You made it! -huggles- I don't remember flexies. confused I remember clackers, though. And what was that thing called where you put a rigid plastic circle around your ankle with a string and a weight attacked and flipped it around in circles, hopping over the string?

edit: found it! it was called Skip It.

I was born in '61. I also survived sponges wiping down counters (still do), meat thawed on the counter, the riots of '68, black & white tv, climbing trees (although I did break my leg letting go of a ladder I was hanging from when my dad told me not to climb up it...lol), ingesting St. Joseph's Aspirin for Children (damn that was good stuff). walking to my elementary school on my own, spankings (oh yeah, I deserved them).

'63, and doin' fine. remember the original easy-bake oven? i think i killed mine when the light bulb melted the plastic. slinkys. those oddball fabrics our clothes were made from. hippie vans. the flower children that i was supposed to avoid. candy that still cost 2¢. fishing for minnows in the irrigation ditch. no bike helmet. skate keys. roller rinks and drive-ins. a&w hamburgers.
elephant bells. the wedgie shoe. big hair (which i could never achieve). halter tops with fringe. smoking in public places. smoking before the age of 18 (or whatever it is now).
wow. i remembered something.

The one I wanted when I was five had a lemon on the end and sounded like a rattle when you skipped. I was so jealous of the kids who brought theirs to school! They still make something similar. I bought one for my daughter but instead of a lemon it has a weird, heavy and awkward thing on the end with a ribbon that extends from it.

I was a child of the late 80's. :3
I don't really remember much of it
though since I was born in 1988.
PostPosted: Sat May 15, 2010 6:19 pm


I was born 1978. So, I really only remember the 80s. Horrid as they were, I still have memories of them. Neon colored clothing, jelly shoes, My Little Pony, and Cabbage Patch Kids.
Oh geez. Totally flash backs. I need a drink.

I was born 1964 and I am glad they never had those cabbage patch kids when I was younger.

This. And, yes - I remember smoking in the hospital after surgery. Wax pop bottles and Pop Rocks. And Archie and Dennis the Mennis comics, as well as all of the DC and Marvel. XD
@ The Bunny of wind - But, please - no wedgies of any kind, and NO cabbage Patch dolls.
@THE Birthday Charity - Yes! I stole it from my little sister. lol
