Question: What do you remember that 95% of us have forgotten?

Since I don’t know 95% of you I can only guess…..

What happens to single guys when they get older?

Copiers were exceptionally expensive when I was a kid and so schools and most businesses used a machine like this if they had to make a small number of copies.

Cigarette ads on the rear cover of EVERY magazine:

Elly De La Cruz throws out Javier Baez with mind-boggling 98 mph throw - New York Post

Jet magazine and the accompanying “Jet Beauty”

A magazine started in 1951 that highlighted the African American community in the United States in an era where Black issues and people were not reported on in the mainstream. This was a weekly magazine until 2009 and it was in print until 2014. While it’s now in digital form (along with its companion magazine Ebony) The Jet Beauty was one of the few places that attractive African American models could be seen, although the sexist nature of photos was always a minor controversy.

Porno films that came with a “free projector”:

Can you fly an American flag in the UK in your own private property there? What is the UK’s government stance on that? And if yes, do you also have to fly the UK flag or the American flag can fly solo?

Koogle:

At one time, peanut butter was deemed not to have enough flavor and so Koogle, a flavored peanut spread, was introduced. Similar to Nutella, Koogle lasted into the late 1990s when dietary changes and poor sales rendered it extinct.

A friend and I almost set his house on fire when we were watching one of these and it overheated and melted. I wasn’t allowed to come to his house again because of it even though it wasn’t MY projector.

When I buy a house, do I automatically own all items the previous owner failed to remove from the property?
