3937	Article	Hoju Koolander	"I learned it from watching you" and the McGruff Don't Use Drugs song were my go to PSA messages. In my Summer School Health class around 1998 we watched a tape full of the Snake Drug Dealer style messages featuring everyone from Pee-Wee Herman to Gene Simmons of KISS and we were just cracking up the whole time. I recently uploaded a bunch of PSA commercials from my personal VHS collection here if anybody wants a laugh 1980s Public Service Announcements: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLG99Q5yS9Q6ymQSCBDhdqe1H0BPBWZrLr		Jun 09, 2017
3936	Article	Hoju Koolander	@OldSchool80s I actually owned a New Kids On The Block doll that had a similar cassette gimmick, though it just featured an interview with the group from what I recall. @Vaporman87 When I worked at Disneyland as a costumed character I actually met M.C. Hammer while dressed as Kronk. He was still rocking a Walkman and it was 2001! @jkatz Yeah, Joe Camel was the least of our concerns. All of our Hollywood heroes from Ghostbusters to Arnold were lighting one up back in the day.	Antique Store Finds: Reborn	Jun 09, 2017

3934	Article	jkatz	I remember my family had a Joe Camel bath towel when I was really young. No idea where it came from or what happened to it, but given that I was regularly in contact with it for a period of time and never got addicted to smoking, I think all that hysteria was largely unfounded. reaches for e-cigarette	Antique Store Finds: Reborn	Jun 08, 2017
3933	Article	jkatz	Disagree about Comix Zone. Sure, it's not a complex or deep game, but it still holds up pretty well all these years later...Sketch Turner's design aside. I never heard of Combo Man before, but when I was 9 or 10 I had the same exact idea-combine a bunch of superhero costume pieces into a new, "original" character. Goes to show you the level of creativity those 90s ad execs had. I probably don't need to tell you this, being a comics fan and all, but there was a lot of great series in the 90s too! I'd be interested in seeing your opinion on those as a follow up.	My Five Favorite Super Losers of the 90's	Jun 08, 2017
3932	Article	Vaporman87	This is an amazing list for certain... but I still can't get over seeing Prince sitting on a toilet. That's legendary.	Top number 2 Songs from the 80s that never made it to number 1	Jun 08, 2017
3931	Article	Vaporman87	Ha! Laughable, these. You have to love Adam X. Seriously. Nothing screams "EXTREME!!!" more so than that guy. He makes every other "EXTREME!!!" style character look like Dick Tracy.	My Five Favorite Super Losers of the 90's	Jun 08, 2017
3930	Article	Vaporman87	Man. Still can't believe we actually lived in a time when M.C. Hammer was not only famous, but actually spawned figures and a cartoon. If not any other time, surely that time would have been the right one for complete reality implosion.	Antique Store Finds: Reborn	Jun 08, 2017
3929	Article	OldSchool80s	Love, love, love The Breakfast Club. I enjoyed reading your perspective and agree with the majority. Thanks for sharing!	The Breakfast Club and Changing Perceptions	Jun 08, 2017
3928	Article	OldSchool80s	Love that the MC Hammer doll includes a "Real Cassette" inside! Fun finds. I rarely purchase anything when I go, but it definitely is entertaining from a nostalgia perspective.	Antique Store Finds: Reborn	Jun 08, 2017
