I think if I had a daughter I'd like them to look or be like them.

To the Puerto Rican young dude at my gym

Then we were talking about salsa and he was like "oh house cleaning music?"

I was like uh what?

He was like "when I hear that shit in Saturday morning I know my mother is gonna wake my ass up to help clean the house" lol

Salsa was considered the music of the past and was no longer a youth music. I was shocked.

There's a small niche of salsa fans that love the Fania era, and Willie Colon seems to have bridged generations of fans single-handedly.

Salsa didn't cross over to the younger generation, mostly cause latin music took a more urban turn to first Freestyle to then what we see in Reggaeton, bachata, merengue, all of which took cues from American rap and R&B.

The thing is salsa dura of the 70s that reflected urban life in NYC changing to salsa romantica in the 80s had something to do with the music eventually being seen as tired and lame.

we keep it moving,

a few weeks back.
my brother is 26 and knows camp lo but that was mostly my doing
so i had to chill on the judgements.
i stopped seeing him for other reasons relating to his youth tho.

already a banned practice by then. was this a domestic or international flight?

I definitely remember people smoking on commercial flights but I wasn't nearly old enough to smoke myself.

Did you negotiate that with Orville & Wilbur?

Shocked the hell out of me

Me too! In 1997.

fuck you.

I've never been a smoker but I thought smoking was banned on flights much earlier than 97.

My bad, JF. I might actually be older than you.

I just thought that smoking was prohibited much earlier than that. I was way off base.

smoking was banned on commercial flights in the USA by 1997 but not in France. international flight rules are set by the arrival nation not the departure one. that's why i could smoke on my way to Paris but couldn't smoke on my way back to the USA.

fuck you.

At first that was the back 1/4 to 1/3 of the plane. Then they flipped it so that the smoking section was the back.

fuck you.

were divided by.... three inches of nothing.

Those were the days. The days in which the NON smoking section was smaller and you had to ask for it in particular, and there was no partition between smoking & nonsmoking, whether that was in restaurants or on planes or what have you, sigh.

we weren't allowed to smoke during take-off, landing, or during turbulence.

fuck you.

wtf like it was any more dangerous to smoke during takeoff? WHY? IF THE PLANE CRASHES AND BURNS IN A BALL OF FIRE, MY CIGARETTE WILL BE A PROBLEM?

Takeoff, landing, and turbulence are EXACTLY when I NEEDED a cigarette.

There'd be like five people every flight talking about "It's not my fault! the plane was shaking!" as they look for that burning cig they dropped somewhere.

We were hanging out in the aisle, passing around duty-free vodka (my first international flight was on Pakistan International Airlines, which at the time didn't serve booze), hollering at chicks. That shit was great.

said on their freshman housing information that they were smokers. Because they assumed (probably rightly so) that potheads would never say they were nonsmokers. LOL

I told her "shit, I got some classics"

we laughed... but on the inside I was a little salty.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

And we used answering machines with the little cassette tapes (no digital) to get phone messages.

and didn't go out clubbing after bc my hips were sore.

fuck you.
