When music had lyrics that you could understand!

Speaking of orange shoe strings - remember the shoestrings with printing on them? Mine had dogs on them and said "I (heart) my dog" or something like that.

I sit here browsing this thread and I look down and to my right and what do I behold but my Atari 2600 ...

pitfall ... jungle hunt ... demons to diamonds ... river raid ... aah the times when my interest was captured by those simple 2-d games.

oh ... and i had jelly shoes too. they were TERRIBLE on the beach. sweaty rubber and sand do NOT mix no matter what the commercials say.

I had a doll called "Bye Bye Diapers", which came with a potty chair and a bottle to fill with water. The doll had sleepers, with a little flap that could be unfastened for her to "go number one" in the little toilet. You fed the doll water from the bottle. Then you put the doll on the little potty, pull the string in the back, and the doll would make a clapping motion while doing her business.

I remember these clothes called Garanimals. You matched them ny what animal was on the tag. And who ever did that was just not always kind. I was sent to school in some groovy clothes.

Having old school video games like Pac-man, Burger Time, or Donkey Kong?

The 'original' legend of Zelda had a stick figure Link and his sword was an upsidedown arrow.

Pac-Man!

Yes -- those were the days when video games were actually GOOD!

Oh, and remember Tetris?

 

[Daisysqueaks]

Tetris was the first game I couldn't put down!! I would literally play for hours!

 

[imawebmonkey]

I use to play Tetris and Super Mario Bros. for hours. I also played all the old Atari games. Pac-man and River Raid were my favorites.

Does anyone remember "Sea-Wees"? They were mermaid dolls made for playing with in the bathtub.

 

[JPPT1974]

Oh yeah I remember Seaweeds indeed
Very cute!
