And what exactly is that line pointing to..?

[–] RustyShackleford@literature.cafe 27 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Why are they pointing to the kids junk and saying, “special purpose”?

[–] BruceTwarzen@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago

Is this a "the jerk" reference?

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I think it's supposed to be for the pad around the bar. But they definitely didn't catch that in editing.

This looks more 90s to me than 80s.

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 month ago

The shorts and fanny pack point to right around 1992.

I'm living in Denmark, so if bikes are cool, I'm living in one of the coolest places on earth

I didn't say "the coolest" just one of them.

10 speed... Was this actually 80s?

[–] Jojowski@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

2 x 5 I'd guess, hard to see but that shifter box seems to have to knobs and the right one has 5 marks

[–] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 6 points 1 month ago

Silly me. I was thinking single at the front. Thank you!

[–] Cobrachicken@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I remember wanting to have one of these shifter boxes then, so most probably yes.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

I wish I had that awesome fanny pack!

You ever take it off any sweet jumps?

[–] Doolbs@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I definitely was not AWESOME!. When i had the money I bought a ten-speed from K-Mart.
