Someone says ".....was really bad"
and you think to yourself, "Did he mean bad bad or good bad?

People were saying "bad" a decade before the '80's.

I was saying "bad" in the womb.

You know your a Child of the 80s, when you can sing the theme to "Pinwheel" along with your other drinking buddies.

You're a child of the '80's when, after realizing the Vietnamese hooker is finally dead, you sit in the chair naked, and say to no one in particular, "Damn, I really am a Child of the '80's."

Then the gun barrel goes in your mouth.

More than you can imagine.

Actually, I knew I was a child of the '80's when all of these new "Transformers" shows came out. I watched the first episode of them, said, "Boy, these suck compared to the original series," and never watched them again.

It's true what they say: lightning never strikes twice.

You know you're a child of the 80's when...

-Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas (1977) was something you were excited about seeing again.

-You were an avid watcher of Hill Street Blues and the Cosby Show.

-You loved Duran Duran and were a 'Durannie', peppering your walls with their posters and having masturbatory fantasies involving Roger Taylor (the drummer). That goes the same for Siouxsie Sioux, Nina Hagen, and some of the members of Depeche Mode.

-You remember the show 'Square Pegs'..and loathed it.

-You caught the movie 'Gregory's Girl' and thought it was pretty cool.

...when you actually went to a roller rink. With roller skates. For your birthday.

...when you remember "Stranger Danger."

You sing the Spiderman theme song to your kid...only it's not the one from the '60s cartoon, but the one from his live-action segment on "The Electric Company."

Spiderman! Where are you coming from Spiderman? Nobody knows who you are!!

Maybe that makes me a child of the 70s...

I kind of straddle that line.

...you remember when white guys used to break dance.

...people know what you were talking about when you say that that one puppet on Mr. Roger's Neighborhood looked like Rod Stuart.

...you had to discuss watching The Day After in school the next day.

. . .you got up religiously to watch Captain N at 8am on Saturdays.

. . .you try the "Konami Code" on every video game you play to this day.

. . .you remember that the non-video shows on MTV used to be good.

. . .you remember when Sugar Bear could eat a handful of cereal, roll up his sleeve, and proceed to whoop the ass of any animal that crossed his path.

…you watched Kid Video for the videos, not the cartoons.

…You watched Fernwood Tonight only on Fridays, because that was the only late night you could stay up that it was on.

…because you remember feeling scared about a deadly cloud of radiation when Chernobyll went up.
