I actually miss malls… especially the arcade and the food court. And I miss the 80s. Well not so much the 80s but actually my youth, I mostly miss that. Fuck I’m old.
But honestly I had a lot of fun hanging with my friends in the mall. My kids never really got that.
Arcades were fun. Asteroids and space invaders until my hands felt like concrete blocks. I was glad when pool tables were added. Youth really is wasted on the young. Mine was, anyway.

Parents dropped you off with $10 and/or allowance money and disappeared for a couple hours. Good times
Nah, I didn’t get money from parents. I had a job though and it was good times.

Roughly ages 13-16. Some point in the latter I got a job and a shitty Toyota Tercel
Same… job and a shitty Toyota Celica here…
@billwashere
The Celica had a bigger back seat, if you know what I mean
In high school, no I didn’t. 🤣
Exactly!!!

If you think about it, it was pretty safe. Plenty of adults and rent-a-cops around if anybody tried something shifty.
Also, food court and a movie dates :D
