Dude lived a long ass time. When world War 2 ended, he was a grown man in his 20s.

His father would've grown up in an american city that didn't have electricity.

Dude went from seeing silent or poor quality movies on a tiny screen to watching 4k movies on a 85 inch flat screen TV with mind blowing surround sound.

People he went to school with died of polio and people don't even know what that shyt is. Smallpox was still a thing people died of when he was a kid and he lived long enough to see HIV arrive, become a death sentence, and then something treatable.
this. we as humans should be blessed to live so long

Yeah man this is really the end of an era. As I was saying earlier, Bob Barker was a huge part of my childhood due to the fact that my granddad loved The Price is Right. I would watch it cause it made me feel closer to him.

My granddad passed 6 years ago and we're watching as everyone from that era leaves us. My granddad fought in WW2. We're losing so much history right now. Things and people who were staples of our childhood are leaving us. I hate to see it but im happy they got to live long lives and I hope our generation gets to do the same.

PETA better have gave Bob Barker a check for always saying that on TV...

"Remember to always spay and neuter your pets".

I USED to joke and say that at my Dads house.


R.I.P to you Bob Barker. You were a better host than Drew Carey.

:mjcry::mjcry:




I was at the doctor last year and they had Nu Price is Right playing on the TV.

:scust: it's soulless, kind of like Nu Star Trek.

@Elim Garak speak on it.
