"Way Back When"

Do you remember when:
It was actually worth getting up on Saturday mornings to watch cartoons,

You know that the phrase "How rude" comes from Stephanie on Full House,

Taking plastic cartoon lunch boxes to school was cool,

You danced to "Wannabe" from the Spice Girls,

Hot wheels was a huge hit,

Slap bracelets were the new craze,

Getting the urge to say "NOT" after just about every sentence,

Where in the World is Carmen San Diego was the best computer game ever,

Kimberly, the pink ranger, and Tommy, the green ranger, were meant to be together,

You watched Home Alone 1, 2, and 3...and tried to pull each and every prank,

The phrase, "I've fallen and I can't get up",

You knew all the characters life stories on Saved By the Bell,

You had atleast one Tamagatchi, Gigapet, or Nano and took it every where,

Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys were the best mystery books,

Big fat erasers were the stuff,

All your school supplies were Lisa Frank,

When going to by a Beanie Baby, all the new ones were sold out,

Stick on earrings,

"Talk to the hand" was the cool phrase,

You always said, "Well then why don't you marry it",

Slinky's were the in thing,

Razor scooters were cool,

Stirrup pants....enough said,

Bright makeup, oversize sweaters, and big hair as well,

Light up sneakers too,

You rented VHS instead of DVD,

Caller ID was a new thing,

The Chicago Bulls were the best team ever,

Red Light, Green Light,

Heads Up 7 Up,

Kickball and Dodgeball,

Hop Scotch,

Tree Houses,

Hula Hoops,

Running through the sprinkler,

The Little Mermaid,

Crying when Mufassa died on The Lion King,

Happy Meal toys...choosing a barbie or a hot wheel,

Getting the privilege of sitting in the front seat of the car,

Drinking Squeeze Its,

Tang,

Capri Suns,

The Magic School Bus,

Barney,

Wishbone,

Playhouse Disney Channel - you thought Blue on Blues Clues was a boy and Magenta was a girl,

Mr Rodgers,

The Big Comfy House,

Wheel of Fortune,

Kool-Aid was the drink of choice,

Begging to go to McDonalds for dinner every day,

Toys R Us overruled the mall,

Decisions were made by eeny meeny miney moe,

Being old referred to anyone over 20,

You thought that the Ninja Turtles would rule the world,

Cause I do, and I miss it!
