POV: you're 37 and spend 3 hours looking at memes, but don't print any.

Indo that when I visit record stores! Especially with CD stores.

This is where we went to look at Memes before there were memes.

Spacing all of the posters out perfectly just to then push them all to one side and hearing the frames hit each other.

It was our form of a museum, growing up

What was the name of that posters store? (mostly 1990s). Man, I bought like 5 posters there.

Spencer's? It had a spot for posters, but it wasn't really a poster store.

Why do this when I can go to the book store and casually hide a bikini magazine inside another more-legitimate book/magazine?

There’s still a Spencer’s at the mall near me (Dulles, VA)

Other places that had this were Media Play and FYE.

Anticorp ,

Well, I wanted to buy some, but I never had enough money.

One day I'll save enough to afford those obnoxious pants with all the chains and stuff

Anyone else remember FYE?

It's still around. There's one in a mall near me.

@PP_BOY_@lemmy.world avatar

Same, actually, but do you remember it? What a place back in the day

son_named_bort ,

Oh yeah, it definitely isn't as good as it used to be.

I remember The Wall.

We had a Camelot where I grew up, but I was top young to really appreciate it at the time

Fiivemacs ,

We had to walk past all the bongs, 'tobacco' pipes, doc Martens, and band t-shirts to get to the posters.

Sounds like Spencers. I looked back at my elementary and middle school pictures and I was always wearing some shirt from there.

Gotta find all the bikini posters

dmention7 ,

The art of making sure to linger just long enough to seem like you were casually enjoying them on the same level as the Green Day poster, without lingering so long as to raise suspicion...
