dude. oregon trail. was the best game. ever.

a lot of those are 90s, cause i recognize them and i was born in '90.

[Nicolatofu]

I loved that game MASH! I was born in 90 also.. but many of those sound familiar. I remember Miss Mary Mack.. and Miss Susie's steamboat pops up when i think of that....

[*jooleeah*]

Even though I wasn't born in the 80's, I can recognize half of them. Oregon Trail= best game ever. And Ms.Mary Mack was the best clapping game EVER. <33 Duck Tales.

[ghjgfkgfk]

number 36 is from the 90s. i know that because i stayed up late watching i love the 90s last night

[Heathasm]

12. When it was actually worth getting up early on a Saturday to watch cartoons.

13. You wore a ponytail on the side of your head.

15. You got super-excited when it was Oregon Trail day in computer class at school.

ALL of them applied to me rofl, i just thought these were especially true

[lilliannnn]

haha i wasn't born in the 80s ('91) BUT alot of those things apply to me.. i guess i was born in the wrong time lol

<33.

[weirdness]

I wasn't born in the 80's and only like 2 or 3 apply to me. Haha, I'm not a child of the 80's. Most of the things on the child of the 90's don't apply to me neither.

[silver-rain]

Hah, I was born in 88 and a lot of them apply to me. Heh, Oregon Trail was a good game; Ms. Mary Mack haha; Saturday morning cartoons, MASH! Heh, for S, I used Shack instead...

[starlette]

oh wow. I remember like, everything on that list. I was born in 85 so yeah. What a life I had back then. I used to get up at 6 every morning and watch cartoons. I had a crush on one of the ninja turtles. I dont remember which one. Oh, and I totally wanted to be jam. And thats early 80's, but my aunt cindy used to rent it on tape for me from blockbuster. And now, like a true jem fan, I have every episode on tape, that I bought from eBay, and I have a bunch of Jem t-shirt. She is the shiznit.

[x LUV x ALWAYS x]

haha, i dont really know most of those but im from the 90's and whatever.

erm, you can find most of those things on www.blogthings.com

[pAtRiCk_sTar]

i was born in the nineties, but haha i recognized too many of those for my own good the mash, the jelly shoes, the miss mary mack, hahaaha good times

[crazeegirl411]

oOh a lot of them are 90s too...brings back the memories. The "cool" and "hip" new things in the 80s and 90s were so much cooler...maybe cuz I was a kid.

Dude...the cartoons in the morning are sooo much better than now. It's so DUMB now, like for 4 year olds or whatever.

I remember Oregon Trail...and CARMEN SAN DIEGO! Those were two of the games that everyone had..man.

I still scrunch my socks =X. Cuz it's soooo cold, having those short socks. I like long socks a lot more.

[EmmalieV]

haha , yes but everyone remember

JUST because you werent born in the 80´s and you happened to see these in the 90´s doesnt mean they werent made before.

logic.

[starlette]

haha , yes but everyone remember

JUST because you werent born in the 80´s and you happened to see these in the 90´s doesnt mean they werent made before.

logic.

ah yes, some people seemed to miss that fact.

You remember "I've fallen and I can't get up"

I saw that commercial the other nite at like, 4 o clock in the morning. I laughed just as hard as I did in elementary school. They shoudl seriously consider making a new commercial.

[parallel]

I, unfortunately, was not born in the 80s. Yes. I am ashamed. =[

But you know what. I used to, and remember a lot of those things on that list. Wow. I guess I was born in the 80s at heart. Yess.

[gelionie]

I was born in 1990... but I don't really believe there is much difference in 1989 and 1990... yet I have only experienced #40. How sad.

[misoshiru]

i was born 89. and yeah, i remember quite a few of those.

[kaB00M]

I was born in 1990, I can still remember I used to do those things.
.......good times.

[lolthissiteisfun...]

Omg i was born in the 90s but I know like all of those. lol, i loved the pound puppies and oregon trail.

[vampireduster]
