Not just "late       night" TV either, just regular prime time.              Not that I think it's a bad word or anything, but when I think back to when I       was younger, it was never something you heard on TV at all. Usually just       movies.              Jay              ... The past, the present, and the future walk into a bar. It was tense.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A46 2020/08/26 (Raspberry Pi/32)        * Origin: Northern Realms (1:229/664)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 123/131 226/30 227/114 702 229/101 424       SEEN-BY: 229/426 452 664 1016 240/5832 249/206 317 400 292/854 317/3       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200       PATH: 229/664 426           |
