Retro fun

[Rantsylvania 6-5000]

I'm a retro freak, and thought it seemed like a good idea for a game.

How it works: First person asks if you remember a certain item that they remember from their childhood, usually something that isn't around anymore. It can be a toy, food, t.v. show, clothing style, etc. The next person says whether or not they remember it, and maybe add a brief comment about it. Then that person asks about their own retro item, and so on.

Example:

1st person: Do you remember My Little Ponies?

Next person: Yes, I had a bunch of those things. I gave them to my daughter.
Do you remember Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific?

Next person: No, that must have been before my time...etc.

I'll start.

Do you remember harvest gold, avocado green, and coppertone kitchen appliances?

[Nurian]

Answer: No, not really. I wasn't old enough, maybe.

Question: Remember Lite-Brights?

[Magpie]

OMG yes, those were the best toy ever, I want one now!

Unfortunately I think I'm too young for the other half of this...

While I loved Thundar and I remember the Banana Splits (they came on opposite of The Jackson Five cartoon, so I didn't watch it much), I do not remember Maya the Bee.
