We pondered how they figured out the schedule. Wasn't it like 100 guys...and her? What did her day planner look like?!
I think there was one male she didnt have to worry about. You know the one she hung out with the most.

GAH! hehe
Ahhh... the days of spandex, big hair (ala 5 cans of White Rain) and glam rock. Three things I don't see returning (Thank God).

Re: You Know You Grew Up In The 80's If...
What's REALLY sad is that I consider myself "growing up in the 80's" kind of gal mostly, (grad high school in '88) til I realize that half the stuff on that list I was too old for, and I nod my head to as many of the ones on the lists I've seen for growing up in the 70's!
Let's see, guilty of Neon; guilty of the side ponytail (hated mom for that one, I dind't think it was stylish at all, long story there); guilty of leg warmers; never had a hypercolor shirt but wanted one; that and I totally wanted to steal my best friend's "Frankie Say Relax" shirt! Ugh, I was such a poor waver wannabe!
Fraggle Rock was awesome, Blossom was too young for me (saw it about twice and wanted to slap her) and I've seen more Fresh Prince on Nickelodeon in the last year than I ever did in the 80's. And still get annoyed by it! (remember when it came out and we were all laughing at the rapper who thought he could act? Now you mention his Fresh Prince days and the young'uns go "Huh??")

Here's a sample page:
Err whatever, can't get a picture to show, and get an error linking to it.

Re: You Know You Grew Up In The 80's If...
Okay, I remember/did/relate to about half of these but not cuz I grew up in the 80's (more like the 60's ) but I raised a kid in the 80's and I'm still waiting for She-ra and He-man to hook up!
Guess it's time to get rid of those jelly shoes, eh? I have some great pics of the neon and side ponytails to tease my daughter with and frequently do, lol. I was in a bar band during back then and we actually did that Bon Jovi song and others, lmao!!! Neon cropped shirt, shiny spandex biker pants and big hair that wouldn't budge even in a hurricane!! Good times. Btw, I still think mullets are sexy... NOT!

There was a GUY in one of my classes today that was wearing the ponytail on the side of his head! He wasn't trying to do it to be funny either, I'm pretty sure he's homosexual.
When I saw this, I thought about this thread.
