When I was in the states, I had the opportunity to attend a 3 year olds birthday party. You can imagine my shock when I discovered that Care Bears and My Little Pony had made a comeback in a big way. I mean I know that we had cool toys when we were kids in the 80s, but do the toy manufacturers not have any better ideas? Got me thinking of some of the things they should bring back from the old skool.

The Purple Pieman, Sour Grapes and her snake Dregs from Strawberry Shortcake
Ram Man and She Ra from He Man
Mork and Mindy
Green Acres (how fab was Eva Gabor and Arnold?)
Light as a feather, stiff as a board (didn’t you ever do this?)
Kangaroos
Keds with no socks and no shoelaces
Esprit canvas bags in pastel colors
Where’s the Beef ad campaign
Pee Wee Herman

The phrases or words that I’d like to hear …
Going around – as in “Will you go around with me?”
Moted
Face
Barf – no one says this anymore. They all say vomit or threw up…come on!
Stoked
Gnarly
Tubular
Grody
Word up
Totally
To the max
Poser
