since we've talked before about living in that area, I'd say a good rule of thumb is to just not open posts from Chillicothe

To be fair, they are midcentury.

Perhaps he meant Mid Century Monstrosity?

Yes, they are from the middle of the 20th century... so they are partially correct LOL.

Oh god. My parents totally had end tables like those first ones. Only, somehow, cleaner and more streamlined than that lol. I used to lay on the long part and put my feet under the short one and use a CB radio as a telephone. (I also had part of an engine as dresser decor too lol.)

I can totally picture that. And a CB radio? Wow. They should both be in the Smithsonian.

My uncle had the other table in his living room which had a Mediterranean theme that included hanging maces and swords on the walls. Nice decorating choice when you have 3 kids under 4.

My dad is a truck driver and owned 8 trucks when I was in elementary and middle school. So we had lots of spare CBs lol. And the engine went in his 1969 Camaro SS that hasn't run in probably 20 years.

i can't imagine the child training that goes into having dangling weaponry in your home!
