      I have a curious question. Back in the day, did you EVER hear anyone refer to the game as "Mario Bros" or "Super Mario Bros"? I NEVER heard that (17 yrs old when NES came out). I always heard "Brothers". I hear Bros. all the time now when people reference them. It just sounds so odd. lol

    The kids have really fun personalities here, so cute. Them know stuff from 4 or 5 decades before they were even born!
    As a kid in the 80's, I wouldn't have been able to name a bunch of stuff from the 30's and 40's,
    besides Laurel & Hardy.
    I'm generally impressed by kids and young adults today who can grow up in the crazy world we've created for them and be reasonably well adjusted. Thanks for giving them a supportive platform.

    According to the actual song “Valley Girl”, the term is “barf me out”. And it didn’t mean to freak out. It was something you said when you were grossed out. In the song it was followed by “gag me with a spoon”, which was similar.

    The super baggy MC Hammer pants are NOT parachute pants. Those are called Haram pants.
    Parachute pants were made from a slick, parachute-like material...thus the name. They were not super baggy and had a pretty regular fit.

    The 80s Cabbage Patch Kids had yarn for hair.
    I had a Teddy Ruxpin, and my sister was so jealous that she didn't have one (she was super spoiled and always got what she wanted, but the one time I got something I wanted she absolutely flipped!), that she broke the top of Teddy's nose off. I beat the breaks off her. Oh the 80s! lol!

    Jane Fonda was her own exercise thing that was totally different from Jazzercise. An actual Jazzercise video from the 80s was insane because of the lady who was in all of them. It was also somewhat similar on a basic level to Beyoncé’s Single Ladies video

    Maybe you should have consulted with someone who actually knows about the 80s. Parachute pants were popular with break dancers but they were popular for a very short time around 84-85. You did not show parachute pants. Parachute pants are made of parachute material and are rather form fitting with zippers all over. What you showed were Hammer pants or Harem pants which were barely popular in the 80s. More like 89-90. Two different eras and totally different vibe. I don't know why so many people get this wrong.

      It's probably partially to do with this show and discovering things from it they otherwise wouldn't.
      In the early 90's I discovered Elvis and spent 10 years listening to 50's and 60's music, I really missed out on the 90's because of it, and spent the next 20 making up for it off and on.
