4733ArticleDalek227That IS pretty cool about the Teddy Ruxpin thing. Man I miss that era of The Disney Channel. I know, I gotta get over it because it's never coming back. Welcome To Pooh Corner, Dumbo's Circus, Mousercise, etc. It sounds a little silly, but it hurts my heart a little bit to know that there are adults out there in their 30s and early 40s that don't have any experience watching these classic Disney and Nick shows because they couldn't afford Cable or Satellite. I didn't realize until the past ten years when discussing some of these shows with old classmates that quite a few of them grew up with just ABC, NBC and PBS and a VCR. I never knew how truly lucky I was as a kid. Quite spoiled compared to some of my classmates apparently and it didn't occur to me at the time. Dec 19, 2018View
4734ArticleDalek227DirtyD79, I'd have to agree with that statement. Oftentimes I'll see a Barnes and Noble, Best Buy, Bath and Body Works and Old Navy/Gap store in a strip mall with a cell phone store added in for good measure. There will also be several fast food places in the parking lot or next door. I'd rather visit those stores than the higher end ones at the mall. I loved the mall when it had the cool stores, but now the cool stores are either gone or their own entities outside the malls.Mall MemoriesDec 19, 2018View
4747ArticleDalek227I loved when McDonald's did the Christmas Plus stuff. I loved the Muppet Babies, the Oliver and Company plush ornaments, Sebastian the crab ornament, etc. Also I LOVED Rodney and Ramona SO SO much. I was talking to my mom about them the other day.Have a Plush Christmas!Dec 20, 2018View
4745ArticleDalek227A lot of people I know say that for them seeing that commercial for the first go round of the year signals "Ahh, Christmas is coming". I think I saw it the very last few days in November this year.Hershey's Kisses Christmas Bells CommercialDec 20, 2018View
4746ArticleDalek227I loved these catalogs so much. It was fun circling toys you wanted. Even though you knew you'd never get them all, it was just a fun activity. I remember I had the Baby Skates doll. All I Want for Christmas…Dec 20, 2018View
4748ArticleDalek227My mom went craaaaazy overboard with Stockings and I loved it. I wish I had the means to do that for my son but we still get some cool stuff. When I was really young I had that Tinkerbell little girls perfume and makeup set in my stocking. The yearly big tin/box of Crayola Crayons. Silly string, bathtub crayons, lots of candy, new tooth brush and tooth paste, water color set, just so much stuff. It was really kind of ridiculous to spoil us as much as they did but again, I can't really say that I didn't enjoy it and sometimes i'm the same way with my son, or try to be. It was only last Christmas when he was 13 that it finally occurred to me to stop getting him lots of junk just so it looks like he's getting a lot. Just get what he actually asked for and call it good. Stocking StuffersDec 20, 2018View

4784ArticleDalek227LOL yes, I agree it sounds odd. It's hard to explain as we ALL knew they were just stupid little joke notes. Kind of like 10 year olds pretending to kill their friends playing War or Cops and Robbers. Back then you could joke around a bit like that and it not be such a big deal. These days it's harder to determine what's a joke. We were both actually fairly dorky (despite me having a crush on him and him being kind of popular) and the biggest goody two shoes you'd ever meet so that is why it was so funny to people. I guess we could get away with messing around like that BECAUSE people knew we would never do that. I guess it's complicated. I'd consider my sense of humor morbid even today. I'd still never hurt anyone or wish death on anyone. As much as Mandy was terrible to me i'd never wish death upon her. I like to watch the ID channel and read crime novels and there might be some morbidity to that, but I assure you i'm not someone that would participate in such things LOL and by looking at me I don't ooze creepy I swear.Being An 80's and 90's Fat Kid Part 3Jan 09, 2019View
4785ArticleDalek227I too think that deep down, despite how I was often just trying to blend in, a part of me WANTED to stand out a bit. A part of me craved a little positive attention and being a little "shocking" in a not physically harmful way made people laugh and maybe that's part of the reason.Being An 80's and 90's Fat Kid Part 3Jan 09, 2019View
