How to tell if you're a child of the eighties
CHILDREN OF THE 80'S You're an 80's child if.... You know all the words to "Ice Ice Baby."
You wanted to be The Hulk for Halloween.
You had a crush on one of the New Kids on the Block members. (Or you know all of their names: Donnie Walbergh, Danny Wood, Joey McEntyre, Jordan Knight and Jonathan Knight. Scary isn't it?)
You wanted to be on Star Search.
You can remember what Michael Jackson looked like before he had plastic surgery. (Remember "I'm Bad"? And "Thriller"?)
You wore a banana clip or one of those slap-on wrist bands at some point...or heaven forbid one of those T-shirt rings on one side during your youth.
You did the side ponytail or the flipped bangs look.
You were styling with your French rolled pants.
You wore multiple pairs of socks in the middle of the summer just so you could be "hip" You had slouch socks and puff painted your own shirt at least once.
Cabbage Patch Kids!! Rainbow Brite and Punky Brewster!!
You knew what Willis was "talkin' 'bout." You know the profound meaning of "Wax on, Wax off."
You still associate Michael J. Fox with Family Ties, Teen Wolf and Back to the Future.
You knew about The Facts of Life.
You were upset when She-ra, Princess of Power, and He-Man got canceled.
You can remember watching Full House and Saved by the Bell for endless hours, back when they were new episodes.
You have seen at least 10 episodes of Fraggle Rock.
You hold a special place in your heart for "Back to the Future."
You know where to go if you "wanna go where everybody knows your name"
You wanted to be a Goonie. ("Goonies never say die.")
You remember Madonna in her cone stage. Y
ou knew "The Artist" when he was humbly called "Prince."
You even wore flourescent-neon, if you will, clothing...
You could breakdance, or wished you could.
You remember when ATARI was a state of the art video game system.
On that note, you remember when Nintendo and Super Mario Bros. was the coolest thing ever invented.
You remember M.C. Hammer.
You can still sing the rap to "Fresh Prince of Bel Air."
You own any cassettes.
You owned a pair of L.A. Gear, Keds, or Converse tennis shoes.
You carried your lunch to school in a Gremlins or an ET lunchbox.
You have ever pondered why Smurfette was the ONLY female smurf.
My Little Pony, Gummy Bears, Transformers, PinWheel with Molly the Mole, Double Dare, Voltron(the show that inspired Power Rangers) and Zoobilee Zoo are familiar to you.
You ever had a Swatch Watch.
You actually spent countless hours trying to perfect the "Care Bear stare."
You had Wonder Woman or Superman underoos.
You believed that "By the power of Greyskull, you HAD the power!"
You thought that Transformers were more than meets the eye.
You spent hours in the basement building andm rebuilding Lego cities. Big wheels and bicycles with streamers were the way to go.
With your pink portable tape player, you sang back up to Debbie Gibson.
"Party like it's 1999" seemed SO far away!!
