I remember going to cattle auctions with my great grandpa and eating at the cafe attached to the sale barn. The cafe and sale barn are still there and the food is still good.

When my cousin was like 8 he had a bunch of those gi joe Barbie sized “action figures” and one time he had set them all up naked in ways where they were definitely loving. It was a gay gi joe orgy on my grandparents floor and the clothes were all neatly tucked away in the play kit

I thought my idiot friend's racism was comically outdated and that such beliefs were just remnants from America's dark past.

When I was younger...

I just knew we could never have a worse president than Richard M. "Tricky Dick" Nixon.
When I was a young man, I was hopeful that there could never be a worse president than Ronald "benchmark for evil" Reagan.
When I was middle-aged man, I thought WTF! Why are we saddled with this draft dodging coked-up frat boy Shrub?
Now I'm in my twilight years and I just weep bitter tears while awaiting the kind embrace of oblivion.

We're still drilling away; wireless will never not be a mercurial mistress.

But once they get that light-based technology up and running, then I guess we'll be in the clear?

Throwing off the shadow of a better man.
When I was younger I was at a daycare that was run out of some lady's house. She fed all 6 of the kids lunch, and then told us all to help clean up. I didn't know the difference between a dishwasher and a trash compactor, and threw all the plates in the latter.
I never went back to that daycare, and for decades I assumed I was kicked out for the plate thing, but I found out recently that it was because my dad picked me up that day, and found out the lady who ran the daycare was black.

One time this brown skinned kid brought a toy gun to school and he didn't get shot

Another time a friend and I tabletopped the smelly kid into some mud

I convinced the class snitch to tell the recess monitor that the deaf kid was throwing gang signs

I remember my first sale barn. My dad told me to sit on my hands and not move. If I had an itch, it can wait between cattle. I could see all the old men with their absurd method of betting. Scratching a nose, tapping their knee, nodding their head.

The attached cafe was awesome. As they always are.

I remember being sad that a dude would prod the animals when they were being shown but now that I've lived on this farm/ranch my whole life pretty much I understand now that cattle are hella dumb and have super thick hides. You ever tried giving a cow a shot? You gotta hit it like that adrenaline shot in Pulp Fiction.

When I was in middle school, I went biking through a local forest preserve with my friend and his brother. This forest preserve had a reputation of being a hangout for creeps and delinquents because of a few incidents, but we had ridden through it many times and never encountered anything weird. One day we decided to take a break at a clearing with some picnic tables. This small narrow clearing was otherwise surrounded by a thick wall of trees and thus was secluded. We sat down at one table and about 30 feet away was another one where two or three big, creepy looking older guys (probably early to mid 30s) were sitting. We saw them looking over at us but didn't think too much of it until two of them got up simultaneously and started walking toward us without saying anything. A mental alarm went off in our heads in unison and we immediately jumped up, picked up our bikes, and hauled rear end out of there. To this day I still wonder if we were actually just freaking out about nothing, but it's probably a good thing that we didn't stick around to find out.

Ooh, I have another one.

Also during my middle school years, I was staying the night over at my best friend's house. His house was on a secluded and somewhat wooded street that was lined with a few houses but not part of any subdivision, so at night it already had a somewhat creepy vibe. His parents would often spend their evenings out gambling or something or other and would leave us home alone. We were upstairs in his bedroom playing N64, and his dad called us saying he was heading home and asked if we wanted McDonald's or whatever. About 20 minutes later, we heard the front door open and close. We paused our game and started heading downstairs, but something was off - we didn't hear any movement whatsoever from downstairs. We called out for his dad, no answer. We slowly crept downstairs and saw that the front door was open with only the outer screen door closed, even though both had previously been closed. For some reason we were not completely freaked out by this point and we decided to check the rest of the house for him. Turns out he wouldn't actually be home for another 20-30 minutes. Somebody had been in the house, and we have no idea who or for how long.
