              Don’t forget the leaded paint and asbestos.

                Don’t worry … the layers of lead paint protected them from the asbestos underneath

              I really had to think about this, cause our gas never had lead in…the petrol did though.

      Vsauce did a video on this. it’s cultural context. eg wearing clothes that old people wear makes you look older. a dude in like 1920 was wearing a tshirt and aviators and ppl thought he was a time traveler
