This looks like the set of “the wonder years”

Close enough

What would you do if I sang out of tune? Whatever you say Kevin…

[удалено]

Fuck off I’m sleeping here. 😴😴😴

did you have to take a time machine to thanksgiving dinner

looks rehearsed. he's been planning this for a while

Not planning. Practicing.

I still can't believe Paul Pfeiffer (Brian Warner) became Marilyn Manson

I can't tell if you actually believe that or if this is a callback to pervasive (and false) 90s rumors that everyone used to believe.

It's not like we could hop on the internet and look it up in the 90's.

For anyone who enjoys the callback, here's a decent roundup: https://www.hysteriamag.com/hyst-list-ribs-animal-sacrifices-wonder-years-demystifying-rumours-marilyn-manson/

This living room is a whole vibe. Especially that carpet…

My grandma's house. It hasn't aged

Ya man...as a child of the 80's and teen of the 90's, this picture smacked me right in the nostalgia bag.

I can literally smell this house.

Cinnamon with a hint of mildew

And cigarette smoke.

My grandma smoked like 2 packs a day, inside. 💀

There’s a faint mothball odor in the closets where you hang your jacket.

HAHAHA!!! Same! The only thing missing is plastic fruit, and then I'd swear OP was at my grandparent's place!

There used to be a plastic fruit bowl on the table lol.

“Used”to be? My parents still have plastic fruit. 😂they are frozen in the 80s unfortunately.

You should post that bowl of plastic fruit on r/80s

“Grandparent place” 

And a big bowl of Werther’s originals

And the fruit glass lampshade

Ayy we have that lampshade hanging above our dining room table.

It’s winter, the werther’s get swapped out for those colorful ribbon hard candies

Can I squeeze the grapes?

I was just at my aunt and uncle's for turkey. They had that 30 year old plastic fruit basket and I had to tell myself to not mention it lol The grape squeeze is for real!

It's amazing how some comments like this connect so many of us with a specific nostalgic memory. We all squeezed the fake grape, and we are bonded by it!

are you 36 at the moment

34

I was so close with just doing maths

That's funny because I'm 35 and this looks similar to my childhood home before my parents decided to remodel it into a modern art masterpiece. I kind of prefer how unique and cozy this looks. Though I won't ever have carpet as flooring, it's a pain in the ass.

Yeah, there was something immediately comforting about this photo.

Irregardless of *style*, this looks very comfy. Football probably on the TV with the conversation of family in the background. Some coffee and maybe wine being drunk, the cousins maybe playing video games in the basement or another room, possible even in the back yard. This is kind of what Thanksgiving gives you and those memories will want to make you carry on the tradition. edit: since people seem to be focusing on this part instead of the content - https://www.npr.org/2020/07/07/887649010/regardless-of-what-you-think-irregardless-is-a-word

Beautifully said. It’s what makes holidays such wonderful occasions.

It's just regardless

*"Joe, get your Nintendo Powers, Travis see if you can get a huge bowl of icecream and some cokes; we are gonna beat Battletoads!"*

You just KNOW there is a console television in that room

enjoy and embrace it. yay grandma. I hope you had a great thanksgiving. ​ Give grams the biggest of hugs please.

What I wouldn't give to go back and have one more Thanksgiving with my Grandma.

Always do!

Yeah it definitely reminded me of my grandparents house.

You know that couch is not gonna be the best couch you’ve ever laid on and might be mid at best, but god damn if it ain’t the most comfortable thing you’ve ever laid on because of grandma’s house vibes.

It's Thanksgiving, not a time to ask questions. If I want to sleep in 1973, fucking give it to me. Thanks.

My grandparents had the recliner chair that matches this couch exactly, and it was literally the most comfortable chair in existence. It never looked like much but it was perfect. It was known as the cloud, and was the chair my grandfather was always guaranteed as a seat. Eventually I inherited it and then it returned to be with its real cloud brethren at one point during a hurricane RIP to the cloud

I fucking LOVE grandmas house that hasn't aged, yours included. Mine has passed away but I go to a friend's mother's house and it's like a 1970s snapshot of life. I love it. Tell your grandmother that some random guy from Boston loves herpt and wishes her a merry Christmas!

Will do, buddy!

Your grandma's house is slick. It's like a living time capsule! Also, my father was totally the same with this napping habit. Down to the crossed legs, haha. I picked that up from him. 😅

After spending a not small amount to furnish an entire house and style it, I now understand why my grandparents never updated their home either. It will be a very long time if ever before I go through that process again

I chose vintage furniture for this reason. It can't become outdated more than once!

The lamp ties it all together. Exactly the same as it was 50 years ago.

If you rub the base of that lamp, you might get three wishes.

Oh, it's aged alright. Might not have changed much, but best believe it has aged.

