That was after school detention, no?

In my HS that would have looked like 12th grade english. That could have easily been filmed in central ohio east of columbus about 18 miles or so...

( i graduated HS in '88)

Yeah. It looked like a hollywood depiction of a tougher high school (aside from looking about 5 years older than they actually are).

Reminds me of a social media post where Zoomers saw videos like this and went "OMG, they look so old."

Then a few weeks ago, this video was suggested to me from VSauce.

My sister just shared a photo she found of my Dad in 1992 when he was 52. Yes, people for sure used to look older.

I think I posted about it in the 'shit that makes you feel old' thread, but I am about to be the age my step-dad was when he met my mom, 39. Looking at photos from that time and yea, he looked way old. But I remember friends of his looking not as old as he looked in my faded memories, so it really just seems like the times in which you live dictate what 'old' looks like.

There is something so enormously creepy about that. Like banishment from society awful.

Don't know if there are any twins on the board, and I don't want to offend anyone... but I have a good friend whose sisters are identical twins, and she told me that the twins would talk to each other in their sleep from separate rooms!

Perhaps an exaggeration, but still.

At least the babies know where they can get a kidney from.

If that picture is representative, the slightly better looking twins properly paired up.

And their baby is also better looking.

Damn. Saw a similar video one time on Reddit. It was two cops in a shootout and the one in the back essentially executed his partner point blank.

Corsicana gets a shoutout in probably my favorite Hayes Carll (Gates Carlo to the initiated) songs, "Rivertown."

Whatever you do don't watch the movie Corsicana.

So I sent this to a neighbor from Corsicana and this was her response:

Very cool…she was a true gem to the city. Her name was Babette Samuels (we are/were FB friends)…the R is her daughter Robin. I grew up going to temple with she and her late husband, Irvin…and my stepdad’s name was Erwin so people confused them often. My stepdad is buried in the cemetery she looked after…she lived a long life and no one in that town ever had a bad word to say about them.

And the funeral home they were at is run by my 6th grade bf’s family. Small town shit

I just had my wife read it. I was behind her when the song started and now we're in tears at the "dry humping" I did to the song.

Maybe not the most appropriate time to swamp?

I’d argue it was the most appropriate time.

Man, that's hilarious.

That's not a song, it's a chimpanzee randomly smacking a casio keyboard.

Does someone with 1.3 million followers just decide he has to snipe at one a day or something?

He shit, hard, on the O's in April and May, and is pretending in september he didn't do that. Shit on their version of the process, etc, and then they started to win and O's fans won't let it go. Which I support. Olney is a doofus.

Well, in fairness to the situation (not necessarily involving Olney), Elias didn't get back nearly enough for the value that Jorge Lopez represented to Baltimore's postseason chances.

He also publicly shit on the O’s for giving Mussina’s uniform # to Rutschman this year when it was been worn by multiple members of the team since Mussina left and he never complained then.

I was ok w the Lopez deal. Getting 4 arms back for a 28 year old former starter with a 5 ERA who happens to have gotten hot this year as a closer. But I trust that Elias knows what he’s doing and I don’t.

I mean, sure he's good at what he does, but he still traded a badly needed commodity for this year's playoff chances in hopes to catch lightning in a bottle a few years down the road.

As for Moose? Angelos was an ignorant son of a bitch when it came to the proper valuation of starting pitching.

A competently run organization never would've let him walk...
