WTF Was I Thinking Thread

[Non Compos Mentis]

What trends did you follow as a kid? Being a child of the '80s, I followed a lot of stupid fads, clothing styles, and crappy pop music.

First off: I remember getting those shirts that when you touched them they would turn colors or something like that. What a waste of money.:p

I remember Pogo Ball. That was a BIG waste of money too.

Groove Tube.

There were a lot of other toys and gadgets, but I can't think of them now.

Clothing:

I remember basically wearing clothes that other kids were wearing. I was such a follower. I had a pair of ADIDAS, and basically tried to dress like a rapper in the late '80s.:D

Music:

I feel like shooting myself for admiting this, but I liked Milli Vanilli, Linear, New Kids, George Micheal, Janet Jackson, Paula Abdul, and a slew of other pop nonsense. :sick:

Well I was a srange kid and a loner kid back in the early 90s. When I went to highschool it seemed everyone wanted to be like me back in the 90s so I just kept myself the same way. But I was into a lot of rap and r&b back then. I listen to some pop as well. But I always liked rock. I think I hated what I wore cause I looked like a nerd on steriods or something like that. Not going into that. By the time highschool came around I was semi popular because everyone seem to think it was cool to be strange. *sighs* I actually hated it because it brought to much attention to me and I was nominated for every god damn award in highschool possible. Anyway I guess the biggest thing was I listen to TLC and Busta Rymes (sp?)... Don't ask but I also listen to Green Day and 80s music as well. I kind of stuck to my 80s music and left the others behind.