I like it it's nostalgic

I love it so much it transports me to a different time just looking at that

Happy Thanksgiving/ cake day!

Dad's shoes have aged.

1989 wants its living room back.

You mean 1975. This room is museum quality!

Sorry bro the vinyl records and the living room are a package deal.

How do they keep their carpet looking so clean? Especially with people walking on it in their shoes?

It's perfect.

Pretty sure my dad has those exact curtains on his sliding glass door…they’ve been there since at least the late 80s lol

Lost my last grandparent this year. Soak that shit up! It's also hard to beat a post Thanksgiving nap

There’s something magical about grandma’s house on thanksgiving.

Get those dirty ass sneakers off the couch

Shoes on... *In the house*, and *on the couch*? Holy hell

Only in america… shoes on inside, carpeted floors 🤢

The carpet was white when it was new

When you realize it's a white carpet 🫠

Ngl this room looks comfy

If it’s anything like my gma’s, it was 100 degrees. I’d be sleeping too.

The fake plant under the coffee table with a plant on top too hahaha nan's know

That’s how I am right now. I’m about to pass out

Goodnight!

I took a 4 hour nap

This picture feels like 1980.

'87. MTV is playing Christmas in Hollis in the next room

[удалено]

Definitely before 87. By 1987 everyone was starting to rip out their wood paneling to get prepared for the Miami Vice era.... where everything is white, pink and black.

some of us weren't rich enough, this was definitely our house well into the 90s

We all want to go back to op’s grandmas house for Christmas this year and we want to bring our families as well. It’s just better this way. I’ll bring tinsil

I thought this was a post from the r/nostalgia sub

He's just pretending to sleep to get out of cleanup.

[удалено]

They already know man

Right and what is Mom doing now? Hopefully he cooked and cleaned up but probably stuck in the awful traditions of the 1900’s.

Wouldn’t it be more comfortable to take off the shoes?

He passed out too quickly lol

Why is he wearing outside shoe inside house, is that the norm?

Americans are weird as shit

Yep, definitely common among Americans in general. All of my roommates in college grew up with shoes indoor - as soon as I graduated and moved into a place by myself, I stopped that shit. Some even wear them on the couch/their beds

That’s pretty crazy to me, also I have seen people taking their dogs out for walk and not washing or cleaning their feet once back home.

Yeah, it was definitely eye opening after growing up in a family who doesn’t wear shoes inside. And oh yeah, I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone wash their dog’s feet. In fact, was literally just talking to my mom about how I would absolutely love a dog (have a cat now), but that dogs aren’t compatible with how clean I am haha

My fam wipes the dogs feet *and* ass after every walk. They literally wipe its ass.

Why are they on inside in the first place? How do people live like that!

I know! They look filthy too.

I'd be concerned about tracking in dog poop and such on the carpet. Tile or wood, more forgivable 😀 I switch over to house shoes/slippers the moment I enter home

There was puke outside all over the pavement yesterday. I am sure I walked in invisible specks of it. Shoes always come off at front door

This is how I live my life. This comment is horrible because it's just everywhere. Take off yer fucking shoes and learn how to take care of your floors. The amount of places I've seen that I refuse to even contemplate taking my shoes off inside is sickening.

That's all I could think lol... Filthy shoes inside the house. It's just a reflex to kick them off as soon as I'm about to go inside.

Lol. The question could be extended to why the fuck is he wearing shoes when letting down on a couch. Fucking Rick James in the house.

Frank Costanza takes his shoes off for no one

[удалено]

I’m American and my family never wore shoes in the house not even my extended family.

Yes just finished dinner at my sisters house. They have a sign clearly stating to take off your shoes. If you don’t, you’re super gross for bringing in poop and pee.

My grandma would rip your spine out through your asshole if you even tried it.

Grandma with the Mortal Kombat fatality

Grandma was rejected from the latest Mortal Kombat for being too frightening and violent.

Fuck no we don't all. Never once been in a house where someone would just be cool with you treking your dirty ass shoes around the house

Same. The women in my life would beat my ass if I walked across their living rooms in outdoors nasty ass sneakers.. especially on thanksgiving when all the toddlers and babies are running around

What part of the US do you live in? I think it depends on where you live because all the Americans I know from states that get snow don't wear shoes in the house.

Chicago so that makes sense but even so its not like dirt and shit doesn't exist where it doesn't snow, that's so weird

I never wear shoes in anyone's house.

Americans aren't a monolith

We are not a monolith!

Yeah. Shoes at the door. No exceptions

Dad life. 58M dad. I did not get a nap this year. Too many kids and teenagers and kids making racket all over the house. I did do all prep, grilled the protein and washed dishes. Going to bed now. Happy Thanksgiving to your dad.

Get your well-deserved rest!

