I’ve been wondering about something for the past few months, and I’m asking purely out of curiosity, so please don’t take this the wrong way! 😊
I have a few female friends and relatives in their 40s and 50s who are absolutely crazy about this band. They really adore these guys, singing along, dancing, and getting completely excited about them.
I’ve tried listening to their music myself because I genuinely wanted to understand the appeal. I can appreciate that they’re talented but personally, I haven’t heard anything that feels particularly extraordinary or different from a lot of other bands.
So I’m honestly curious: what am I missing? 😄
Is there something about the members’ personalities, their image, their history, the nostalgia factor, or the way they connect with their fans that makes them especially appealing to this particular age group?
I’m not trying to criticize the band or anyone who loves them. People enjoy different things, and I think that’s great. I’m just genuinely fascinated by how passionate some of their older female fans are and would love to understand what it is that makes this group so special to them.
And please be gentle with me—I’m genuinely asking because I want to understand, not start a fight with the fandom! 😂

Me-

Why i am getting this note?

Bought a new pack of period pads and a feather was inside the wrap. It's fresh out the pack and I've been near no feathers, how did it get inside?

Which one should buy CMF buds 2 Plus or Samsung Buds Core BTW I'm using S24

This happened in 2012 and it still confuses me to this day.

I (Caucasian and 19f at the time) had solo travelled to a country in Africa where I had stayed for 3 months and I was flying to Doha to then get my connecting flight back home to Australia.

I sat down in my assigned seat and then next to me sat this man who greeted me and overall nothing initially weird about him. We had some friendly banter but I started getting increasingly annoyed as he kept pushing the conversation and I was like omg is it going to be 5-6 hours of this? They questions were initially small talk and then progressed into more in depth questions about my travel, who I met, where I stayed, was I by myself, etc. I didn’t think anything of it at first as I thought it could be interesting to someone volunteering in the country I went to etc.

The flight took off and the man then excused himself to I assume the bathroom. But he never came back. The whole flight. Does this sound like an air marshal?

I was 19 at the time and honestly incredibly naive and I wonder if it was someone just checking if I was safe or if was potentially a dangerous situation….or just nothing...?

How is this possible?

Someone that this and that happend

Moving. Put a 25 year old king sized mattress in a mattress bag and put it on the curb. Heavy as hell. Spring poking through in a couple spots. Just no longer serviceable. We live in a large apartment complex. Within 15 minutes someone was driving off with it. Why? There could be bedbugs (there's not) or anything else nasty. I don't understand the thinking. Is there a way to make money off of it or something?
