I remember most of that stuff. But we never had Commodore 64s. We had Apple
II's. And Back to the Future is still cool.

Hey You All
I got this from Alpha List and.......
YOU ARE A CHILD OF THE 80'S IF:
* You know what a "burnout" is.
* You owned/operated a 'Trapper Keeper'
* You know what "Psych" means.
* Once, while spending hours in the arcade, you actually lined
up quarters on the top panel of the game-to "reserve" your spot.
* You know the profound meaning of "Wax on, Wax off".
* You know that another name for a keyboard is a "Synthesizer".
* You can name at least half of the members of the elite "Brat Pack".
* You know who Tina Yothers is.
* You wanted to be a Goonie.
* You had top-of-the-line Commodore 64s in your jr. high computer lab
* You know who Max Headroom is.
* You ever wore fluorescent, neon if you will, clothing.
* You could breakdance, or wish you could.
* You wanted to be The Hulk for Halloween.
* Partying "like it's 1999" seemed SO far away.
* You thought that Transformers were more than meets the eye.
* You can, right now, hum to yourself the theme to 'Inspector Gadget'
* You wanted to be on Star Search.
* You can remember what Michael Jackson looked like before his nose fell
off.
* You wore a banana clip at some point during your youth, or knew someone
who did.
* You knew what Willis was "talkin' 'bout".
* You HAD to have your MTV
* You remember when Kramer was on a show called 'Friday's'
* 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 thought Molly Ringwald was REALLY cool.
* You actually thought "Dirty Dancing" was a REALLY good movie.
* You heard of Garbage Pail Kids.
* You knew "The Artist" when he was humbly called "Prince".
* You actually saw Ted Danson as the MacDaddy he played "Sam" to be.
* You remember when ATARI was a state of the art video game system.
* You own(ed) any 'cassette singles'
* You were led to believe that in the year 2000 we'd all be living on
the moon.
* You remember and/or owned any of the Care Bear Glass collection from
Pizza Hut. Or any other stupid collections they came out with.
* Poltergeist freaked you out.
* You carried you lunch to school in a Gremlins or an ET lunchbox.
* You have ever pondered why Smurfette was the ONLY female smurf.
* You know what a Doozer is.
* You wore bike shorts underneath a short skirt and felt stylish, or
knew someone who did.
* You ever had a Swatch Watch.
* You wore, or knew somebody who did, a pair of parachute pants.
* You remember when Saturday Night Live was funny.
* You had WonderWoman or Superman underoos.
* You know what a "Whammee" is.
If you can identify with at least half of this list then you, my friend,
are a "Child of the 80's".