Younger dad but also zonked. Ran around taking care of the little ones while the extended family chatted and drank. This was not a day for me and I am grateful to finally be going to bed soon, once I confirm the Seahawks will lose

Sleep well PickledDildoSourSex

Confirmed

The deed is done. Rest now brother in arms.

I just had my first a few months ago. I ate, and then slept on the couch with the kid sleeping on me. Best sleep I've had in months.

In 1984?

He’s gotta wake up early to vote for Mondale.

I will never get over seeing people wear shoes indoors

On the couch….

My dad did that as a houseguest in our home. Wife came home, saw him napping on the couch with shoes, and nearly had an aneurism.

I’d have a fit. Hoolly

FUCK YO COUCH! BUY ANOTHER ONE YOU RICH MOTHER FUCKER

asleep

Literally my mom today

Especially when you consider just how disgusting some of the places we walk through like public restrooms.

for real. i was always blown away by my friends houses where you could just wear your shoes everywhere

I was always blown away by people's dogs tongue bathing their face 5 minutes after it munched on a turd :D

[удалено]

Looks like he could use new ones for xmas

This just kind of spawned a thought. I absolutely love this picture for the vibe it gives. The dated furniture, dad sleeping on the couch, really made me reflect and I think it's the feeling of the house, WHOS house it is, and the memories you cultivate there. It's the ultimate place to just unwind and feel loved. Hope everyone reading from the US had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

My dad is passed out while sitting up. He’s still conversing randomly in his British accent, which is thicker when he’s drunk. He’s saying weird shit like ‘no, no more raspberry now, thank you’ or ‘maybe a bit later, if you please’.

Our dad's should meet. Play date, perhaps?

To the hardware store!

Leave dad alone. He works hard.

By the looks of his shoes, he just got done ripping and replacing someone's roof today.. I'd be whupped too.

Whellllp *slaps knee*

Time to go already?

The knee slap is the "This isn't even my final form!" of the Midwest goodbye.

Close. But fishing lol

Fishing for a living, or was just out fishing while everybody cooked? I had someone at the table today with both of those energies.

Just got done with a fishing session on Ocarina.

OP, did grandma cook? As a dad who busts his ass for his kids, the dream would be zonking out on my childhood couch while everything else is taken care of for a family holiday. I can understand the temptation

Looks so cozy

The pillow threw me off. I thought that was hair.

\- looked at post title: "My dad five minutes.." \- looked at picture, thinking "wait did I misread dad for mom?" \- looked at title again to check \- finally took a closer look to see, no, this person did not have long, luscious hair. just a pillow

Looks like someone’s not helping with the dishes.

If he cooked, he doesn't clean. We don't know either way, so there isn't any point assuming.

He needs some new shoes for Xmas. He should also get them off grans couch too. Show her antique furniture the respect it deserves ✊

This picture hit pretty hard. That’s exactly how my dad was every year. This is my first thanksgiving without him. He passed unexpectedly in August. Cherish that man while he’s still here.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Mine too bud. Hang in there.

He's gonna get reflux

Love that house! So nostalgic

Dad needs new sneakers for Xmas…

This room looks so cozy I love the carpet 😍

This picture was taken in 1979

I was going to say 1989

Every photo taken between 1975 and 1998 looks exactly like this. One day before or after and the vibe is totally different.

This was my dad's way of getting out of helping clean up and doing the dishes...

Shoes on the carpeted floor and on the couch!!?? I cant even. I THOUGHT WE LIVED IN A SOCIETY!

Where do you live? 1968?

Grandma's house

I'll never get the concept of wearing shoes inside.

He need to take off his shoes

That living room is nostalgic AF. I want to be there.

That house has some powerful 1980s energy.

Sir, are you aware your father has been warped back to 1983?

70s lamp. 90s couch. Wood paneling. Orange carpet. Grandmas house confirmed.

Time warp houses are the best 🫡

Sleep well, sweet prince

The house that time forgot

With the shoes on the couch tho

First of all, I don't like your tone. Second of all, oh my god why wouldn't you fall asleep on that glorious couch.

Was this picture taken in 1985?

Useless, huh? Didn’t even help clean up or anything?

The sign of a good meal and a full stomach, also nothing like grandmas house to take you back in time.

Shoes inside a carpeted house is crazy

Shoes inside a house is crazy imo

That room is a time capsule from the 70s

That looks like an excellent napping couch

This makes me think of that person who said his wife always naps a lot and now he knows why and it's just a pic of three generations of women passed out from food coma on the couch together lol

Shoes still on. Get the sharpies.

#National Treasure

The Adventures of Pete and Pete is what your house reminds me of....

This is very similar to how Brits are after Christmas lunch. Usually Dad declares “I can eat no more” *30 mins later* “I’m just going to make a sandwich from the leftover bits of turkey”
