I was born in 1986 and I can tell you anything you wanna know. lol. I LOVED the 80's. I'm a die hard nintendo fan lol! Just cause you born in the late 80s doesn't mean you can't remember things. I think my FAVORITE things of all time... (and what my next tattoos will be) are/were THE CAREBEARS and RAINBOW BRITE. David Bowie in The Labyrinth was also insanely hot. And did I mention I ADORE that movie?

Actually, I have to say, it does not remind me of Coneheads!

But it does remind me of a talent show I did in elementary school and won 2nd place!!!

And, what a crazy step-mom I am, I have the only 8 yr old that knows all the 80's music cause I listen to it so much. I've even heard her say to her friends once: "you know that song Brick House, by the Commodores?" The kids are all like nooooo.

My poor little Jazzy, then she tries to sing it for them...

they still don't know!
