I am SO not liking this new BLOGGER overhaul. I do not like it on my screen. My thoughts on it are very mean.
This old dog does not need any new tricks. Just let me have my BLOGGER back. I had not even changed to the NEW BLOGGER that was out a couple years ago. Apparently, Hillmomba is no longer a free blogtry. Instead of that little banner that proclaimed changes coming in April, they might have included the message: You WILL upgrade. OR ELSE! So snap to it. Before we do it for you.
If I had my druthers, we'd all be listening to 8-track tapes, and LPs on rinky dink fold-up plastic stereos, while drinking Fresca and Tab from pull-top cans. Propping up our feet shod in Earth shoes. Showing filmstrips to our classes, and occasionally a reel-to-reel tape checked out through the mail from the regional office of the American Heart Association. Running copies on fume-emitting, purple-finger-making mimeograph machines. Eating candy chock-full of Red Dye #2. Spraying the fields with DDT. Returning glass soda bottles after using a bottle-opener to pry off their metal caps. Popping corn in copper-bottom pans on the front burner. Laughing at the thought of people PAYING for water in a bottle.
Ahh...the good ol' days. When gay was happy and thongs were shoes.

Earth shoes. I loved them.
8-track tapes. Click click.
Paisley print clothes to go with those Earth Shoes, of course. Although, some people don't know of that word - paisley. As I'm sure they don't know half or any of the other things you mentioned.
I've started writing emails to my sister and cousin about memories I have from us growing up together. The replies are very interesting in what all each of us remembers!
I do not like the changes either! Just who thought this would be better???
Yup. I agree. I am not impressed with the changes. Give me back my old Blogger! What is with these computer programmers and constantly changing this stuff?? Facebook is worse. I love my Facebook, but find the constant changes annoying.
Sioux,
I can imagine the confusion of the poor children. Knowing that you wear Crocs on your feet, they could only assume that you wore thongs on your...

knancy,
And what about those blue chambray shirts that were everywhere?

Kathy,
It's too darn confusing. Everything's not in its place!

Chick,
I assume this new look is mimicking something else. I don't know what, because BLOGGER is the extent of my social media experience.
