I am 68% A Child of the 80s

Dreams are important, otherwise sleep is just eight hours of nothing.

I call it an obstacle course. Some of the others call it MacGyverland.

Only 20%. But I was born in 1986.

I think the poison that was used was applied to this knife, passed to the mutton when it was cut and then activated by the wine. - MacGyver.
Sometimes you just have to die a little inside to be reborn and rise again as a stronger and wiser version of you.
It's better to be a little sad than to be fake content.

72%... because I was smart enough to recognize that acid washed jeans were horrible.

glad they didn't ask about, say, wearing a mullet or wearing neon-coloured clothes or jelly shoes and bangles or...

Hey Kavi! You and I are tied at 68%.

Wabbit.... You're scaring me just a little.

You had big hair and though Bon Jovi was a god, didn't you?

yikes.

I think the only thing I didn't check off was the VCR thing. I can't remember what we, or anyone else, had!

Technically, I think maybe the Pound Puppies I remember were probably my sister's...but I did have a Cabbage Patch Kid...

LOL...bad thing is...I could probably take a 70s test and still score high there, too...

As in "Reese's Peanut Butter Cups", they look like M&M's, but have peanut butter in the center instead of chocolate

And they're really good!

But we're talking to people who eat Vegemite sandwiches.

What on earth is Vegemite?

(that reminds me of the "I Love Lucy" episode where Lucy gets toasted on a vegetable/vitamin potion while doing a commercial...)

Vegemite is this horrible noxious substance that some Austrailians trick tourists into eating on crackers.

It's like a cross between caviar and earwax!

No offense, Aussies... it just tastes that way to this Midwestern girl!

(and don't ask me why I know what earwax tastes like...)

Wow! I'm surprised! I'm a 64% c.hild of the 80s.
Not only did you experience the 80s... you are practically an expert.
You should be totally stoked! " I was born in 1980.

and very much proud of it!love the 80s! to me it's the best decade ever. love the songs, what happen back then it's really amazing to me...because I missed it, I was a baby, ok maybe not in 1989, but can't remember the feelings in the air back then...
PS: still love Thriller, to me it will always be the best music and thew best video ever!

76%... not bad, considering that the 80's were my highschool years!

Now where is that Adam Ant T-shirt that I used to wear...?

Although it would still be in style. Geez, I thought I was old...

No, I KNOW where my 'Frankie Says Relax' T-shirt is... right next to my George Michaels 'I want your sex' lunchbox and my Weird Al's 'Writing Lyrics for the Clinically Insane' instruction book.

God, I had so much fun in the 80's!

Nymph, I didn't have big hair (that was my sister's forte), but it was, um, cut a certain way...kinda long in back and shorter up front...um...yeah....now Bon Jovi, why, yes, he was a diety. Why do you ask? I thought everyone knew that! Even Beethoven in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure got that one right!

Pass the Reeses, indeed.
