When I was a kid I had a record player and usually played a particular record that had various artists on it Like Johnny Horton (Battle of New Orleans) and Elvis Presley (Blue Suede Shoes).
Now 40+ years later, it’s usually stuff like Frog Leap Studios (Leo Morrachelli https://www.youtube.com/user/leolego/videos) mainly so I don’t have to hear my cats screaming around the house in their nightly turbo mode.
I still like Johnny Horton, but anything from Elvis makes my eye twitch.
“our” pants, comrade.
“World’s Best Dad” mug with the word “Best” crossed out?

First civilian
In 1984, President Ronald Reagan announced the Teacher in Space Project, and McAuliffe learned about NASA’s efforts to find their first civilian, an educator, to fly into space.[20] NASA wanted to find an “ordinary person,” a gifted teacher who could communicate with students while in orbit.[6][15] McAuliffe became one of more than 11,000 applicants.[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christa_McAuliffe
In my circle of friends when I was younger it was Monty Python. I love their stuff especially the movies, but a lot of my “group” didn’t seem to get it.
I have different friends now.
The handcuff thing. Being on a first name basis with the local cops is pretty common in a small town like where I lived for a bit when I was an angry teen.
Instructions unclear. Anyone know how to clean a popcorn ceiling?
Me too. the local police even stopped handcuffing me behind my back because I’d just step over so my hands were in front again.
I’m holding out for the giggity hertz.

Why do you keep starting new accounts to post this site?
Squirrels. Cute as hell in the wild, not so much in my attic. They are tiny little destructive machines.
Unrelated but have you looked on Anna’s Archive? They have a bunch of Bande dessinée on there that may be what you’re looking for.
There are still many unanswered questions - most importantly, who was Roger of Tetbury?
Roger d’Ivry maybe? Although he was a bit earlier than the 14th century, so maybe not.
At the Conquest, however, the 23-hide manor of TETBURY was held by Siward, while Upton was held by Aluric as tenant to King Edward, and in 1086 both estates belonged to Roger d’Ivry. (fn. 3) They had apparently formed part of the estates centred on Beckley (Oxon.) which Roger acquired by gift of Robert Doyley; (fn. 4) Robert had included tithes at Tetbury in his endowment of the chapel of St. George in Oxford castle. (fn. 5) Roger’s estates were apparently forfeited to the Crown but it has been suggested that Tetbury passed to his nephew Ascelin Goel, for Ascelin of Tetbury was mentioned c. 1100. https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/glos/vol11/pp264-269
He also had a son named Roger Perceval that had inherited his lands after his death. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Perceval
First computer, Tandy Coco 2 (TRS-80) in 1988 or 89.
First phone (other than a landline) was a Motorola bag phone around 1996(?)
What will probably happen is Trump will say a hundred stupid things no-one bats an eye to. Biden will screw up one soundbite and conservative media will twist and beat that dead horse until it get reincarnated.
