Remember when VW had hundreds of slaves in Brazil until like a year after I was born? That was pretty wild.

For those of you who are not as intimately familiar with potoooooooo's birthdate as I am: they had slaves until 1986

If they can't remember my birthday, they don't deserve my fun facts.

In reality, I just meant to convey "modern times." Hip, youthful times. But I should've just said 1986.
