OMG, this brings back memories of listening to the Dr. Demento show under the covers of my bed with a transistor radio and a flashlight, in the 1970s. "AND A LARGE, ORANGE, DRINK!" https://youtu.be/y4EuZIcHxE0 #DriveThruHolidays #HashTagGames

@DrOinOR@mastodon.social LARGE, AARRNNNJJJJ DRINK!! I hooked up at Ohio State University with a woman whose birthplace was near mine. Although we'd subsequently grown up in different locations, we both retained a two-syllable pronunciation of "orange," and that AARRNNNJJJJ cracked us up more than the rest of the recording did (which was a lot).

@DrOinOR@mastodon.social [ sorry ]for some reason this reminds me of one of the great all time tweets: Robert McNees @mcnees Somehow I’ve lucked out and have an 8yo who thinks secretly reading under the covers past her bedtime is an act of rebellion, and it hasn’t yet occurred to her that her flashlights never seem to run out of batteries. 12:28 PM · Aug 13, 2020
