Jomo's girl, the slap bracelets were the long straight plastic things that you hit against your wrist and they snapped and bent and turned into a bracelet!

oh I remember those ..

A slap bracelet (or snap bracelet) is a bracelet comprised of layered, flexible stainless steel bi-stable spring bands sealed within a colorful fabric cover. The bracelet can be straightened out, creating tension within the springy metal bands. The straightened bracelet is then slapped against the wearer's forearm, causing the bands to spring back into a curve which wraps around the wrist, securing the bracelet to the wearer. The slap bracelet was a popular fad among children, pre-teens and teenagers in the early 1990s and early and was available in a huge number of then-popular patterns and colors.

10. You had plastic streamers on your handle bars... and "spokey-dokes" or playing cards on your spokes for that incredible sound effect. Did that in the 70s, and it was hardly original then.

12. When it was actually worth getting up early on a Saturday to watch cartoons. It was in the 70s at least...stopped watching Saturday morning cartoons before I entered high school.

18. You wore stonewashed Jordache jean jackets and were proud of it. Never really saw the point of paying premium prices for designer labels...

19. L.A. Gear... need I say more. Similar issue..

22. You know the profound meaning of "WAX ON, WAX OFF". Yep

25. You can remember what Michael Jackson looked like before his nose fell off and his cheeks shifted. I remember when MJ was a little black boy singing with his brothers, long before mutating into a middle-aged white woman...

26. You have ever pondered why Smurfette was the only female smurf. Was too nauseated by that show to stick with it long enough to ponder that...

27. You took lunch boxes to school... and traded Garbage Pail Kids in the schoolyard. Took a lunch box in elementary school in the 70s...didn't have Garbage Pail Kids then.

36. You remember "I've fallen and I can't get up" That one still pops up in my head sometimes...

37. You remember going to the skating rink before there were inline skates.

38. You ever got seriously injured on a Slip and Slide. Played on them, never injured on one.

43. "Don't worry, be happy" remember it...

47. You remember boom boxes. and walking around with one on your shoulder like you were all that. Remember them, but never had the urge to lug one around on my shoulder...

48. You remember watching both "Gremlins" movies. in the theatre. Great flicks!

51. You thought Doogie Howser/Samantha Micelli was hot. And she still is

52. You remember Alf, the lil furry brown alien from Melmac.

53. You remember New Kids on the Block when they were cool... and don't even flinch when people refer to them as "NKOTB". They were cool?

59. You remember when mullets were cool! They were cool?

64. You remember "Where's the Beef?"

Here here, Lance link, scooby doo and the monkeys. vietnam, civil rights marches and the lunar landing. how about the gas lines and Jimmy carter the 70s were real man. far out

Remember all those, too
