Remember when?

No answers needed just memories.....

Remember when cereal had great prizes and you couldn't wait to get to the prize?

Remember when happy meals made kids happy?

Remember when you could go to the ice cream truck with a dollar and buy a ton of stuff?

Remember when you were a kid and if you had 10 dollars you were "rich"

Remember when before internet when kids actually played outside?

Remember when kids did stuff because it was fun not because it was cool?

Remember slip n slides?

Remember when Tang was the best powdered drink ever!?

Remember when radio stations would play rock, then pop, then a r&b songs? All on the same station

Remember when new music moved your soul and not just your ass?

Remember when staying up late was a privilage and an adventure?

Remember when before the internet you could idolize a actor or musician or athelete because you didn't know very much about their personal life?

Remember when kids played freeze tag and hide and go seek?

Remember when there were legitimate superstars in the 80's? In both music and television and movies?

Remember when "I ain't fraid of no ghost" or "E.T phone home" or "Any line from Beverly Hills cop" or "I'll be back" and other movie lines were quoted like a second language?

Remember the fun beer commercials?

Remember how funny Police Academy was?
Some of you orgers are so deceptive.....using my styles like a contraceptive....

Remember when a teacher could snatch up your kid and paddle his ass, then send him home for further asskicking??

lol

One teacher in my elementary school had a ping pong paddle that he used...the other (who I had for fifth grade) had something he called "Woody" omg It was a paddle about as big as a rowboat oar that was about an inch think and had holes drilled in it! omfg
I nearly was :spanked: by "Woody" for leaning back in my chair, but I chose to do a 500-word report on Abraham Lincoln instead!
I'm glad I had some negotiating skills back then!

Remember when cynicism was a foreign concept?

Remember when dandelions were flowers isntead of weeds?

Remember when you'd wish on the first star?

Remember when adults knew all the answers?

Remember jumping in mud puddles when it rained?

Remember when a towel made one helluva superhero cape?

Remember when your best friend in the whole world was a stuffed animal?
