I'm so old I Remember when:

[R2elk]

Thank you for your understanding, Elk! My keyboard has an uncanny ability to throw an E in front of my finger whenever I try to type an R. It substitutes an S when I wish to type an A. A P will appear in place of an O, and a C or a V will take the place of a space between words. I know my keyboard is secretly laughing at me while doing this, and is having a wonderful time, but honestly,

WE ARE NOT AMUSED! ​

It can be due to a build up of static electricity inside the keyboard. Of course it can also be due to "fat finger syndrome".

Mostly arthritis and related issues.

I can't remember the last time I saw a pay phone booth.

In the early 70's I walked into a phonebooth, put the receiver to my ear and suddenly realized someone had smeared ketchup on the earpiece. Got an earful. I don't know if the ones who did it were watching or not, the only one I could hear laughing was my cousin, who had driven up with me.

Bet you always looked first after that.

You're lucky it was ketchup and not something else.

I'm sure I did for a while at least.

I remember when at the end of all the driven in movies they ended with the two stars always had a really long romantic kiss.

 

[BigBlueHen53]

That was a pretty dirty trick. But also funny.

My cousin thought so.
