Still can. Full House is on for three full hours where I'm at.

You have seen at least 10 episodes of Fraggle Rock.

The cartoon or the puppet show?

I would have liked to crush them in a compactor if that's what you mean.

You know what "Sike" means.

Rob's the man! Sike!

You've heard of Garbage Pail Kids.

I still own some of the stickers that came with cards!

Sam was the man!

Y-Y-Yes I do!

Poltergeist freaked you out.

That scene with the worms still does.

Mine was Master of the Universe.

Almost got it down.
