johnnyblackroc Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 I saw this on "another" board. (thanks claire):So are you if you remember this crap...You solved the Rubics cube.....by peeling off the stickers You can sing the rap to "the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" You wore biker shorts under your skirts and felt stylish You ever watched Fraggle Rock You had plastic streamers on the handle bars of your bike with the banana seat. You wore a pony tail to the side of your head You saw the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on the big screen You made your mom buy you one of those clips that would hold your shirt in a knot on the side You played the game "MASH" with friends at schoolYou wanted to be a Goonie You ever wore fluorescent, neon if you will, clothing You wanted to be on StarSearch You can remember what Michael Jackson looked like before his nose fell off. You took Lunch pails to school You remember Punky Brewster You thought Sheera and He-man should hook up You ever owned a pair of Jelly Shoes After you saw Pee-Wee's Big Adventure you couldn't stop saying "I know you are but what am I?" You remember "I've fallen...and I can't get up!" You remember "Where's the beef?" You remember going to the skating rink before there were inline skates You had or went to a birthday party at Chuck E. Cheeses with the singing rat and that purple thing "when I say Happy you say Birthday...Happy..Birthday...Happy..BirthdayYou loved Dukes of Hazard and CHiPs You remember dancing along with the Bangles in "Walk Like An Egyptian". You saw the California Raisins Christmas claymation special DON'T WORRY, BE HAPPY!!!!!!!! !!!!! You wore socks over tights with high-top Reeboks You wore like 8 pairs of socks at once, scrunched down Chuck Taylor's All Star Converse Sneakers (aka Chucks) You sat down with your boom boxes instead of CD players and taped songs off the radio using tapes. You remember watching both "Gremlins" movies You had slip on vans w/ black and white checkers You remember the Transformers You had to buy a pair of overalls when everyone started wearing them You remember Alf, the little furry brown alien from Malmac You remember the large amounts of hairspray used and it came in aerosol cans (value sized) You remember the beginning of New Kids on the Block You owned an I.O.U shirt and 'parachute' pants. Tennis shoes had to have velcro. You put your icecream money in the zippered pocket on your tennis shoes. You know what a banana clip is for and you had one. Mullets were cool!
