This was a scary horror funhouse attraction in Seaside Heights NJ in the 70's before Star Wars ever came out I think it was called "Odyssey 2000." Scared the hell out of me watching all those simple but effective animatronics looking up and down at me.

Seeing these stores and all the items on display and not locked up behind glass or steel cages just bums me the fuck out. Yeah some stuff was back then too for sure, things that an unruly teen might want to snatch and grab, but not EVERYTHING.
Anyway, here's my contribution. Incredible Universe. An electronics store with few locations that was only open for a few years. I got to visit the one in Auburn WA when I was a boy, and I'll never forget it.

>>935464746 #
I mean you know those cabinets people fill with cool shit like uranium type glass or UV stuff like you're not even on drugs but it gives you an excuse to buy black lights instead of looking for cum stains and murder scenes in hotel rooms? They'd fill up a china cabinet with uh plushie things like those it was a big deal. I mean to this day I still don't have a mtg playable set. I kinda get the craze or whatever.

...do you know who that dude is, sitting there?

It's young Richard Garriot, the vice president of EA, now, and the creator of the Ultima RPG game series. In Houston TX. Software Etc used to be exclusively inside Waldon book stores, this was a newer one that was stand alone, so is guess probably in The Galleria off 610 and Westheimer.

He's holding a copy of Savage Lands, soooo probably 1988/1989?ish.

The '80s and '90s are ancient.

>>935481394 #
Yet the people who lived through them are only in their 40s and 50s. I guess that's "ancient" when you're 12.

>>935482290 #
As a zoomer born in the early 2000s, the late 1900s to me feels like the 1800s.

>>935482929 #
But it's not like that. The people born in the "late 1900s" are your parents and your friends' parents.

>>935483750 #
Yeah, but I wasn't born yet in those times so I never got to live them in person. Sure, there are my parents' times but I could only experience it through their stories.

It might as well be like reading about Ancient Greece since I wasn't alive back then either.
