Those stretchy tube tops with no straps that every girl had in the 70's.

If you were any bigger than an A cup and lifted your arms up over your head your boobs fell out.

  I never had a tube top, but I did briefly own a strapless sundress. WTF was I thinking? :rofl:

TV stations going off the air for the night playing the national anthem and then static or a test pattern.  Also only getting only a couple channels clear and several that were all staticy.   Now I get a couple hundred channels but frequently find there is nothing I want to watch on and overnights are filled with infomercials

Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

  I remember the infomercials of the late 80s/early 90s.  I used to leave the TV on all night
  during summers in my first apartment, because my college-student roommates were home for
  the summer and I felt safer with some noise and a picture on.  I sometimes woke up in the wee hours
  and saw the test pattern.  I learned a lot about makeup as well, though I never bought the stuff.  :autism:

I remember seeing Dr Gene Scott overnights in college and thinking it was some sort of skit on a comedy show the first time I saw it

Thanks. Forgot that once we had the national anthem at the end of the day.

Remember when people smoked everywhere, and the nonsmokers just had to suck it up?  :orly:

  Years ago, people could smoke in hospitals.  Even in the maternity ward,
   newborn baby  :bonnet:  in one arm, cigarette in the other hand, can you imagine?!
