Relevant, I recently went to this one candy store with a back room. It had chocolate molds of pussies, penises, and titties. The rest of the store was so unassuming and family friendly.

Bro going to Blockbuster on a Friday and renting a new game for the weekend was so big for me in middle school and high school.  I was a big social butterfly, obviously.

Omg that’s right. I forgot all about renting games from them. Those were good times

Was there a lock or obstacle to get into the back room? The horror if a kid broke free and ran back there 😬

They were never hidden or blocked off where i lived....just a sign that said adults only

No lock. Just a sign that said adults only and then a long hallway. I'm pretty sure a child has been back there more than once, lol. Shit happens.

I miss when TNT used to show movies constantly

It's literally how Shawshank Redemption went from a box office dud to being recognized as the amazing movie it is

The conversation parents must’ve had with their children over that probably really sucked for everyone 😬😆
