Story from my friend with the cat: Summer camp.

My one friend with the cat went to this rural summer music camp like over an hour away from my hometown when she was in middle school back in the mid-80s...

She said the camp was segregated by sexes outside of rehearsals, but they had this dating system left over from the 1950s where you could ask a guy you liked down to an ice cream/soda fountain place to get a pop or an ice cream float on a "coke date".

"Coke dates?", here older sister and brother-in-law who were at that time lawyers in L.A. were like, "We go on those all the time!"

She said she only realized what they meant when she was in her 20s and for some reason thought back to the comment.
