That would be L., who I met on the first day of third grade, lining up in the classroom to go to recess.She turned around, told me her name, and asked if I wanted to be her friend. No one had ever wanted to be my friend before! Sadly, we lost touch more than 50 years ago, connected again about 10 years ago, but never went anywhere with keeping in touch. I guess too much time had passed.
2) Two things for me: Influencers in general and judging popular media/entertainment from 30-60 years ago by today's standards and finding everything 'problematic' about it.
3) Besides my twin sister Maddie, I have friends from grade school who I've been close with for years now, and we keep in contact through FB (one of the few good things about that site).
I cannot think of a specific funny video; there are so many. I like those "Penny" videos of the talking cat. I like Randy Rainbow videos.
What popular thing annoys me? That's another difficult question. I hate the term "woke" and calling people "Karens."
My oldest friend is Connie. Her parents and mine were friends from church, and we were born 2 months apart. I probably met her when I was a baby. We were put together when my mom and Mrs. Henderson got together. We remained best friends through school, even during tough times (when boyfriends got in the way!). We always walked to school together. She was on my way to school, and I'd stop to pick her up. We don't see each other much now. She lives in Georgia but is rarely there. She and her husband travel for months at a time in their RV. But if we were to get together, we'd pick up where we left off.
1. Watched a Carol Burnett video last night of the Gone with the Wind segment... still hysterical. 2. Cell phones 3. My 2 friends from junior high and a friend from elementary school.

I feel badly for those folks named Karen who aren't jerks.

I agree, even after all these years, she still makes me laugh.
Well done, you, with the friends.
