I'm placing that golden age above as around 1984 as opposed to my 1978. You got 20 sweets in a 10p mixture in my day, as long as they were Black Jacks or Mojos. Also we didn't get "grounded", we got "kept in" or more often "beaten" so I think this is after the corporal punishment became frowned upon, if not illegal.

"grounded" wasn't a word, remember having a telephone installed as an event, possibly late 70s/early 80s, vandalism included Wigan Casino grafitti on the side of Martin's the newsagent, 10p sweets made up of a mix of half pees, one pees and extragavant three pee packets of chews

lol this is what came to mind for me too, in my day vandalism was smashed up windows on derelict factories which are now swanky hotels and NF graffiti on walls.

Hey, my fellow white people. Let's not maybe take every buzzfeed test that comes down the pike, especially the ones that end in macros like this one?

I mean, ha? You're not white like Colin Powell? Do the results span the gamut from light-skinned Negroes to dark-skinned Negroes? I don't know what I'm missing, but I think that I'd prefer to just remain missing it. Cool, ok? All-right, *awkward high-five*.

"From a least squares fit of our model coefficients to data, we find that the number of murders of human scientists by monkey hands increases exponentially with the frequency of cold water soakings."

"Before the dawn of Modern Physics, scientists thought we had her figured out. Newtonian mechanics' supporters had not yet understood quantum field theory, or how one's soaking a monkey in cold water might then result in one's murder at the hands of that very same monkey. Mother Nature's beauty can still elude our understanding from time to time."
