Ahh, games like codname ICEMAN, kings quest, etc.
Oh, the nostagia... I sound like my parents already.

I remember...................
Having like literally 1000 matchbox cars (ok I'm exaggerating slightly here), and lining them all up in my driveway, then pushing them all down at once.
When pinball machines were the coolest things around, and being able to get really high scores on them. (I'm very rusty now though.)
When words like cowabunga, awesome, bogus, cool were like the norm. I still say cool though, it's just one of those words ey???
wink.gif

When I used to play monopoly and I'd be the banker, and I'd always steal a few $500 notes out of the bank. I also remember having massive fights over that game, if my friend was winning, or the time she discovered that I was hiding massive amounts of money under the board, as well as adding houses to some of the property's that I had bought hehehehe, I'm a sneaky bitch I know

You'd have to say hopw you'd say "no" to drugs and cigarrettes incase you were ever offered...and you'd be like...
"No way"
"get a life"
"as if"
"no thanks"
...or my favourite... "no thanks, i have asthma"
(fat lot of good that did!)
Oh then there was the childrens TV, anyone remember fat cat who was fired because he didnt wear pants??...or maybe it was because was a convicted rapist...either way!!
Aaahh, the 80's, an ugly but memorable era.
 
I remember when fat cat's theme song was changed from the beatles song "OB-LA-DI, OB-LA-DA" to whatever crap they put on. "OB-LA-DI, OB-LA-DA" rocked my world when I was a kid... CLASSIC TUNE!!!!

Not sure if anyone has mentioned these yet:
*Punky Brewster-That girl rocked!!!! I had different coloured Punky shoes and boy did i think i was COOL!!!!
*Footrot Flats-I still watch it from time to time. Got to love dog!
*Waking up one chritmas morning to see a She-ra Casle in the longe room for me abd He-man Castle for my little bro. We thought we were the luckiest kids in the world.
*Labyrinth-If she just listened to that worm!!!!!!
*Dark Crystal- That scared me
*When you and your best friend thought you were so cool when you wore matching outfits out in public but had you side ponytails on different sides.
*Rippa Skippa ???-That bright skipping rope that really hurt if you were hit with it.
Damn i want to be a kid (in the 80's) again!!!!!!!!
I'm sure there's more but i have to get back to work (you just do not appreciate not having to work when you're a kid)
 
Working out if the person you 'loved' was right for you by how many times the letters LOVES appears in your names. i.e
JOE BLOW
LOVES
MARY SMITH
L = 0
O = 2
V = 0
E = 1
S = 2
2 1 2 = 212
2 + 1 + 2 = 5%
Haven't done that for YYEEAARRRSSSSSSS

Did you ever do the FLAMES one????
Same idea
Joe Blow
flames
Mary Smith
F-0
L-1
A-1
M-2
E-1
S-1
=6
Then count along the letters in the word flames
6= flameS
So all Joe and Marys relationship will amount to is sex!
F=friends
L=lovers
A=arguments
M=marriage
E=engaged
S=sex
(i think thats what they meant?)
