It's what we used to photograph each other as teens back then. You could buy it anywhere and there was place you could drop off your rolls and pick them up developed an hour later. You didn't even have to leave your car. Girls back then were always doing one half of the heart and getting their friend to do the other.
Mom jeans were big back then too, as were dirt bikes. Lots of guys were wearing fox gear as Jeremy McGrath was a big motocross star. I could see this entire scene play out the same way back then. You kids are exactly like your parents.
I was in China once, trying to take a 3hr bus to Zhouzhuang. Instead I bought a ticket for an 8hr bus to Jiaozhuan. Lesson was always write down where you are going.
