1.Dreaming one day of having a tree house just like Punky's on Punky Brewster:
2.Owning a bunch of Smurf PVC figures that you had no idea where they came from (but that you absolutely loved):
3.And owning a bunch of Fisher-Price Little People that you had no idea where they came from (but that you absolutely loved):
4.Having the Fisher-Price Little People Family Playhouse be both for your Little People and other PVC figures, like the Smurfs — since in your head, they all lived in the same universe:

10.Playing your favorite tapes on this exact player:
11.Owning a bunch of Care Bear books — which always felt a little preachy, but were cute:
12.Knowing you were going to get an Icee if you went to Target or K-Mart with your parents:

21.Never really playing Pictionary like you were supposed to and basically just doodling on the pads:
22.Thinking you were a FASHION DESIGNER 'cause of Fashion Plates:
23.Watching Dynasty with your mom or grandma and having no idea what was going on, but being invested in the over-the-top drama — as well as having to close your eyes during the sex scenes:

25.Playing with your Sea Wees during bath time — which were friends with My Little Pony ponies, your other bath time toys:
26.Wanting a Ben Cooper character Halloween costume and regretting it when you went trick-or-treating 'cause the mask would barely let you see and breathe:
