  • Hi Guest - Did you know?
    Hot Topics is a Safe for Work (SFW) forum.

Attention Signs you're getting old.

The last time I went to the grocery store, yeah, I recognize a lot of people (it's that part of my brain that stores "do I have this stamp in my collection?") but they don't recognize me.
So an old woman.... she's a couple of years older than me / I (whatever) was trying to hoist a 40 pack of bottled water into her cart. She's all of shoulder high. She wanted four cases. I loaded her cart and told her to ask for carry-out. I saw her a bit later and she was working her ass off to push the cart.

When I was a kid, we had a console phonograph player which played 78 rpm, 45 rpm, 33 1/3 rpm, and 16 rpm.

the slowest speed was actually 16 2/3 RPM; and, it was the speed utilized by those people who listened to "Talking Books" back when they were on vinyl :=D:
 
^ Thanks. I didn't know that. I was just going on my memory of the speed selector. It was just a sliding vertical tab and 33 1/3 was the only fraction.

I get the quick shooting pain in my eyeball once in a while. My Doc told me it's remnants of a previous migraine or cluster headache. Scared the hell out of me. I thought it was the big one. :LOL:

15 or 20 years ago I sent away for a disposal underwear sample that advertised it looked just like the real thing or something like that. Not sure what brand it was but the ads went crazy for a few years.

For the record I do not need disposable underwear. I just was curious and it was free. :)

I had to wear a pair today!
 
I can't masturbate like I used to be able to. Sometimes it's only twice a day. Sometimes it's just twice a week. My record in my younger years was 11 times in one day.

But how many of you have listened to big black 78 rpm records?

Had a Victrola (guts only) in my clubhouse as a kid. The clubhouse was actually the loft above my late grandfather's carpenter shop, which he built into what had been the barn. Not only did I love the 78s, but I introduced other friends to them as they came to play.

My favorite was "Carolina in the Mornin'", and the flip side was "Toot, Toot, Tootsie, Goodbye!"

I still smile when I remember the smart-alecky lyrics of the latter. "If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail."

Goodbye indeed. :LOL:

"Watch for the mail.
I'll never fail.
If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail."

I'm old. I didn't even have to Google that."

Oh, and: "Nothin' could be finna than to be in Carolina in the... mor-r-r-nin'.
Nothin' could be sweeter than your Sweetie when you meet her in the... mor-r-r-r-nin'"

Didn't have to Google that, either. :cry:
 
^ That's it. I've never heard it sung by Al Jolson.

It seems my memory isn't as good as I thought. I got the second line wrong.

My straight Nephews always used to sing...

Nothing could be finna than to be in her VAGINA in the mor-r-r-nin! :roll:

Actually in chorus they sounded pretty good

Is this the song?

Indeed, although I remember it more up tempo.

Here is Jolson singing the other side. Forgive the static picture, but they do that to avoid showing that he was performing the songs in blackface usually. Different era.

It has been remastered, so has extraordinary sound quality, but loses something since the scratchy quality was the character of 78s from the very beginning.

 
Yes indeed, we do not want to see the blackface.
These performances are often especialy good because the singer must get it perfect first time. No overdubs, no retakes, you get one chance with the old recording studio.

That's why you never hear any Taylor Swift 78's
 
A while ago Someone asked if the Internet was down. I refreshed the page I was reading and checked my mail. Firefox and T-bird are working. The Internet is working.
Ok. He turned on the Roku and was getting nothing. I went to look and hey, why don't you turn the TV on. "It was on."
Somewhere along the way Someone hit the TV's power button. And it didn't matter. The Roku's power light was on, the TV on HDMI-1. The Roku had crashed.
I pulled the power plug for a moment and TaDa!!! it rebooted. All is well and Someone is happy watching the Nascar race.
