They couldn’t survive in a fast food restaurant.

It is mommy’s basement or a university professorship!

When I was in college that would have been a severe embarrassment if someone put that junk up!...wouldn’t have been up for even minutes.

And you know that students would whip-out a pen and "enhance" the cartoons in many different ways.

When I was a freewheelin' hippie (late '60's, early '70's) we sort'a prided ourselves in gettin' over the straights (had a different meaning back then) because they didn't have a clue what we were all about (WE were a little in the darl also, but we were gettin' high an' gettin' laid and it was DAMNED fun ! (when makin' love was just for fun ... those days are done .. etc.)

We chuckled and partied on LIFE's attempt to pictorially "educate" their readers what acid was and what it was like to "be on a trip"

It was all such a joke, a goof and FUN!


I'm beginning to suspect all this snowflake, care bear and whatever talk is the same as we were back then .... just goofin' on "the straights" that have no clue.

I am SO out of the loop, but I remember (almost all all of ) how I got here

Sadly, that is not the case. The Snowflakes really are this friggin' delicate.

Too many bright colors. The difficulty in making a choice was causing too much stress for the poor snowflakes. Pastels are more soothing ...

What they need is a slap in the face and a kick in the ass.

Would love to know just who it was that made it and put it up....surprised students didn't take it down actually....but then they're all ‘afeared’ of doing anything that offends someone.

When I was stressed I went out!

I'm sure that would be a Hate Crime today.

Sheesh. Who would think we would even read these things? It is why satire is nearly impossible these days.

If you think you are 'stressed' now, just wait a few years...

My son called 4am Friday.

“Hey dad, what’s it mean when you have a really bad sharp pain in your back?”

“I don’t know, kidney stones or appendicitis maybe. Either wake, wake up a roommate and have him drive you to the Er.

No snowflake there. Got a problem, deal with it. He didn’t even call the RA.

BTW, Dr Cyclotic called it. Kidney stones
