My parents really liked the name Roxanne, but our name is Fox, and they correctly foresaw Roxy Foxy and did not name me Roxanne. Thank god, because almost exactly 11 months later the Police released their single and I would literally never have heard anything else once I hit elementary school.

Paper maps and atlases; plans written out ahead of time; a lot more attention to the odometer. GPS was big but the previous innovation, the mobile phone, was bigger; not having to leave the car if you got lost or broke down is huge.

I also like this explanation, i.e. they simply forget women’s sports exist when they don’t need them as a cudgel against trans people, because actually “it never occurred to a single one of us that a man would go to a women’s basketball game” is an even more stunning self-own

100% true about all topics, as OP notes. People ranting about their period deserve not to hear that (peri)menopause is worse; people under 4' of snow don't need to hear about 110° heat & vice versa. Someone says "JFC I hate pancakes," you don't come in and say "but at least they're not waffles!" 🫠

Before my wedding (2014), nice older choir lady said, "What will your last name be?"

When my parents were in college (1965–1969), the women's dorms had a curfew but the men's did not. ("If a girl has to be in by 10:00, her boyfriend will be in by 10:05, so it's practically the same as having a men's curfew anyway.")
