80's revisited
I have an ever so hip and cool friend
(*cough* Katherine *cough*) who recently was talking about some 80's fashion suicides. Reading her comments and what people remembered from this era was like a blast down memory lane. It got me thinking and I reminded me of something I had found on a site a bit ago (Tequila Girl's). Anyways. It's funny to read.

You know you are a product of the 80's if..........1. You've ever ended a sentence with the word "SIKE."
LMAO, I don't *think* I did, but I so totally remember other people doing it.
2. You can sing the rap to the "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" and can do the "Carlton."
*snort* Remember the song, know most the words but uh, no "Carlton".3. Girls wore biker shorts under their skirts and felt stylishly sexy.
Biker shorts… sexy! Uh huh.... And how about boxers or leggings under ripped jeans????4. Two words: Hammer Pants.
