Remember when..

- Only rich people had credit cards

- You had to dial the numbers on a phone

- Ebay was just a site for trading collectibles like star wars stuff

- Cars didn't have third brake lights

- There were no microwave ovens so you had to cook everything on the stove

Remember when you cleaned your room because you had to not because you'd get an allowance for it (goes for chores too)

Remember when...
- You had to get up to turn the channel on the tv set?
- You had only 10 channels on tv to choose from?
- The only way to make pop corn was to heat up oil in a pot with a lid on the stove & keep shaking it?
- When there was no star 60 or caller ID & if you missed a call,people had to actually call you back?

Kangaroos shoes were a short lived thing back in the day. They were tennis shoes with little zipper pockets on them.

*Pay phones existed. And were used.
*Land line phones existed. And were used.
*You rocked along... to your favorite cassette tapes.

Remember when...

*You popped your collars.
*Scrunched your socks.
*Wore leggings tucked into your shoes covered by 4 pairs of varying colored socks... All scrunched... Finished off with a fluorescent shirt... with the collar popped.
*You never worried about a receding hairline... because it was smothered in mall bangs...
*Aqua Net was your most important fashion accessory!

Yeah, we all knew THAT trend would never last.

I mean, c'mon, everyone knows (most) kangaroos don't have zippers. (That one's for TinTin.) :D
