I remember when...

crfische · May 2010

...I used to really love having intellectual conversations for fun. Now, when work is done, my brain is off.

...I had a cellphone that came with it's own backpack.

...when I didn't have a cellphone.

...when I played coleco vision. GOD that was awesome.

I had a maroon one. It said, "second place is the first loser"

...when the work whistle would go off and I would slide down my dinosaur's neck and get the fuuck out of there. Oh wait. That was the Flintstones.

Kiki, I always WANTED to land on the lemon juice one.

Perms? Anyone?

I remember when I sounded like an uneducated redneck from BFE Kentucky.

When Princess Di died

My favorite pair of jeans were skinny, and had slits in the back that were closed by bows.

*Note: Here, everything 80's is back in style. The giant eyeglass frames, the mismatching socks, bright colored leggings.... oh man. It's bad. I kept thinking, as I was reading through, "I saw that yesterday"*

T and I just said last night that when they made the Karate Kid with the girl it was REACHING and will never be the same without Daniel son.

It's here too! I HATE IT. I will never go back!

AmoroAgain · May 2010

I had a No Fear T shirt! It was the hockey one. It said something like, "Give blood, Play hockey". My grandma bought it for me, and she thought it was the weirdest thing ever.

Remember the shirts that used to change color with heat, or water, or something. I forget what they were called, maybe Hypercolor?. They were so cool because after PE your pits were a different color (not dingy white like normal)

Oh, and Bart Simpson "Eat My Shorts" shirts. I begged for one.

kikibaby · May 2010

Ugh, I'm so over kids wearing those stupid 80's sunglasses now... they're so ugly! They were ugly in '86, and they're ugly now.

pooh8402 · May 2010

"Did I do that?"

I still say that to this day.

crfische · May 2010

Perms never stuck in my hair. STUPID.

Moneypenny424 · May 2010

Pogo Bal (why they thought it should only have one "l" is beyond me) in 4th grade.

Get in Shape Girl (which I've posted about before)

When i couldn't drive and thought it would be awesome to drive myself to McDonald's or Taco Bell whenever I wanted.

Pitfall and Pole Position on Atari.

Having the worst fake ID in history!

I thought the same thing until I saw that Mister Miyagi is played by JACKIE CHAN. That's pretty solid.

AmoroAgain · May 2010

I looked like a goddamn poodle with a perm in my hair. And not those cute, super ringlety style. Oh no, it was a wavy, frizzy mess. Probably didn't help that I had a mullett too.

[Deleted User] · May 2010

My friend, Suzanne, used to get perms only in her bangs. She was awesome.

Like this? Mine was more of an old lady q-tip style. Notice the glasses.. I wasn't lying:

Note the coca cola sweatshirt (you can't really see the logo, but I remember it) and the nintendo watch.

Moneypenny424 · May 2010

I would have KILLED to be on Double Dare! Or that FunHouse show.

Hyper-color, including the shorts that were not a good idea for anyone.

Also Vuarnet shirts and Umbros (not necessarily together).

Birks with socks.

My late 90s dark purple lipstick--to go with the White Zin.

strlzfan11 · May 2010

My mom thought putting sponge rollers in our hair was cool.

Stackeye210 · May 2010

I always wanted a perm. It'd have never worked, OR looked good.

So I used to do my bangs like this! I have a picture in 3rd grade totally rocking it.

OH. EM. GEE. I loved JTT. I had 2 of his posters on my wall and was so sad when he left Home Improvement. I stopped watching it after that.

Moneypenny424 · May 2010

I always thought perms were so cool--but for some reason, my naturally curly hair was less cool.

I know what you mean about that. It just wasnt the same!!

I'm too old for JTT--in my day it was the Two Coreys and Kirk Cameron. Oh, and the New Kids.

crfische · May 2010

Remember when Nintendo came out with the power pad? Man, that was like...huge.

Nebb · May 2010

When all the books you read were 1cm thick baby sitters club books or sweet valley twins.
