damn, I feel old. But i remember my mom would get hella mad when I would come home with those candy cigarettes. the best ones were the gum ones cause they had powder on them so when you puffed out a puff of powder would come out like smoke

I still get those!!! But I don't let my kids see me...

What kinda party lines are ya'll talkin about? I remember the ones that were around before people in the country had their own phone lines. If I was at my grandma's house & wanted to use the phone, I had to pick up the receiver & see if anyone else (in the area, not the house) was on the phone. That shit was crazy!!!

its like a local line in ur city you can call and listen to messages from other people in ur city, and you can either leave messages or make one of ur own. kind of like a message dating service or chat line over the phone. it used to be cooh back in the day
