I just found this group on facebook (I'm sure some of you have heard of it, well, here it is). I like to bold the things that made me say "Whoa...time flu by..." Although just about 99% of these I remember, sorry if this was posted before, BUT OH WELL.

When Christmas was the most exciting time of year.
When $5 seemed like a million, & another dollar a miracle.
When you begged to go to McDonalds for dinner everyday.
When Toys R Us overuled the mall.
Go back to the time when:
Decisions were made by going 'eeny-meeny-miney-moe'.
Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming 'do over!'
'Race issue' ment arguing about who ran the fastest.
Money issues were handled by whoever was banker in 'Monopoly.'
It wasn't odd to have two or three 'best' friends.
Being old referred to anyone over 20.
A chance to skate as a couple at the local roller rink was like winning the lottery.
Scrapes & bruises were kissed & made better.
It was a big deal to finally be tall enought to ride the 'big people' rides at the fair.
When playing Nintendo was the hardest thing ever.
When Ninja Turtles ruled the world.
Another Baby Sitter Club and Little Sister (Karen) book came out and you put your name on hold for it at the library.
When Aladdin was new, before the trilogy was complete.
Before we realized all this would eventually disappear
Who would have thought you'd miss the 90's so much!!!!!

You know what I hate? When Facebook groups with misspellings in their name get large? For example, this one has 'If you remeber this...'. Oh, and it's freakin' "Rocko's Modern Life".
Wow...so now I know my answer for Turd's reason thread.

Being 22, this stuff makes ME feel old.

Seriously though, if anybody could arrange to have a shirt with this printed, I would totally be interested. ...seriously....

One of my best friends' mom designs and prints t-shirts for a living. If you guys want, tell me how many you want and what size and I can get it made for you.
And do you want that logo in the middle of a white t-shirt or on a blue t-shirt or what?

Hence the 20 bolded items or so of all TV shows. Nickelodeon owned so much back then. Wasn't marbles pretty big too? Or was it just a regional thing? I remember people bringing 8-balls to school and claiming it as a steelie. Recess (the actually activity...and the show) rocked so much.

god i loved that show.
Anyone remember Roundhouse from SNICK?
My parents said I couldn't watch it after an episode where they had plastic butts on their asses and were being obnoxious. I thought it was the greatest thing in the world, they thought it was sensor worthy.

Man...I'm gonna be youtubing all the old skits from that show now, one of my favorite parts was the little mirror dancing scenes where it looked like 20 of one guy was dancing. That was cool.
I remember the power rangers was pretty controversial (sp?) at the time, people said it was too violent and it would create violence. Well...I LOVED IT when they hit the putty's and sparks came flying out of them, that was sweet!

Does she have like a business or does iron-on's from home ? I'd like them to be high quality shirts. But I think the blue background, white logo's look great.
If you can find out, and how much they would be that'd be great. Looks like we have about 5 interested so far.
Maybe even a small FCP stamp on the sleeve....YES...I RULE !!!...........NOT !!! (sw?)

I remember SNick before SNick was a show. It was just the Saturday night Nickelodeon lineup. All I remember about it was that it started with Hey Dude and ended with Are You Afraid of the Dark?. I'm pretty sure that is where a lot of the Nicktoons debuted.
