minus-squarePalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up96·2 个月前The only reason people think it’s fancy is because of some dumb commercials made in the 80s.

minus-squareJcbAzPx@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 个月前They continued into the '90s, but they started in the '80s. The whole two rich people riching at each other is a very '80s esthetic.
