Yes nothing makes me feel older. Especially when the person saying it doesn't seem that much younger than me. Call me miss if you're being polite but please stop with the ma'am! |

reminds me of a certain somebody who complains about kids going around dressed in shades of brown and carrying dunlop bags which they pay horrible amounts of money for now but which he used to be pissed off at having to wear when he was a kid.

There's an outhouse in most Finnish summer cottages…
Anyone here used a Telex machine? I once had a summer job at ship brokers', where one of my duties was to send telex messages my boss had prepared ready in those cute papertapes. Sometimes a machine would start ringing, and then there was somebody wanting immediate attention at the other end, kind of a stone age Messenger. The same company had one über moder machine, the telefax!!! |
