| 2221 | Article | pikachulover | I loved the part about the belt buckle. I too had my concealed fashion statement under my graduation robe. A bra with sequined straps. The only reason I wanted it was because it was like the bras with the decorated straps like Gwen Stefani wore. They sold those at the mall. The tank top came with a matching bra. I remember there was a girl at my junior high that had a shirt that said "Berlin" on it as in Germany not the band. I asked if she went to Germany, but she said she bought the shirt at the local swap meet, and she only bought it because it had Looney Tunes characters on the shirt. | Apr 18, 2015 |  | |
| 2220 | Article | Vaporman87 | I had several shirts and hats I treasured. No pants though. LOL. One shirt I really loved was my Subway "Put A Foot In Your Mouth" shirt. It was just a plain white t-shirt with the Subway logo and the phrase I just mentioned emblazoned across the chest in red. I wore that shirt for decades (seriously, decades). Also, there was a Batman shirt that was black and had the Dark Knight standing in the shadows wearing his classic blue and grey garb. Finally, there was my Spuds McKenzie shirt in all it's bright pastel on white glory. I have a photo of me in that shirt from many years ago. It only recently was discarded, after the armpits became a crusty mass and it could no longer be comfortably worn. LOL | Treasured Clothing | Apr 18, 2015 | |
| 2224 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @Vaporman87 I have a soft spot for promotional t-shirts as well, but the comment that interests me most is the Spuds McKenzie shirt. I have always found it fascinating how lenient adults were back in the day letting kids wear shirts for products they were not old enough to consume. Like Spuds or the Budweiser frogs. Most specifically I remember a girl in my weight training class in high school who wore a shirt crammed with cartoon characters in "Inappropriate" positions, but because they were drawings, no teacher ever noticed. It was crazy. @pikachulover At least you didn't put that on display for all to see outside your robe. That would have been B-A-N-A-N-A-S. | Treasured Clothing | Apr 19, 2015 | |
| 2226 | Article | pikachulover | I couldn't have put it on the outside. The school was very strict about what you could wear. I would have been just a graduate in a sparkly strapped bra. | Treasured Clothing | Apr 22, 2015 | |
| 3267 | Article | egome2 | My most treasured shirt will be my nirvana live in utero shirt from 1992 | Treasured Clothing | Jan 10, 2016 | |
| 2217 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Pretty awesome recollection of that brief moment in time. I wasn't allowed to drink caffeinated sodas, but the look of the Pepsi can prior to this re-design was such an iconic symbol of my childhood. I even invested in Pepsi Co. During my 6th grade stock market investment project. Way to dig up an not often discussed, but awesome topic. Well written too. | The Pepsi Gotta Have It Card | Apr 14, 2015 | |
| 2218 | Article | Vaporman87 | Speaking of "plastic", I can recall purchasing wallets and pretending that the "cards" that came with it were actually valid and I would purchase myself several toys (that I just happened to already own). Ahhh, youth. Those charges were ones I never had to repay. If only it were that way with the cards I have now. LOL | The Pepsi Gotta Have It Card | Apr 14, 2015 | |
| 2222 | Article | massreality | Thanks Hojo. I'm glad you enjoyed it. And Vapor, man I feel ya on the real credit cards. Sheesh! | The Pepsi Gotta Have It Card | Apr 18, 2015 | |
| 2223 | Article | SegaFanatic | Great article, and I dunno man, that Doo-Wop-Asaurus always gives me goosebumps for some reason, and that strange emotion makes that one my favorite. Was still glad it was in the article at least! | TDitH's Top 5 Nickelodeon Bumpers | Apr 18, 2015 | |
| 2225 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Another vote for Doo-Wop-A-Saurus! The interstitial segments were definitely what gave Nick its identity, much like the different Saturday Morning Cartoon segments the different networks had. But Nickelodeon always had that extra, artistic edge to them. My go to is always the "Nick-Nick-Nick-Nick-Nick-Nick-Nick-Nickelodeoooooooon". | TDitH's Top 5 Nickelodeon Bumpers | Apr 19, 2015 | |
