      Yeah I remember when the absolute craziest thing anyone I knew had seen was the video of the planes hitting the trade centers and there being extra long lines for gasoline the day or two after. Really was such a simpler time, at least in rural white areas.

          I dunno if you were a stoner or not but remember when weed was talked about in hushed tones as though smoking a joint was literal sedition? I mean for good reason.... people used to get their lives destroyed over it pretty regularly. That's one thing that's changed for the better I guess. You used to have to put your nuts on the line to get high. Kids will never understand.

            lol, amen. i'm in my 40s and it's remarkable how insanely sketchy some of the shit i did was to buy weed. tom segura has this great bit about it where he explains to his children "daddy used to get in cars with strangers". like just so i could go home, close all the window blinds, and rip a little pipe before eating cereal and watching cartoons to have a few hours before bed where i forgot how shitty my job was.

              Man I'm in my 20s and I still remember all the sketchy shit I used to do with my friends to get weed. I swear we were going to be kidnapped or murdered half the time. Luckily it's legal to grow your own weed for personal consumption in my country so those days are over for me.

      Yeah, we were that youngsters that got the great evolution of games when they started to be something. You got Dune 2 when we were little and get the new shit today. Great spectrum.
