First the suggestions. And then no. Dont drive under the cocktail influence.

Sounds like a solid person. I hope he found someone (nice)!

18 and has all that. Quite the catch.

"Want woman who owns a plow. Send picture of plow."

Andy Johnson = Andrew Johnson, 17th President of the US 1865-1869

Today's 18 y/o's are still children by comparison.

*starts reading* Okay, okay, this all sounds good, but are his oats and potatoes bully? Are ... his oats ... and potatoes ... YESSS!!

He believed in Andy Johnson? Dude, leave the politics out till you've charmed her. That didn't hold up

awe, that actually sounds pretty good. though a woman living on a farm like that probably wouldnt have need for a hoop skirt unless she went into town, would she? seems like she'd be putting in work on the homestead and a hoopskirt would just get in the way. course im thinking of like reinfaire hoopskirt so maybe there was a different farm friendly kind?

I'd marry him

I hope he found someone to be happy with, sounds nice.

Anyone know where in aroostook this was? We live up there but don’t know much about this.

I work exclusively with juniors and seniors in high school. I will be the first to complain about their immaturity and inability to take responsibility for their actions. But, I also specialize in working with students who are at high risk of not graduating high school. The "mature" kids are in another classroom. Every year we have students in our building who are, hard-working, creative, honest, and responsible. Some of them are already making $10-$20,000 a year with their own small business. Others are working industry related jobs starting out at $30,000 a year. Before they've earned their high school diploma.

He wanted to buy her her hoopskirts and waterfalls...sounds a romantic chap at heart. I'd go sparkin' with him any day.

🎶🎶🎶 gonna put it in the want ads.

Sounds like a sweet guy

Awww... that's kinda sweet

I want to share my life w/ someone. "That's what's the matter with me." ❤️

By mentioning the hoop skirts, he signals to the lady that he wants her not only to work on the farm but also to have an open social life. This guy checks all the boxes. I bet he found a good partner and lived a happy life.

I'd take him up...

What a proposal.

Singles ad!

He did all that by 18...18

Wow...18 yrs. 😳

What did "believing in Andy Johnson" have to do with anything?

And 18 year olds today just want to play on the TikTok, eat tide pods, and complain about the crippling unaffordability of life. Shame.

He definitely got friend-zoned.

If we post it on TikTok and call it the Vaccination Challenge, this wouldn't be a problem.

Wait, I can fix it. If it were a married woman, it would get its bottom pinched by her respectful and adoring husband of over 20 years. There, I defanged it.

Omg.... ray-ban refers to banning sunrays?! I was today years old to realize, lol

Looking at the price is honestly so weird, like I know it wasn't technically that long ago, but the value of money changing so much is baffling :]

I saw the "sneak preview" of Jaws - can you imagine?!!! For those unfamiliar, a "sneak preview" was when they released a movie at a handful of theaters with ZERO plot information or 2 minute preview ads. All you had to go on was the poster. Obviously Jaws was about a big scary shark, but nothing could have prepared 17 year old me for that movie...so great and one of my favorite memories.

I remember turning it on after midnight, to check if it still worked. It did (OS was Windows 98).

I find the 'turn key' part interesting. It sounds like they made the light switch mimic a gas valve to help people adjust to it.

I miss these.

btw back then the word meant happy, not homosexual. And yes the rainbow and bright colors were associated with that. Later when the gay rights movement took the term gay for themselves to counter the slur terms, they also adopted the bright colors and rainbow associated with the word as well
