Yup, so just gonna shut up now... I'm such a 1980's baby :D

[boscolio]

it's terrifying to realize i know about everything on that list. i was knee deep in most of it too. most of what's on this list is for girls. I definitely didn't go around calling myself JEM or wearing 8 pairs of flourescent socks over dance tights. the only thing is that hypercolor shirts were more in the early 90's than in the 80's. it's sad i know that too. :roll:

Pop Quiz: what's was ALF's real name?

[Trem]

didn't alf stand for alien life form?

[boscolio]

yes, but no. ;) I'm asking about ALF's real name. they used it all the time on the cartoon version of ALF.

[PeePeeBritches]

Gordon Shumway!! :D

[boscolio]

ding ding! :lol:
