This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Quarter was rejected at the laundrymat. Someone slipped me a token for a lazer tag franchise that went bankrupt in 1997 (lemmy.world)

I used to go to Q-ZAR all the time as a kid! Loved that place, I think I once had a birthday party there.

I can’t believe they went out of business in ‘97. Fuck I’m getting old.

It didn't go out of business in '97, I was 1000% there for a birthday party in 2000 or 2001. It seems the company went bankrupt in 1997, and the assets were sold multiple times over the years. Locations stayed open, and, according to Google at least, there seems to be at least a couple left in Ohio, and California?

Either way, this took me down a nice nostalgia hole, very nice.
