Boy, I think it's about time I tell you the difference between a man and a woman. A woman isn't a woman unless she's pretty. And a man isn't a man unless he's ugly.

I remember being absolutely certain that he'd kill himself.

During the chase or when he got home?

man why you even got to do a thing?
gently caress yes I remember, it was the middle of game 5 of the NBA finals of the Houston Rockets vs the New York Knicks. poo poo was going down and they decided to interrupt it with this bullshit car chase. I was in the 4th grade and wearing my Hakeem Olajuwon jersey and out of nowhere this poo poo.

Houston ended up winning. Clutch City, baby.

2 years later, in science class, the verdict was announced over the school's intercom. People went nuts. The 90's were nuts.

I do remember the verdict, we had a juice is loose party (with gin and juice of course) in college while watching it live, I don't think we even had to skip class because time zones

The verdict was awesome. We heard it during recess on a radio someone brought. For some unknown reason, I kept telling everyone he was innocent. I don't know why I was so adamant about it since I didn't actually pay attention to the trial. When the verdict was announced, everybody let out a gasp. Not me. I was jogging around the playground pumping my fist like a retarded Kirk Gibson yelling "I told you he was innocent! I told you he was innocent!" A friend tried to correct me by saying "not guilty" and "innocent" were not the same thing. I would have none of that.

Nevermind that shit here comes Mingo!
Watching it on TV. I remember we'd change channels between like 5 different networks, and on each one it looked like OJ was driving in a different direction. To 11 year old me that was the height of comedy.

I was also shocked as poo poo, because up to that point OJ was literally seen as the nicest man in show business.

So where does the Oklahoma City bombing fit in there?

I don't remember what I was doing, but I was 8 years old so probably nothing important or interesting.
