Reply #33: Yep, I can relate to a bunch of this (born in '80) [View All]

Watching TGIF (Family Matters, Boy Meets World and Step by Step, anyway. Who'dathunk Bobby Ewing would go from tragic hero on "Dallas" to being a bland sitcom dad?)

Cartoons (Ninja Turtles were my favorite)

Oregon Trail and Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? (which I played on my Apple IIc.) Who can still sing the Carmen theme song?

Every one in my school practically worshipped Michael Jordan (#23!)

We'd into fights over whether Super Nintendo or Sega Genesis was better (stupid thing to fight over, but Super Nintendo! ;) )

Sunday nights, I'd watch America's Funniest Home Videos followed by America's Funniest People, then the Simpsons, and Married with Children (I don't know how I got away with watching that show).

Voted for the Big Dog in our school's 1992 mock election (and Perot won the school :wtf: ).

I still have a weird taste in music (70s/80s rock and pop, mostly).
