* you had light up LA gear shoes- Yep, and they had pink sparkley shoe laces.
* you read all the babysitter books and wanted to be just like them Stacy was my favorite! For a while I pretended that I had diabetes to be like her
* you watched teengae muntant ninja turtles on tv heroes in a half shell, TURTLE POWER
* most of your clothes were neon and bright flourescent colors check
* you thought kirk cameron was so hot I wasn't a huge Kirk fan, but I did watch growing pains!
* You ever owned a pair of Jelly Shoes I owned more than one pair!
* you remember popples I still have my popples!
* you broke a body part on a slip and slide I never broke anything but I had one. Those were fun!
* your ponytails were either on the side or up very high like pebbles guilty of both
* you can rap to the fresh prince of bel air song
Now this is the story all about how my life got twist turned upside down and I'd like to take a minute just sit right there, I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town of Bel Air...
* You remember the craze, and then the banning of slap bracelets yes, and people still had them at school and one girl got suspended. Those things hurt! But... weren't those from the early 90's?
Does anybody remember the Fruit Slush's? They were frozen fruit juice and they came in a little cup and you slushed them up? I liked grape!

I was born in 87, but every single one of those applies to me, except I don't remember WHEN New Kids came out, but I had like 10 posters in my room, b/c my older sister loved them. I eventually did too, even when they broke up!! I still know the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air song, and my little sister watches the re-runs and hates when I sing along. Do you remember those things that you tucked your shirt into so it was pulled off to the side? Also, the shoe laces that were all curled up, and stretch pants, and tight rolled jeans for the guys. Man, I was young, but I do remember stuff!

Man, I had like 3 pages of these lists somewhere. I'll have to try and find them again and post more. *you remember when new kids on the block came out Yup. Owned all their tapes too, plus a few buttons and other odds and ends. *you read all the babysitter books and wanted to be just like them I still have my collection at home. I had the series through #70-something. All the mysteries and all of the super specials. I loved that series. I also loved the TV series. *most of your clothes were neon and bright flourescent colors *Raises hand* That'd be me. *You ever owned a pair of Jelly Shoes Sure did. *thinkin doogie howser was hot Not particularly, but I never missed the show. *you remember popples Have a couple of the stuffed animals, watched the cartoon religiously and had a book on tape of them. Oh, and I owned a few Popples glasses from Pizza Hut. *your ponytails were either on the side or up very high like pebbles Mmm-hmmm. Where else would they be?  * You remember the craze, and then the banning of slap bracelets They were banned? Anyhoo, yes. I owned several. |

What, no category for hair-bands?
The music from that time was amongst the best. Quiet Riot, White Snake, Def Leppard, Bannarama, The Buggles.
867-5309 <-- Remember that one?

I was born in '85 but every one of those applies to me. Except, I don't remember popples. And I never broke a bone on a slip and slide, but I got a lot of nasty grass burns. It was a releif when the slip and slide with a pool attached to the bottom was invented!
