i do know it was in the 90s that the latchkey kid was born because woman found out having an affair with the boss at the office was a better gig, especially once domestic relations became more aggressive than the IRS at collecting….those kids came home from school, smoked copious dope and listened to depressing music while reruns of Gilligan's island and Brady Bunch were on the TV in the background, with the sound turned down ; next thing you know, Dave killed Kurt and they called it a wrap ; Get X was born, starting with those born after the JFK thing in Dallas.
DC traffic is naturally clogged because they have no fucking clue, like in most civil engineering gigs run by government officials ; they just had all I-95 shut down in a few inches of snow last month ; people were stuck for over a day-and-a-half
