| 3532 | Article | DirtyD79 | I loved the General Lee when I was a kid. It's one of my favorite TV show cars. I don't think I really paid much attention to the plot of the show, I just thought it was so cool watching the car jumping over stuff and all the chases. Some guy down the street from us had one and I always liked to walk down just to look at it. I also think it's pretty cool how during Mopar Days at Carlisle, PA they have a whole row of General Lee Chargers along with a row of the 1970s Dodge Monaco and Plymouth Gran Fury cop cars like in the show. Granted I would grow up to be more of a Ford guy but I still can't forget just how much I loved that car as a kid. | Apr 30, 2016 |  | |
| 3533 | Article | DirtyD79 | @Hoju Koolander My father's an auto body technician so I probably got the idea from watching him working on cars. I also remember we had this plastic set of toy tools and me and my bro liked to use the saw on this one old wooden table because it made some neat sounds like "oi oo oi oo" Maybe it's not so much I was RPing as my own dad as much as me and my bro were some really destructive little brats as kids lol. | Bunk Beds | Apr 30, 2016 | |
| 3534 | Article | DirtyD79 | I still remember my skateboard from when I was a kid. It was a skinny yellow one. I really wanted one of the Vision Street Wear ones I saw at this one roller skating rink but that was not in the cards. Naturally being an 80s kid I never wore a helmet or pads same with riding bikes. Nobody in my neighborhood did. It's a miracle any of us made it to be adults. lol | Skate or Die | Apr 30, 2016 | |
| 3535 | Article | DirtyD79 | I remember Children's Palace from my childhood although I only remember being in 2 of them around Pittsburgh. They were expensive so we hardly ever shopped there. I remember when they shut down sometime in the mid 90s. One became became an American Eagle outlet store while the other became a Dodge dealership. I just thought the stores were so neat because of the whole castle theme they had. | Children's Palace Was Real | Apr 30, 2016 | |
| 3550 | Article | DirtyD79 | When I was a little kid I used to walk past this one church on my way home from school. The thing that scared was there was this giant art deco style copper Jesus on the side of the building. The Jesus statue or whatever was copper at one time but had turned green due to years of oxidation. Because of it's weird shape and green coloring people in the neighborhood would call it "The Grasshopper." I was always afraid it would fall off the wall and crush me on the sidewalk below. While I eventually got over my fear, the only things I've ever really been to that church for are either weddings or funeral services. Mostly because we don't live in that neighborhood anymore. I know most people would think it's weird how anybody could be scared of Jesus but most people don't have the extremely overactive imagination I had as a kid and still do to this day. | Childhood Fears | Dec 11, 2016 | |
| 3640 | Article | DirtyD79 | lol I like the line about the dude doing Shakespeare in the park is actually livin' in it. I googled Shakespeare in The Park to find out if that's real and was surprised to find out it totally is. | Toy Talk with Miss M- Reunion Special | Dec 30, 2016 | |
| 3719 | Article | DirtyD79 | Pizza Hut's always been one of my favorite restaurants to eat at. I remember back int he 80s One of the promotional things they had was a pitcher with the Pizza Hut logo on it that you could buy with your order. We ended up getting one and had it for several years. They were white with a red lid and had the pizza hut logo on the side. We'd use it for Kool-Aid and iced tea until one day it just got too grungy and wouldn't come clean anymore. | Pizza Hut Promotions | Feb 01, 2017 | |
| 4048 | Article | DirtyD79 | I loved the arcade game when I was a kid because of the whole turning into a wolf thing. The Sega Genesis we got was the one that came with Sonic the hedgehog but I got a copy of Altered Beast later. It's such a sin Project Altered Beast never made it to the US because it looks like it would have been pretty cool to play. | Altered Beast | Aug 18, 2017 | |
| 4049 | Article | DirtyD79 | When I was a teenager I remember me and my brother got kicked out of a toys r us for riding bikes around the store and playing football in one of the aisles. Needless to say we got kicked out. Ironically several years later my brother would end up working at the toys r us we got kicked out of. As for KB what I liked about them was they were a decent place to get models and stuff like paint and glue for them. Toys R Us was decent too but they were kind of out of the way compared to the KB I normally went to. | Toy Store Dreams | Aug 18, 2017 | |
| 4140 | Article | DirtyD79 | I was in college back then. I was asleep when it happened since it was my day off. My mom woke me up telling me I should come out and check out the news. That's how I found out about it. | Where Were You That September Day? | Sep 21, 2017 | |
