I believe Laurel and Hardy were the first to use it. (then again L & H were first to do a lot comedy "standards")
I was thinking of Alan Hale swatting Bob Denver with his hat while mouthing those lines.

Having to explain this to youngsters.

Or explain what these were for.

Or explaining the why skis used to look like the ones on the left.
Again, seeing fads come back into fashion. Oh, and explaining that things were once made in the USA. If you'll notice the ones on the right....yeah made in China.

Or

I'm not a very cunning linguest but I can not figure why every thing today from the youngsters is "He, like, did this" "Like, I went to the store" "Like, I can't believe that she doesn't like me." Like, do you know what I mean? Please Like this post if you agree.
He man, where are all the ads?

About 10 years ago in a bar....
Young waitress, looked a lot like Bo Derek (used to), and sporting corn rows.

<SYT> What would you like to drink, sir?

<ME> Hmmm... not sure. Hey, you've got the Bo Derek look going on.

<SYT> Who?

<ME> Never mind. Seven and Seven, please.
