twinkietwin94 July 12, 2017 Share July 12, 2017 Oh geez look at all the millenials LOL, my siblings are both millenials I don't have trouble with millenials, it's the next group I have a problem with lol. Though I gotta say I'm starting to feel like we Gen Xers are part of what's becoming the lost/forgotten generation, but if that means no one's picking on us then I'm okay with that 1 Link to comment

Dopeydwarf July 12, 2017 Share July 12, 2017 (edited) Oh, yes! And all of the westerns, and the horror flicks on Sat night . Dracula, Wolfman, Frankenstein, and we were even scared of Rodan! Ice cream sodas made by the druggist (drug stores had long counters, and you could get something to eat.) Pop was 7 cents and you could take the bottle back and get 2 cents for it. I once stepped on a thistle, and sat down to pull the thorny part out of my foot, found a 50 cent piece laying on the ground and was able to but penny candy for the entire neighborhood (about 10 kids). School lunches were da bomb, all homemade everything. Edited July 12, 2017 by Dopeydwarf 1 Link to comment

George Masnick, of the Harvard Joint Center for Housing Studies puts this generation in the timeframe of 1965 to 1984, in part because it's a neat 20-year period.

Honestly I turned 40 last year and for me it was just an excuse to party. Actually it's the only time I've remembered how old I am, lol I usually have to calculate my age from one of my siblings by adding the difference bc I remember theirs. I've always felt young though and I figure that's the important part. Oregon Trail ftw along with Carmen Sandiego, still love those games. We have the OT board/card game. It's nearly impossible to make it to the end. 2 Link to comment

frenchtoast July 13, 2017 Share July 13, 2017 Let's move generational talk to the Small Talk, shall we? Thank you. (And making mention of it in a mocking way is also not great. There are worse ways, but still.) A reminder, you can't quote, but you can copy the "address" of a quote by clicking on the timestamp under the poster's name and copying the address. Then you start a new post in a topic and just paste and it will look like this: But I was lazy and took from this page. I'll put the instructions elsewhere, too. 2 Link to comment

Thanks! Hadn't seen that. Being bluntly honest, it reminded me of those facebook videos of that toddler girl who is clearly fed snippets of lines, which she delivers like a mini bratty Kardashian, but she's so expressive it's pretty funny. She's the one with a twin who doesn't do the videos anymore, and she blames "Charlie" for everything. I'll have to find a link. So yeah, Yuko is adorable, but that interview looked to me like it was cut every three seconds to feed her lines, and she still isn't the greatest dancer. 1 Link to comment
LilRedHerring July 13, 2017 Share July 13, 2017 Bitch Moment Ahead: Like 90% of the 91-2 squad would be on WW today! I feel like the attitude towards weight and what the DCC are willing to work with when someone has a few extra pounds changed between Seasons 1 & 2. They worked with Brook Sorensen in Season 1 but then cut this really pretty dark haired girl (Victoria? Gina?) who had bigger hips without even giving her a chance to lose the weight in Season 2. Anyone else notice anything similar? The girls' media exposure is so different compared to when the show began and the addition of HD certainly alters current standards which are huge factors but I felt like I saw a shift earlier than HD times. 3 Link to comment

EricaShadows July 14, 2017 Share July 14, 2017 I really liked the Rangerette 2017 camp but there were a few girls that I saw where I was thinking, "Geez, don't you know what's needed to be on this team?" One girl had such bad kicks I felt sorry for her. Another girl wasn't in the best shape and, while she had better kicks than the first girl who drew my attention, they still weren't good enough to get her on the team where kicking one's nose is practically a requirement. I'm going to watch a few others in that series to see what's what. Link to comment
QuiteCalM July 14, 2017 Share July 14, 2017 That movie was utterly annoying to me, and I can't pinpoint exactly why. Maybe it just boiled down to the dance moves. I find that drill team precision thing to be thoroughly weird. So there's that. and then there are the handful of girls who are so freaking stupid that holding their mouths closed while walking is as elusive as quantum theory, because all that they've been forced to learn and retain in life is how to take a pretty selfie. I dunno, it was just irritating to my senses in a way that DCC MTT is not. Link to comment
