That pretty much sums it up! Well said!

tickledpink,

I just read your post where you said you used to say "skaburp". I have never heard that before in my life, but I crack up everytime I say it http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif . I'll have to add that one to my vocabulary.

ROTFL!!! You guys are so funny! I'm glad y'all contributed to this thread.

Onyx03: I STILL have my easy bake oven! Without the accesories of course (pans, etc). PinkCashmere: You were supposed to use a 100 watt bulb, not 10. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif My cakes came out good.

OH - What about "The Greatest American Hero", "Bossom Buddies" and "Phoenix"? Remember Taylor Dayne "Tell It To My Heart"? I was a Lisa Lisa fan and I LOVED the "Jets". "You Got It All" is STILL my jam. Brings back memories of me prentending to sing it to my Junior High School crush.....in front of my mirror with my hairbrush. Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about..... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

Did anybody else do the Cabbage Patch and Wop as much as me?

I just knew I was going to marry Michael Jackson(that was somewhere between the 1st and 3rd nose job). Those highwater pants and sweater vests just did something for me http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif !!

I snacked on pickles, Grippos, and Lemon Heads. Washed it all down with a big ole glass of Big Red or Grape Faygo!

Did anybody wear those jeans that had the leather, jewels, suede on the front of the legs?

I could say more, but most of my memories have been mentioned. Man, I LOVE this thread!!

Okay I never had an easy bake oven. I had an Holly Hobby oven, dont even act like you dont know who Holly Hobby was. Then I had Fresh N Fancy. Remember we could make our own lipstick and cologne. Hmph! My lipstick was always clumpy! I had a Pink Panther bike. And no bike was complete with out a basket with little flowers on it and a horn. Just to let everyone know ---I was coming through. It's a good thing too, 'cause stearing straight was my weakness. Remember playing those silly hand games like... That's the way, uh huh uh huh, I like it, uh huh uh huh! And Ut oh Sergio, Sergio Valente, Sergio Valente jeans. ooooohhhhh and remember when the only name brand jeans you wore were french toast and Gold diggers! Now if you didn't have Gold diggers or Osh Kosh you were not cool!! Now who remembers doing cheers? What I'd be first in line talking about " Shake shake shake that booty, My name is Nikki and I'm shaking my booty, " Or Hollywood goes swingin', Or The Charlie Brown. My name is Nikki and as you see I do the Charlie Brown so viciously....." Dang! I'm old. And it hit me one day when I asked some child in my Accounting class if she remembered Private Benjamin ( the tv show). She was like ----who? -----Then I had the nerve to ask her about the Sonny N Cher show. Talk about Not a clue!
Peace Pretty Nikki

Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised... Proverbs 31:29-30

Did anyone else have yo-yos? They had a big thick heel with a hole in it. What about twister beads? I would change them everyday to match my outfit. Dwayne Wayne glasses (come on yall). Braces with headgears. oxford shirts and polo or izod shirts (but there better not be a cheetah or something on it). Flip up collars with three or four gold chains. I live in Texas so if you wore your jellies in July, they would flat out MELT!!! Braxton Jeans!!! Ropers boots (remember I am in Texas), snakes or lizard skin boots. Adidas warm up suits with a turtle neck under it, and tight short basketball shorts with long socks. twisted rope headbands. school pictures with a front and side picture on the same photo. I'm going back to Cali, Cali, Cali...
Fat Boys (All you can eat!!!). Baby hair slicked down with GREASE (no gel back in tha day). Remember when boys would try to get your attention with SSSSS. Or "Will you go with me. Yes or no. Circle one and give it to me after school". Remember Bunk (as in "that party was BUNK!!!"). Foil at the end of your braids, and POLKA DOTS (Dana Dane and Kwame). Fried baloney (do not front). Dont forget to cut the sides with a fork. Water and grease(bergamont) to make your hair lay down. Big wheels and the little red things with the slides. You could watch a whole damn movie when you pulled the lever. The Roach, the roach, the roach is on the wall..You be Illin', Orange Juice Jones (Walking in the rain...close you mouth cause you cold busted!!) U-G-L-Y say you don't got no Alibi, you ugly, your mama say you ugly! Your mama jokes (don't talk about my mama man!!!). spinning around by the shoulder if you wanted to fight or "cross this line if you bad".
I am about to split my side!!!
