ReplyDeleteSo funny!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I was guilty of about 60 of those. How sad, but good times!
ReplyDeleteI could make a comment on each and every one of those! Ironically we're watching the original Ninja Turtles 3 right now. Brody is obsessed with it.
ReplyDeleteLOL, Ok, All of those apply to me!!!! Thats nuts! except #40! I never had a party at Mcdonalds or had been to one. Everything else, even singing the silly song is right on! :) Awe.. we had lots of cool stuff to grow up in, I can't think of that many for kids today
ReplyDeleteKids today are way too "old", the movies, games and such they have today, even the kid ones just have no childlike innocence anymore. I'm sure I spelled something in there wrong... by the way, I not only had a Popple, but I had the Popples sleeping bag. I loved that thing!
ReplyDeleteMan, I ROCKED at Skip-it! I was the Skip-it QUEEN! I'm so cool...
ReplyDeleteI was always jealous of the people that owned Skip-its. I had to play with the neighbors.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone remember that one ball thing with the rim around it that you'd stand on and and bounce?...It looked like Saturn. It just popped in my head but I can't remember what it was called.
...I was really bad at it.
I remember!!! But I can't remember the name... my brothers had one.
ReplyDeletePogo Ball!! I was terrible at those too, but I was pretty narly on the skip-it. That thing looked terrible when I was done with it!
ReplyDeletePogo Ball? Really? That doesn't ring a bell...but what do I know...I never had one either way.
ReplyDeleteI googled "80's balance ball toy" and came up with pogo ball... so I googled that and there's plenty of pictures! I didn't have one either, I stunk at it anyway
ReplyDeleteI loved the pogo ball! It was like an extension of my legs. I bounced on it for hours. I have a picture of my bouncing on it while doing jump rope. I didn't do any cool tricks or anything...just bounced for hours
ReplyDeleteI tried googling it too...but I must have put something funky in cuz I got nothin'.
ReplyDeleteChelcie, I want to see this picture...
