All of the music... New Wave, Hard Core, all of the one hit wonders... the beginning of MTV - I remember that well - too bad the channel has gone to $hit now.

Skate and Destroy, the Bones Brigade...

Seeing The Cure 4 times in a year with 4 different girls ;)

Post by: Darth Joyda on May 29, 2003, 04:45:07 AM: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I was, also, a freakish fan whom bought anything that had the TMNT -logo. Action figures, pillows, blankets, posters, mugs - you name it, I had it. And the live movie rocked - I really thought Turtles were real afterwards.

I also remember the golden days of Nintendo 8-bit and the oh so legendary Super Mario Bros. ( accompanied with Duck Hunt ).

Title: Remember the 80\'s
Post by: mm on May 29, 2003, 12:03:09 PM: no, i\'m your personal messageboard spelling coach

if you actually grew up in the 80\'s, that would make you somewhere around 24-27 minimum (being age 6 in 1989 doesn\'t cut it). i would highly expect someone of that age AND from the US to be able to have some sense of proper spelling. slang is one thing, ignorance is another

fact: actually, it wasn\'t that great. Though the chance of getting caught was exciting. I was sorta hoping to.

Post by: Titan on May 30, 2003, 04:57:29 PM: I was in the 80s for 4 short years but what I remembered kicked ass. Ghostbusters, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Nintendo, Sega Masters system, Dukes of Hazzard (saw it alot on TV a few years ago but still counts), Thundercats, 80s cartoons of all kinds especially Transformers, A-Team and Miami Vice I guess are alright. I still like to listen to some 80s music on and off.
