamonds. That's the wife's territory. She's considerably younger than I am
6. Checks. Hate em. Only when I have to..
7. Cruises. Yes, we've done numerous. the best was a 10 day Med cruise from Istanbul to Mykonos to Athens to Malta to Catalina to Salerno and Rome where we spent a few extra days.. Can't recommend it highly enough..
8. Reader's Digest. No, not since i was a kid in the 60s
9. Home Shopping networks: What?
10. Weird salads. lol no
11. Golf. I used to be able to hit a golf ball a long freakin way. Problem is, it always took a severe right turn out about 250 yds.. If I hit a golf ball looking due west, it may land in one of you Ohio boy's yard or pool.. 34217 is my hood
12. 24 hour news . Used to love CNN back in the time of their inception.. Now? No.. No, no no no
13. Game shows. lol, no
14. Jean Shorts. Not since 73-77
15. Catalogs. no
16. Chain Restaurants. Poblanos, Cody's
17. Crocs. Nope
18. Fall for Conspiracy Theories. Not unless they're true
19. skinny jeans. Never. I wore spandex and ripped shirts a long time ago on stage and looked damn good doing so..
21. Iron everything? Nothing, Hang dry or the dryer
22. Knick knacks. Yeah, guilty here. my wife and I have been lucky/blessed enough to have been to a lot of cool places around the planet. I generally pick up a small cool memento from each place. My studio desks are littered with them.
23. Yahoo Mail. Fuck Yahoo. Seriously, fuck yahoo with Nipper's dick
24. Inspirational Quotes. On occasion.. See #23 ?
25. Airbrushed T-shirts. Who makes this shit up? lol
26. China in my cabinet. I think we have a very old cool cab with stuff in it. Again, not my forte.. Check with the spousal unit
27. Going to the Mall. Not without my gun
28. Eat processed foods. We all do ?
29. Social email. I don't even know what this means
30. Land Line. dear lord..
31. Keep paper bills. Have to
32. TYPE IN ALL CAPS? FUCK NO!!!!
33. Use Mrs. Dash seasoning. No.. Blackened seasoning
34. Patterned Wallpaper. Thought this was a computer question.. I may be in the wrong thread..
35. Cable TV Package. Huh?
36. Infomercials.. Now I'm certain I am
37. Buy AVON products. Seriously, what the actual fuck?
38. Drink Juice from Concentrate. NO. Tropicana is less than 5 miles away and the wife's brother works there so, it's like the fish we catch, couldn't be fresher and probably more chemically contaminated
39. Have throw pillows on Bed. Yep, spousal unit's fault. Hate those fuckin things
40. Eat toast with no butter. Yes, and I pan fry my toast before making a Dagwood sammich..

What is Axe's big issue with Yahoo? It is just a way to get your email?
AOL on the other hand canceled me because I gave shit to a big pussy of a Steeler fan on the old board that these board emanated from. They are the ones that should get the Fuck You.

But like you said AOL is just another way to get your email. It's more comfortable to me then Gmail for example.

I'm in on a few of those things and don't care about or don't like others. But the ones that I don't like or care about if I do see somebody using them it's usually an older person.
My biggest hatred is of the landline.
On the other hand I have been known to watch entire infomercials have actually purchased a few items from them.

Yea, it was not their email service that was the issue. Like you say, it is just another way to get your email. It was all the other stuff...like the old sports talk forums over which they wielded a Stazi like control.

Ever read my comparison of golf vs racquetball?
In RB a rollout is the perfect shot. In golf it is the most frustrating thing for an otherwise great looking putt.
In golf your worst mishit can go in woods, water, deep rough or just plain out of bounds. In RB your worst mishit can be the greatest shot of the day (see rollout above).
In RB you only have to carry one club as long as you learn every way it can be used effectively. In golf you have multiple clubs and often select the wrong one for what you think you need to do with it. And even then you don't always choose the most effective way of using it.
In golf you have to walk all over a course to hit the ball again, sometimes in a rotten hitting position like in sand or high grass. In racquetball often you just have to make a step or two one way or another while you wait for it to arrive back at the perfect hitting position.
In golf you have to be sure you have found the correct ball when it has left your sight. In RB if you can't find the only ball out there, then it's time to give up the game.??

Racquetball is far easier and more fun to play in less time while using up more calories. Golf just sucks the life out of you and the $$ out of your wallet.?

Number 6 it's ironic that Sears that started out as a mail order firm has been put out of business by a mail order firm.

True that Steve.
#2. Rabbit ears.
#5. First TV on the block allowed all the kids to come over once a week to watch Lucy & Desi.
#7. Parents scooped the cream off the top to use in coffee.

Oh yeah.
Rabbit ears or the old battered lazy-X antenna on the roof.
My dad repaired TVs since the 50s and an old lady gave him an old RCA TV that always needed fixed, he fixed it and we had the first color TV on the street. "The following show is brought to you in living color"..... Remember that ? Disney on Sunday night. It was a big deal.
A simpler but fun time.

It was far simpler for my grandparents for sure. No spam calls from India, pfishing emails, exorbitant internet and cell phone fees, no exorbitant TV bills, a car you could buy for less than $1000 (though it had higher maintenance needs). etc.
