Wow, how spoiled were you guys? A push up ice treat. Video games. Special blankets. I slept under a sheet, winter or summer.

Roge, You were lucky. We lived for three months in a paper bag in a septic tank. We used to have to get up at six in the morning, clean the paper bag, eat a crust of stale bread, go to work down the mill for fourteen hours a day week in week out, for sixpence a week. When we got home, out Dad would thrash us to sleep with his belt!

Yul,
Luxury!
We use to get up at 3 in the morning, clean the lake, eat handful of odd gravel, work 20 hours a day at mill for two pence a month then we would come home dad would beat us with a broken bottle, if we were Lucky.

#51 - yep, I remember - it made a little “ping” sound. Those were around in the early 70s when I was in grade school.

#27 you know what? F@#k reading. Here are some sweets instead. In a few years, you will be obese and uneducated and therefore without a job, but you can still blame it on the jews or the deep state. Amiright?

Philomena, whoa. I think that was the biggest leap in the history of IZ. From Life Savers to blaming Jews and the Deep State. It seems you’ve read some wacky material if it makes you relate two ideas like that.

#1 Great 90s nostalgia, considering Space Balls was released in 1987.
