When kids could buy cigars and cigarettes without any questions.

When we just had two TV channels, TV1 and TV2. That was actually until 1990 or so.

Oh wow. We could receive three German channels beside the Ned 1 and Ned 2.

And yes, I got the cigarettes for my Dad. And was behind a bar tapping beer at age 10  :asthing:

When drugs were legal to use but not to possess. This meant that you couldn't get busted if the drug was already in your body, because according to the narrow judicial definition, possession didn't include things already absorbed by your body. Unfortunately I wasn't interested in them then.

I remember petrol being 68cents per litre when I first got my licence in 1996.

I recall when quarrels were settled with fisticuffs or a duel.

I remember that time I once typed this right now.
"I’m fearless in my heart.
They will always see that in my eyes.
I am the passion; I am the warfare.
I will never stop...
always constant, accurate, and intense."

You didn't need any seatbelts. Seat belt in the frontseat became compulsory in 1975 here, while you didn't need any in the backseat until 1986. Though if the car is older than a 1969 model you still don't need any seat belt in it.

If you wanted to watch something on TV you had to watch it when it aired or wait for a rerun

When you had no remote control for the TV and you didn't have a colour TV. We didn't have a colour TV until the late 70's and no remote control until the mid 90's.

I remember those days...and if you missed the rerun, too bad, that was it.  :emosad:
