Just so you youngsters know, that legend of a person was David Bowie.

He gave me the McDonald's Gift Certificates?

[–] ThrowawayPermanente 11 points 1 year ago

He signed every last one of them.

Let us all thank David Bowie for the Mcdonald's gift certificates!

Isn't David Bowie the guy who ripped off "The Man Who Sold the World" from Nirvana?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I thought he was the guy who ripped off vanilla ice tho.

And here I thought it was Ziggy Stardust.

Youngsters cannot appreciate the prestige.

Shit, I wish David Bowie was my mom.

I kid, my mom is great, but I'd let him be my second mom.

What’s your accent, by the way?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It varies based on what I eat. Right now it's American I guess?

Uh I was a 90s kid and I remember those. I'm guessing they don't still do them.. There was something really satisfying flipping through those elongated certificates with that bright red cover.

I cannot tell you how excited we were to get those gift certificates.
