leg warmers
tights with super huge shirts and ankle boots
super tight Jordache jeans

The parachute pants I remember were nylon and made a funny sound when the wearer walked. (thank goodness I never owned any)

Fish tanks are an expensive addiction

Ever felt that way 'bout something? I feel that way about the movie "Dirty Dancing", I didn't like it 1st time 'round in the 80s and endured a repeat last week on tv.

That patrick Swayze character isn't even likeable! He is a turkey. Why all the fuss?

Anyway..... tell me about things that are really popular that just don't hit your radar screen

Sponge Bob Squarepants.

Why aren't there any quality children's shows these days?

Yeah Cory Addict and tribblehappy, you are right, the old cartoon where much better ...

Like Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd, oh no – wait a minute – wasn’t it all about shooting the rabbit?

Or like Road Runner and Whiley the Coyote, oh no – wait a minute – the coyote always dies about 100 times per episode.

Well, maybe Mickey Mouse, oh no – wait a minute – weren’t the early ones extremely racially prejudiced?


The point I am trying to make here is that cartoons are a reflection of the time when they were made (as is anything else that was mentioned so far in this thread). In not too many years from now people will reflect back to the good old days when Sponge Bob Squarepants was created and dismiss the “new” created cartoons of their time.

Back in the old days, there were not that many quality Children shows on either, first of all because there were way less channels available. I bet you that if you would count the absolute number of quality shows today you would get a higher result than way back when, for example Dora the Explorer (teaches Spanish as well), ChalkZone, Various Discovery Kids shows, Animal Planet shows, etc.

Don’t get me wrong, there are quite a few shows where I think that they are not suitable for children, but that is a whole different issue.

ok, wanda sykes is one of the funniest people on the planet right now

and parachute pants, as i remember them, were nylon cargo pants with lots of zippers in odd places. [link=here]http://store.yahoo.com/parachutepants/bugboyparpan.html" style="COLOR: #ff0044[/link] is a set of good examples of what they used to look like, although these are new versions of the old pants

Fluorescent/neon clothing. Ugh.

I love Fluorescent/neon clothing!! But only when worn properly like in Japan! In Tokyo PAAARTY!!! ]:%)

Not those old ones though.. the neon short shorts

'boy bands. pop music. hondas. vanilla coke/pepsi/dr. pepper etc etc. ipod. gmail. pre-washed/bleached/rock washed work out hole-y clothes. pink. paris hilton/britney spears/lopez/that other idiot... simpson... and all the other girly stupid stupids. '

I agree with all of them except of course The Simpsons, they deal with current affairs, plus the the dodgey bands that alex mentioned.
