4. makes me realize just how fucking cool you are. I have never been to a rave. I want to believe that its geographic and not my own actual lameness. The closest I ever was to a rave was being a regular at a very strange bar called the mission on pope park highway. I once met the man who designed all of Kiss' platform boots. He was wearing a pair of them and a diaper. I want to go purell myself even thinking about it. I'm just not that girl anymore.
Am I in the running for longest, blabberiest comment ever. And if so, what do I win?
i'm totally with you on color me badd (hmm...is mark calderon still hot? were i not so lazy, i'd google and see....) and the scarecrow and mrs. king.
i may steal this for a future post- hope you don't mind.
babyj,partying with the guy who created those hightops for kiss is a lot better than any rave!
you win a "hands across america" tee shirt...
duff, consider yourself tagged...and when i am not so lazy myself i am gonna google CMB and download i wanna sex u up...
PAtsy! How could you! dissing those lovely gentlemen...they were the inspiration behind boys 2 men!
color me bad made me laugh out loud! i loved the sk8er hairdos too. they were really cool. especially if they bleached a part of it.
ok, wait a minute, it's not IN to roll your pants up at the cuff anymore? boy do i feel like a goof.
you crack me up...the best cuff was when you had to wrap it first around your leg then cuff it...i used saftey pins....that was when it was grounds for death to have bell bottoms...good ol 1987-88!
yummy...bleached hair on sk8er boys...even better if they were wearing a Vision Streetwear shirt and Airwalks...
i own a pair of airwalks right now. just clinging to my youth i guess.
I got written up twice from my McDonald's job for doing the fold and roll!! HAHAHA!! Those uniforms back then were pure polyester hell....the least they could have done was allowed the roll! They made us wear VISORS and PINS on opur fake bowties!!!!I used to fake a nose bleed if anyone from school came in!!
i'm working on my list right now
Sweet! McDonalds! Did you work there when the uniform was a rust colored button up smock-thingy?
written up for fixing your cuffs...that is fricking hysterical!!!!!!
i got sent home for wearing black nailpolish at my job at furr's cafeteria when i was 16......still, in my 30s, i cannot compromise my alternative side...
i quit a week later and went to work at orange julius...and it was khaki hell...and a visor..and hotdog steamburns...then i went to work at Burger King...and made it to shift leader at Arby's by 17...damn. i was successful...
you fast food slut you...
then after the 3 write ups they made a rule that you had to have your parents call in sick for you and you had to be at home when they called to check and see if it was true. all this because of me. the chronic lying fake sicker. so i quit...stuck to babysitting. babysitting was way more fun. you got to just stick a movie on for the kids and talk on the phone and eat their food
nice...they named a whole paragraph in the employee's manual about you...
Playing hooky wasn't named after you, was it?
don't get me started on highschool.
i think there is a plaque dedicated to me on the hall bench where i spent the majority of my time. it's so weird that i didn't graduate....but i was well liked, or else people were afraid not to like me because i would make fun of them. plus i failed grade 10, so that made me extra cool somehow.not much has changed....that's why i skipped the reunion too. although, i heard i was missed, so that's cool. they did a boat cruise thing, i thought about going, but changed my mind because you can't exactly leave a boat cruise.
nice...i like you even more now...you are in my crowd....i got 6 people and myself booted out of french class freshman year...
total bart simpson...
don't blame u for not going on the cruise...plus u would miss renting a jag and driving up to the front door like you could if it was at a hotel...
sweet! my highschool stories are very funny to me, not so funny to my teachers. some of them made me just get my work and go straight to the library each class. which i translated to mean my bench...i loved highschool. i just hated class...
for the reunion i was going to go on my bike which i thought would have been really cool...if it had been anything other than a boat cruise i would have gone. i'm just not a strong swimmer
lol at tight rolling as it was called in my high school for number 9. Friendship Pins were cool, so much easier to make than the stupid bracelets.
lol @ Color Me Badd
I loved cuffing my pants. But since it is no longer fashionable, I just cuff my underwear and grin at myself all day long.
what about the tight roll, don't say you didn't do it!
OK, I must be getting old. I have no idea what any of those things are except raves. I wish they'd bring those back! You just can't find goods drugs anymore.
My 10 things:
1. LSD
2. Good X
3. Skunk weed (KGB)
4. Speed Racer
5. Longhairs
6. Speed
7. Speed metal
8. The Roman Orgy
9. Swords (and swordfighting)
10.Honor
Yes. I'm a freak. I know.
We used to call it "pegging" your jeans and of course mine were already too damn taperd to do it! How can I be cool if I can't make my pantlegs so tight that my feet turn blue???!!! Aaaaahhhhh growing up in the 80's was SO cruel!!!
I agree with design goddess. The 80's were cruel! Big hair, gawdy jewelry, tight rolled acid wash jeans, and teal mascara. Somehow I made it out alive. LOL
Alright.... I have another confession. As if Milli Vanilli being my first concert wasn't enough.... I also saw Color Me Badd in concert w/ Paula Abdul. Oh yeah baby!
I know you want to sex me up now.
dork, I totally tagged you to do this like 3 weeks ago and you ignored me.
I'm OK.
I still liked your answers.
