How about walking home with a VHS tape and nothing to hide it with. The "movie": Debbie does Dallas.

Timing your family leaving the house so you could watch a "movie" in the loungeroom.

Kids today with their own portable devices in their bedrooms have no idea how risky it was for us.

I believe this explains why a lot of us have developed tinitis. Experts point to headphones and loud music as the cause but I theorise that out of shear survival instinct we had to develop super sensitive hearing and the ability to separate the smooth sounds of a saxophone and moaning with the distant sound of a car door or car tires pulling into a gravel driveway
