Today I got my email from my local public library. I scanned the upcoming Christmas events.
STRICTLY FOR TEENS 13-17 ONLY. TAYLOR SWIFT NIGHT. LISTEN TO HER MUSIC NON STOP AND MAKE SWIFTIES FRIENDSHIP BRACELETS.
In my day young people had cabbage patch dolls. A "swiftie" sounds like an act of seized loot. I can imagine Arthur Daley saying "nice little swiftie and a nice little earner" in his used car business.
I'm so out of touch with 2023 thread

In 6 days everyone will be out of touch with 2023. The time to comment is short! The bell tolls.

You had dolls? Luxury. We had clothes pegs with faces painted on them. But you try to tell the young people of today that....lightcrystal wrote: ↑December 17th, 2023, 11:05 pm Today I got my email from my local public library. I scanned the upcoming Christmas events.

As of about 5 minutes ago, I'm also out of touch - forever and irrevocably - from 2023. Alas, I hardly knew thee.
I'll be out for a bit on this last weekend of April, but still checking in as I get the chance. I will try to follow up on Monday, with anything I can't do on the go.

Oh, quite! Left some excellent parting gifts - new books in the public domain. So thoughtful, I don't think my gift basket was on that level.
