    If you were male and had *THAT* Farrah Fawcett poster tacked to the ceiling over your bed...

    And you all should know what poster I am talking about...

    Oh my the Farrah Fawcett poster was awesome, I wish I still had it.

    When MTV played music videos all day I would sit there with a tape recorder and make mix tapes of all the songs I liked.

    Something else to remember tape recorders..... I feel old :tongue:

    You went to the theater to watch the first version of Star Wars...

    You actually own an original Cabbage Patch doll.... adopted at the time for $80

    Your jeans had purple glitter in the fabric

    You spent every Friday night at the roller rink with your white roller skates and the pom pom tassels

    The first boy you had a crush on, had a bobbed hair cut

    You thought it was cool to have a mullet

    You owned all things Hello Kitty when it was popular the first time around

    Michael Jackson had his original nose

    American Band Stand was what you watched for the latest songs and dances (not MTV)

    Your collar could actually make you hang glide if a big enough wind picked up!

    THIS!! Lol, all of this!
