Missing to hear about your bootstraps??? Did you pull them up at all??? I need to know!!!

Of course, everyone did it back then...
Though quite a few got it all wrong and ended up with a form of bootstrap tightly around their neck and hanging from a joist in the garage.
Or they accidentally fell off high buildings due to pulling their bootstraps up while on a roof.
Or they accidentally lassoed a bottle of vodka in to their mouths with the bootstraps, drank themselves in to a stupor, and then accidentally went driving and crashed.
BUT THERE WAS NONE OF THAT THE PSYCHE SHIT. Right, I'm off to do some wholesome beating of my wife and kids.
