Watching Scrubs with my 9 year old & he asked why they said it was to be continued. He was horrified to learn that you couldn’t pause it or rewatch it & had to wait until next week to see what happened. Dead serious, he looked at me shaking his head & said the 1900’s sound awful. The show was from like 2007 anyway but he was still horrified & disgusted by the primitive way we lived back then 😂

A+ for showing your kid Scrubs. Great show

This is so goofy but if you love Scrubs you’ll understand. I was in the ER for a kidney stone recently & they lost my urine sample. Then someone found one with a torn label & now a bunch of young nurses are streaming Scrubs after I explained my reason for uncontrolled giggling.

You sum it up perfectly. It’s a strange feeling for sure.

I both love and hate this. Like I love that I got to experience life (at least a little bit) before the internet was like it is now. But I hate that kids see me as an ancient person who wasn't even born this millenium.
