    @benroyce @TheBreadmonkey @overholt My daughter once asked if I’d ever known “a hippy”, and I didn’t even know where to begin. 🤣. I showed her pictures of her grandparents and me in our 70s gear. She laughed. A lot. 🤷🏻‍♀️🥳

        @TheBreadmonkey @benroyce @overholt "People born in the late 1900s" has a certain sting to it.

          "born in the 1900s" is apparently ancient now. this poor dad just driving his kids to school gets absolutely roasted for it:

            I was watching a show that had a flashback to 1995 like it was a long time ago.

            Oh.

                        unfortunately the laughter doesn't last long
