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:
5. Being excited whenever you'd put one of these capsules in water — and also how gross they smelled (like a funky sponge):
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:
14.That 75% of the fun of playing with Colorforms was sniffing them:
15.How traumatized you were by that episode of Punky Brewster where Cherie almost died after being locked in the abandoned fridge:
16.And how traumatized you were from the scene where Artax died in Swamp of Sadness in The NeverEnding Story:
17.How the illustrations from Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark were actually more frighting than the stories. Okay, yes the stories were very creepy too, FTR:
18. Having a collection Disney Read-Along Storybook and cassette books, which you'd sometimes play just for the songs they included in them:
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:
22. Being very tempted to eat Crest Sparkle because it tasted like minty candy. Oh so, so sweet:
32.Being scared of burning yourself whenever you played on a metal jungle gyms on hot days:
33. Playing with those sliding puzzles and eventually getting frustrated with it and just pulling out all the pieces and putting them back together correctly:
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:
