Remember When You Were Young And...

I can't be the only one

OMG kirby!! I loved that. when i was 9 my parents bought me a NES and I was playing Kirby's Adventure all day long. The game was newly released back then <.<; gdi I'm old

How can no one have mentioned these yet.

That monkey's like "Uhh, go away, Rebecca. Daddy's just...fixing mommy's back!"

Ummm...First off, last I saw this thread was titled "Remember when you were YOUNG..." and not "Remember when you were young in the <insert specific time period here>..." Secondly I said that was the first movie I saw IN THEATERS, not the first movie I saw, ever.

I was born in '89, I am 20, so unless you are about 80 years old then most of the things I mention should be recognizable. Besides, about half, if not more, of the things mentioned here are from my "generation" and no one else here is being point out as "too young..."

Anyways, what about:


and also the remote-controlled cars (too lazy to find a picture), I used to strap my action figures to them and wreck them, make them jump little ramps I made, or drove them off the stairs. :0

I still have this book on my shelf back home. =) Granted... I think I stole it from my school? But I have it!

I've been trying to remember the title of a childrens story.

There are turkey bandits, lots of pennies, and a subway involved

I definitely used to play this game over and over with my brother when I was like 7 lol. >_> We never got any of the crystals because we couldn't get in the first dungeon.
