  • These are all from my childhood, my mom used to do them, usually while pointing at the thing. Often just to trick us into looking at something dumb so she could laugh, so now I do it too.

    When passing a graveyard: look! Dead people!

    When passing cows: look! Cows!

    When passing cornfields, though not all the time cuz there are so many where I grew up: I had a joke for you, but its too corny.

    When passing a sign that says STOP AHEAD: face palm stop a head!

    No u-turn sign: no, sign, you turn, I don’t want to!

    And a bunch of other little things like that. Needless to say the first long trip with new passengers is a blast for me.




  • Suddenly glad I’ve had no desire to play ps5 in ages.

    I should look and see if theres better options for ps4, as well, since mine is currently in need of repair anyway…

    Edit: I’m confused as to why this is getting downvoted? I don’t care about internet points, but I do care about being misunderstood. I’m glad because mine should be out of date enough to use this hack, and I should look to see if there’s a similar one for ps4 as long as it needs repair anyway?




  • Thats not… I feel like you weren’t alive yet when that transition happened.

    Because CDs are objectively better in basically every way than VHS and cassette, especially for consumers. No more tapes stuck in the player, no more rewinding, no more randomly unspooled tapes, no more twisted ribbons, no more seeking static, no more heat warping, etc. plus cds take up less space overall, and you can easily use many-disc cd changers.

    The market absolutely drove that transition, not manufacturers. VHS and cassette were still supported and produced for a LONG time after cds came about, because not everyone was willing to drop a ton of money to get their collection in a new format.
