I was hoping for erotic fan fiction myself

This made me spit my drink out!

You dirty biatch Tanni ... I like it.

I enjoyed it; it was very sweet. Loved the bit about the British not tipping - when we visited America my Dad asked for the tip to be removed at a Sizzler because it was self service. Very awkward 40 seconds

Oh man! That's cringe lol. Us bloody brits haha.

 

[Steph1710]

Okay done. It was written in about 20 minutes so I hope your expectations are low.

Oh, I loved it! So, so wholesome.

Can the next chapter be us finding an abandoned building somewhere, and it being fun until we discover something horrible??

@aot - FGG has set the stakes high for our first meeting. Really, we're going to sit there like two old people, moaning about our health issues lol.

I'm going to visit Barcelona again this summer. Maybe one day I'll have the balls to actually move there, although my Castilian is definitely rusty and my Catalan is even worse :/

Are you already living in Spain?

I sometimes think of moving to Barcelona too. But I may find it too noisy after a while

Unfortunately not! Honestly, I'd love to move anywhere in Spain. Barcelona's just one of my favorite cities, so I've been visiting a lot. I think I probably couldn't live there my entire life because it's definitely very busy, but it'd be a nice change for a while I'd miss my family and friends though :/

Funnily enough, my first idea was having aot pull up in a Convertible, turn down Will Smith's "Miami" (before you could hear it) then taking you both to Cassadaga to mess with the "Psychics" there. I chose this instead because:

1) My writing is shot now and this could be written quickly. Cheesy is just easier to write.

2) I am originally from Florida (same coast as aot but not close to where he is), though I haven't lived there in 20 years.

3) I'm fond of both of you and I guess this is how it comes out .

 

[Steph1710]

Yay, I remember Sunny D! I was a Florida girl myself.

Yeah - orange Sunny D was way better than the yellow one.

I tried again it a few years back, it tastes nothing like it used to. I guess they've taken all the sugar out?

Food was terrible in the 90s. Tasty, but terrible.

Sales had halved by 2001, and the drink was redesigned and re invented in March 2003 as "SunnyD". In the United Kingdom, SunnyD was again relaunched in March 2009, with a new formulation containing 70% fruit juice and no artificial ingredients or added sugar. However, amid declining sales, the product was further reformulated in April 2010, as a lower priced beverage containing only 15% fruit juice.

It could be an old wives tale, but I think they had to change the recipe because they were turning kids orange

90's food was great! Felt so cool finding these guys in my lunch box

There was a product in the US called Tang, some sort of orange or tangerine flavour, which never seemed to dissolve when stirred. It did not taste like orange or tangerine.

Then in the 60s some old hippies put together a catalogue called, The Last Whole Earth Catalogue, which contained anything you wanted to know and purchase. On the back cover was a picture of the earth taken from space by astronauts, under it the caption read:

Today's urine, tomorrow's Tang.

Man, I'm a kid of the 90s, but I loved Tang. My parents kept it stocked for some reason.

I think it was high in vitamin C, which gave it a "healthy" factor over Kool-aid mixes popular at the time.

My Dad told me that back in his day they used to pour Tang powder into a bottle of vodka to drink at university parties lol.

Ah yes, vitamin C in drinks so sweet that they can almost induce diabetes immediately. But hey, you'll avoid that head cold if you also avoid people with head colds.

We had Tang every day for breakfast and then we would have our Flintstone's chewable vitamin. Both probably had artificial flavors and dyes. For some reason Kool-Aid was ok because it said Fruit Punch flavor and it wasn't a Coke. My mom tried her best to make sure we had good nutrition with the limited information they had back then.

Flintstone's chewable vitamin.

Now that's a jolt of nostalgia...

I had a friend who would snack on Flintstone's vitamins when his parents weren't around! I always wanted to, but I wouldn't dare lol.

I know I date myself with that comment. ‍:-D

Oh, certainly not. Or at least if that's the case, then I'm dating myself. Flintstone vitamins were the OG that found its way into every childhood.

Now you've gone and done it. Kool-Aid, mom brought the packs home mostly in the summer, I guess she figured it was a summer drink because it said Kool on the pack. Me and me brother would get out the big glass container and start mixing, something like 5 cups of sugar, 2 packs of Kool-Aid. Now that I think about it I'm pretty positive we were climbing the trees and walls so wired up on sugar. Damn good fun them days.

 

[Steph1710]

Right, I have a fun new game for us all!

I was looking through some photos, and found two of me aged 19 (I am now 31). So come on guys! Let's be having ya 'old skool' photos. I want them to be at least a decade old.

I'll add mine to begin with. Excuse the heavy makeup and dreadfully thin eyebrows. Who would have thought, people would want thicker ones 15 years down the line. Oh, and thank goodness for braces! Sorted my awful teeth out - never suck ya thumb people. It leads to expensive dental care later on.

 

[kingsfan]

Too bad MySpace removed all its old profiles. I'd have some real gems to post.

 

[Zugzug]

It never quite worked out. Different interests, lots of deep philosophical disagreements -- she thought eating toilet paper was virtuous, while I didn't. And that's just scratching the surface.

Challenge accepted @Steph1710 I wouldn't say you look so much older than in the photos from a few years ago. Have you found the fountain of youth by any chance?

Anyway, here's a baby photo from 1990.

And a photo with family from 2000 (holiday in Lausanne, Switzerland).

Dude, you were so cute. Can I retroactively pinch your baby cheeks?

Brilliant! I had to read it to my mum.

That's is SO CUTE!! Nothing much has changed

Yeah, I can't find loads of my old photos. The ones I posted are a rarity.

People always think I'm about 22-24. No one believes I'm 32 this year

@Christiaan, this was taken last year when I was 30. Not a very flattering picture, but this is why people still treat me like a child if they don't know me. It can actually be incredibly frustrating.

Can you tell that my dad used to cut my hair?

And I was either very bad at math or a different question was asked because I was six and not five at the time.

The sixth finger was a middle finger from your other hand.
