Love the list; here's some of my thoughts:
• French rolls were very late eighties, practically early nineties; they went so well with WigWams and black Adidas(let's see who's a real eighties kid!).
• I still wonder what's up with Smurfette, I think she might have been a little "loose."
• Not only did I own the first three original series of "The Garbage Pail Kids" cards and see the cartoon, BUT I also own a boot leg copy of the movie!
• I still have the "Electric Youth" album on cassette and CD.
• I knew who Tony Hawk was long before "Gleaming the Cube."
• I made my fat friends do the "Truffle Shuffle" to gain entry into my home.
• I was a huge Corey Feldman fan when he:

Didn't do drugs.​

Still had a relationship with his parents.​

Thought Michael Jackson was an okay guy.​

He even inspired me to buy a black "Purple Rain" t-shirt.

AND: I watched new episodes of the Muppet Show every Monday night.

 

[Whatever]

My sister still thinks Dirty Dancing is a REAL good movie.

What exactly are the Garbage Pail Kids?

Also Spandex pants...I prefer the term leggings thank you very much and the look very nice with push up socks and ankle high boots.

Also the crimper went well into the mid-1990s.

That's pretty good.

By the way, here's the original "Children of the 80s" article that led to all the lists:

What exactly are the Garbage Pail Kids?

The Garbage Pail Kids were the coolest thing ever....if you were seven years old and read MAD magazine on a regular basis.

Basically, they were trading cards featuring "gross" comic characters with names like "Potty Scotty" and "Luke Puke". I recall they were pretty scandalous at my elementary school.
