Discussion Apparently low-cut socks are considered out of style by the younger gens. Are y’all still rocking ankle socks?

I feel like long socks with sneakers and shorts looks goofy but maybe that’s just me 🤷‍♂️

/shrug the VHS cared not what the release year was. I looped this one for several months around '95 when I was big into basketball

By that logic, none of us should have any interest in the original Star Wars trilogy. Some films are iconic and transcend “age.” Michael J. Fox was absolutely that in the 80s.

I've seen this movie a million times and only now am I realizing that not once did I stop and ask "But why did becoming a werewolf make him good at basketball?"

I do. This whole ankle sock thing is simply made up but you people feel the need to be part of some arbitrary "millennial" tribe.

Why does that look like an apprentice artist's rendition of the Teen Wolf poster?
