1. The absolute joy you got watching Muppet Babies (even if it was just a rerun):
2. And the pure bliss and excitement you got at just hearing the theme song for it:

3. Yet always wondering what the hell Nanny looked like:
4. That nobody could convince you that Kenner's Family Tree House wasn't part of the Fisher-Price's Little People collection. And just how much fun you had playing with it:
6. Having these McDonald's glasses...
...and Burger King Return of the Jedi glasses as your go-to juice or milk glass — even as the paint on them faded:
8. Wanting a waterbed because they were the coolest thing ever. Also, they were the funnest things to jump on:
9. The huge confusion over there being two cartoons called Ghostbusters — it just did not make sense in your mind:
But, of course, knowing The Real Ghostbusters was the superior one 'cause it was the one based on the movie. Plus, it even had the theme song for the intro:

10. Walking to the Ghostbusters' theme song and Michael Jackson's "Thriller" during your elementary school's Halloween parade:
11. That just looking at the cover of a Mead Académie Sketch Pad inspired you to want to draw:

14. That 75% of the fun of playing with Colorforms was sniffing them:

16. And how traumatized you were from the scene where Artax died in Swamp of Sadness in The NeverEnding Story:

19. Loving your Popple, but always having an absolute struggle it was to get it back into its ball shape:
20. That every kid owned these rainbow flip-flops — that were also super painful, since the nylon on the straps would rub against your toes:
21. And that everyone either owned or knew someone that owned a Rainbow Brite doll that ended up covered in crayon marks and with the yarn hair all undone:
23. Wanting a Clapper because it felt so futuristic...
...and because of the commercial for it:

25. Collecting shiny Sandylion stickers that you'd get from a craft store or stationery shop:
And of course, displaying your collection in sticker books:
26. How gross the stickers you had to lick tasted in Sticker Fun books. Also, how they dried all wrinkly and never stuck right in the book:
28. Getting hungry every time you watched a Time for Timer PSA:

29. How you thought the car couch from My Two Dads was the coolest thing you ever saw and you wanted one badly:

32. Being scared of burning yourself whenever you played on a metal jungle gyms on hot days:
34. The absolute disappointment you felt anytime you made shaved ice with the Snoopy Sno Cone Maker and only ended up with a slushy mess:
35. And lastly, not being able to fight the urge to yell out, "I learned it by watching you!" whenever the "Like Father, Like Son" anti-drug PSA came on:
