    If you wore clothes that were a mix between disco and 80's hip hop. Also you had to sport a mullet.

    The boys and girls sang the different parts of Meatloaf's "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights" at parties.
    Do you love? Will you love me forever......

    The last song at the school dance was Always and Forever (always).

    Eddie Murphy made funny movies (Beverly Hills Cops & Trading Places)

    If you were driving 70 on the highway, you were going wayyyyyy too fast!

    When Barbie introduces her boring little sister, Skipper. Wow, now there was a real bummer!!! lol

    lol I had her! I remember thinking as a kid, "why are her boobies so small compared to Barbie's?" Poor prepubescent Skipper! lol


    I was born in '89 and we still did MASH and my brother had a glo worm ... loved saturday morning cartoons, tying my shirts with scrunchies (or one of the circle things where you loop in and over to secure), non-matching socks (but more 'cause I was lazy? lol My mom called me a ragamuffin but maybe she just didn't want me in on "the trend")...
