5436	Article	onipar	I hear ya. Once I moved the PA, I didn't really have the "Corner Store" experience any more. Town was close to five miles away, which we did attempt on our bikes now and then, but it was a bit of a ride. And there was this tiny shop much closer, but it was on a "couples resort" that we were technically not allowed to patronize...though we did on occasion. Fun fact, those pictures on the Milk Inn were from moving day in 1993 (from Brooklyn to PA). That department store sounds amazing though! I kinda missed out on the more "old timey" sorts of stores like that.		Jun 09, 2021
5438	Article	vkimo	Where in PA do you live? I moved here from California and there's not really any corner stores. Back in Cali we had one right up the street called Frank's - It was always a treat making the 2 block journey to it and scoring some candy.	The Corner Store	Jun 09, 2021

5441	Article	onipar	@vkimo: NEPA, Pocono Mountain region. Yeah, where I moved to is much more sprawled out with nothing super "local" for kids. Not like running across the street in Brooklyn. :-p @Benjanime, Oof that stinks, sorry to hear it.	The Corner Store	Jun 10, 2021

5443	Article	echidna64	There were a couple "corner stores" in the town I grew up in Putnam County, New York. One in particular was a local pharmacy that also had a VHS rental area. Some carried collectible card games like Pokemon and Magic:The Gathering Cards .	The Corner Store	Jun 21, 2021

5447	Article	onipar	Well, heck, that's pretty sad. I used to always watch Doug on Nick, but I guess by time the second series came out, I was a little too old to care. I feel like a vaguely remember the movie coming out, but again, I didn't see it. I did recently revisit some of the original Doug episodes, and they seem to hold up pretty well for me.

5448	Article	Julie	First, my congrats on the always very well written article full of charisma. ❤ Doug achieved relative success, Rugrats was a cute colossus and I've only seen The Ren & Stimpy in a few 16-bit games back then. I also noticed the always great moral lessons in Doug's episodes and enjoyed the series. I didn't even know there was a sequel from Disney (which has only destroyed franchises lately thanks to the destructive woke culture). It's now a memory of a cartoon that was pleasant to watch, a good memory of the 90s.	Doug and his fall from grace	Jun 26, 2021
