How many pairs of LA Gear shoes did you have? Did you weave the multi-colored laces?

I must have my garbage pail kids somewhere.


Remember candy cigarettes and Bazooka bubble gum?

I only had one pair of LA Gear shoes. I did have one pair of those multi-colored laces, but I never used them!


Garbage pail kids? I don't remember that!! I only remember Cabbage Patch kids. How'd I miss out on that?


Yup, I remember the candy cigarettes and Bazooka gum.

I used to love the old Looney Tunes cartoons too. I wish they'd put them back on again.

Did you do that thing where you folded over your pant leg, then rolled them up so they'd be really tight? Why did we do that? I was so envious of the girls who could do that big straight up curl thing with the bangs. I wish they'd bring back the hyprecolor shirts too. I loved those!!!!!!!!

Yes, I did do that sometimes!! I don't know why. I guess we did it because everyone else was. The 80s can keep the curl thing and the hypercolor shirts!!! Sorry!

OMG! Parachute pants!!!!

I had two pairs. I remember desperately needing Converse too.

Garbage Pail kids were trading cards that were just disgusting! But they came with that nasty gum, but we loved it!

The curl thing can stay, yes, but I loved slapping someone on the back and seeing the handprint on the hypercolor shirts!

Remember when MTV actually played music videos? Max Headroom?


Max Headroom Coke Commercial

I just finished looking at all of those cartoon theme songs that you posted! Oh, the memories!! I almost forgot about The Littles. I loved that show! And Jem was "truly outrageous"!!! I wanted to be a member of the Holograms!!

I freaking lived in my parachute pants. They were gray.

Hammer pants??? I had the ugliest pair of those too...

Ugh, and Spandex made it's debut in the 80's too.

I so looked forward to Saturday and Sunday cartoons. They were so good!

I loved the Littles.

I wanted to be Jem!

There's one more I'm trying to remember. It was something about Beverly Hills. The kids rode around in a limo with a pool. I wanted to be them!

Don't forget Keds and Reeboks!!!

Did your Baskin Robbins have the sundaes in the baseball helmets during baseball season? We always fought over who got what teams.

 

[honugirl]

Don't forget Keds and Reeboks!!!

OMG! Yes, Keds! I had the ones with the little designs on them... Remember Kangaroo Shoes with the little pocket on them? I used to put my milk money in there. I thought I was so cool!















OH MY GOSH!!!! Max Headroom!!! I totally forgot about that guy!

I remember everyone talking about how "fresh" and "new" and "advanced" he was.

I loved those commercials. Oh, remember these?

I loved Saturday and Sunday cartoons, too! Heck, I STILL watch cartoons on the Boomerang channel.


That Beverly Hills cartoon that you were talking about sounds vaguely familiar. Oh, it's bugging me now!! I've gotta go look that up.

Sweet! Thanks for the link!!

I don't remember the baseball helmets at Baskin Robbins. I didn't really go there very often. I usually went to TCBY or one of the other local ice cream shops. I loved Daves Ice Cream and Yami Yogurt. I think that they only have those two in Hawaii, though.

Stop having a boring tuna, stop having a boring life!​

What's the Boomerang channel? I may have to go look that up.

It was Beverly Hills teens.







Sweet! Thanks for the link!!

You're welcome!

BR used to be right down the street so we would ride our bikes there. Oh the horror! We rode our bikes on our own. With no helmets! We even had to ride through the cemetery to get there! How did we make it out alive?


Remember station wagons and the "way back"? It was so cool to sit in the "way back".

 

[tiggerfan1]

Oh, I loved the commercials with Bill Cosby!!!

I'm so going to make Jello Pudding tomorrow. Maybe I can figure out how to make my own pudding pops. The swirl ones were the best.

 

[honugirl]

Remember this commercial? We used to make fun of this.

What's the Boomerang channel? I may have to go look that up.

It's a cable channel that shows a lot of classic cartoons like Popeye, The Jetsons, Scooby Doo, etc. Fortunately, it was included with all of our cable channels!! Here's the website.

Yes, I remember station wagons! And yes, I remember the "way back" too!

Have fun! By the way, do they still sell pudding pops? I usually don't buy popsicles and stuff, so I haven't even looked at that part of the freezer section in years.

Who doesn't remember that commercial? That was definitely a classic.

Yikes!!

I know, crazy isn't it? I miss my pink banana seat Peugeot bike with the flowers and streamers on the handlebars.


Yes, I remember station wagons! And yes, I remember the "way back" too!

We must have sounded like such geeks,
"I get the way back!" I miss the way back... They need to bring station wagons back.

 

[honugirl]

No, they don't sell them anymore. They should bring them back.

But they should not bring back New Coke. Yuck!!!!!!

I've fallen and I can't get up!

I miss my old bike, too!!!

Hey, Honu, I'd better get to sleep now. This was so much fun! We'll definitely have to continue this tomorrow. I'm going to think of more things to add to the "You know that you grew up in the 80s if......." list.

Oh, before I go, are any of the hotties coming over tomorrow?
