*The original list said "child of" the 80's. I personally was a "late teen/young adult" during that time.
I'm not answering anything else.
Jelly shoes *sound* so comfortable. I remember otherwise.
Though really, although I know the list, really I was about five when all that stuff was in. So I guess I'm still *kind of* young... ;-)
Day glo ruled...
I must have been a totally out of it child of the 80s because the jelly shoes and the "where's the beef" commercials.
This really ticks me off.
~Every~ single damn one of those is something I remember.
I still have a rubik's cube on my desk.
Except all of the sides are the same color.
