soothsayer Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Wow really, I haven't heard it in ages. I think my daughter knew it at one time but it's been a while. When I was a kid I always knew X-mas was right around the corner when I would see it on tv. Oooooooooh toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nienna Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 It's depressing that the "retro" cartoon crap they sell at Hot Topic are shows I grew up with... and the kids they're marketing to don't have a clue what it is! *L* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soothsayer Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 We use to get the toys r us catalogs and circle the stuff we wanted. We didn't get everything of course but it was fun to dream and then get dissapointed. :laughing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaneDead Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 as well they should be. the 80's are awesome!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sunday9 Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 as well they should be. the 80's are awesome!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> for whatever reason the 80's seem to be the most missed decade ever. Radio stations have 80's hours, nick at night is almost exclusively 80's shows now, there's a slew of new bands basically just imitating 80's bands like Kaiser Chiefs (who look like Duran Duran), Franz Ferdinand, The Killers, Interpol, Bloc Party, The Faint, Ladytron.....and bands like New Order and the Smiths are more popular now than they were in their 1980's prime.......retro videogaming is "cool"......kids wear t-shirts of atari, justice league of america, Rubiks Cube, HeMan, etc.... the 1980's....apparently America can't get past it.

They're are some cools things that took place back then but..............the freakin' yuppies left a collective bad taste behind. :doh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sybil Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 ... old and scary ... when i was young.. first learning to drive and all that, 136mph down 94 didnt seem like even a half-bad idea... ...now, 95mph is about how fast i travel... its like this "old voice" in my head overrides the "young voice" and i think of consequences as a serious thing now... ..i used speeding as an example because speed has always been a favorite thing of mine.. getting older is fun to me.. i really view many things differently now after a bunch of trial-error-experience-mistake-consequences-mental notes.. ... old and SMART(ER) ... :innocent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
