Hot Play

I remember the days when I would go down and play Phoenix or Galaxians for hours or heat my hand up on the stove.  Just one more before we leave the worst of New Zealand.

    Gen X’s attention span is so short we can’t cook 2-minute noodles without electronic entertainment close to hand.

    Gen X still eat 2 minute noodles? Aren’t Gen Xers all in their mid-30s by now? That’s serious dedication to slackerdom, if it’s true.

    For a few years gen x had well paying jobs and lived the high life, eating bentos and udon noodles and such. Then we procreated and it’s back to the 2 minute noodles but nowhere near as fun.

    I always found lighting ciggies off an electric stove made the forehead uncomfortably warm.
