What Happened To McDonald's PlayPlaces?
If you're an 80s baby like me, you remember the Golden Age of fast food pretty well. Or, like, the tail end of it, anyway. It was a glorious age where kids learned to have a Pavlovian reflex over the oily scent of deep fried fries, knowing that they would be able to sink their teeth into a sad little patty on a limp burger bun.

It's Not Just You: Women Are Losing Interest In Men, Dating, And Marriage
Lately, I've been noticing a bunch of interesting trends in the online world. And in real life. As a geriatric Millennial, I grew up in a world where dating was just what you did.
