| 3547 | Article | SockofFleagulls | I love that you included Thunder Hawk. I could easily make this list all M.A.S.K. vehicles. However, the Coyote X from Hardcastle and McCormick is an awesome TV car that's obscure enough to get overlooked often. Others in consideration should be Colt Seaver's 4x4 from Fall Guy and Magnum P.I.'s Ferrari. Animated, how about that transforming convertible from Heathcliff and the Catillac Cats or Filmation Ghostbusters car? | Dec 08, 2016 |  | |
| 3292 | Article | Vaporman87 | I knew that I enjoyed the song, but don't recall much about the video, despite the fact that I was a huge music video watcher when this video first came out (on both MTV and Friday Night Videos). I love that you have brought this to our attention. It gives us another glimpse at what we thought life might be like in "the future" back in the 80's (even predating BTTF's version of our time by about 6 years). What was it about "the future" that made us instinctively envision a lack of color (silver everything)? | Rick Springfield’s futuristic ‘Human Touch’ video takes place in 2016 | Jan 24, 2016 | |
| 3294 | Article | OldSchool80s | @Vapor Glad you enjoyed it! All predictions of future fashion were so far off whether you look at BTTF or any other futuristic film like Demolition Man. Rick definitely was right about the computers taking over music-making not to mention our day-to-day lives. | Rick Springfield’s futuristic ‘Human Touch’ video takes place in 2016 | Jan 24, 2016 | |
| 3281 | Article | Vaporman87 | Short but sweet. I don't recall this show at all. But the concept seems pretty solid. Thanks for bringing this to our attention, TDitH. | Long Lost 90's: Eyewitness | Jan 19, 2016 | |
| 5736 | Article | RetroOtaku620 | I love watching both eyewitness and amazing animals as a kid. I really wish I owned at least one video tape for each of those shows as a kid. Heck, I wish I owned some video tapes of those shows now! | Long Lost 90's: Eyewitness | Sep 03, 2023 | |
| 3283 | Article | Vaporman87 | This was a part of childhood I never experienced (for which I am grateful, actually). It would have been very difficult for me if I had, being a very shy and introverted kid who was also short. Probably the closest experience I could have had to this would have been my first year in high school (which, as I have previously mentioned elsewhere here at RD, was actually my 7th grade year... since there was no "middle school" in my school district. 7th graders and Seniors walked the same halls in my school). That was a bit of an awkward struggle for us all, being so young and trying to find our place amongst these high schoolers. No, I needed the stability and familiarity in my youth. Even though my status in school wasn't exactly what one would like, it was enough for me to get by without too much bullying/humiliation/etc., and I even managed to be acceptable enough to be on friendly terms with some whose status was much higher than mine. I made it work, somehow. To have to give that up and start anew... that would have crushed me, I think. I'm glad you made the most of it Hoju. My hats off to you. | Being The New Kid | Jan 19, 2016 | |
| 3284 | Article | Rick Ace Rhodes | I've been where you've been Hoju, and much like you I embraced the change. I moved out of state in the summer right before the start of 9th Grade, AKA the start of High School. I had spent my entire life up until that point in the same area I was born in. It wasn't as big of a move as California to New Jersey, but it was still a change, one of which was happening right before I started one of the most important stages of life. However, I embraced the change. I hated where I went to school growing up. I was picked on for a variety of reasons throughout middle school and parts of elementary. My 7th grade year was one of the worst years of my life. During that year I got into fights more often with those who picked on me, spent a lot of time in the principals office for those fights, and hated getting up in the morning to go to school. I'm guessing that year among other reasons was what drove my parents to move out of state. I ended up enjoying the move. I made new friends and was actually happy to get up in the morning to go to school. I'm was glad to read this article and learn of another story like mine. | Being The New Kid | Jan 19, 2016 | |
| 3285 | Article | pikachulover | It think it depends on where you live in California. Were I went to school junior high was from 6th-8th grade. But there was this strange limbo where you could choose to be at the elementary school up until 8th grade. | Being The New Kid | Jan 19, 2016 | |
| 3282 | Article | Vaporman87 | Man, who DIDN'T want some sweet, themed bunk bed set up. I would have loved to have had a set up bunk beds like what is available today. So many varieties, and with some really cool features. Like you, it would have been pretty pointless for me to have bunk beds. It was just me and my sister for one part of my childhood (and we had separate rooms), and me and my brother for the rest (but we just had a queen bed in the basement). By the time I was living with my dad, I was not really interested in having a bunk bed. We did have a set of bunk beds for the boys for a few years here. But we did away with them recently (the top bunk never got used). | Bunk Beds | Jan 19, 2016 | |
| 3286 | Article | pikachulover | I never had a bunk bed as a kid. Although I did want one for a while until my mom said it was not very practical for me to have one. That and my fear of earthquakes combined led to me not having a bunk bed. My friend in high school lofted his bed. He was strange he moved around the furniture in his room at least once a month and his room was not that large. He told me to loft my bed too. The problem with his bed was that was not constructed it very well. He just added beams to a regular bed. It looked like it was going to topple over if you sneezed by the thing. If I remember correctly he wanted his computer under his lofted bed. I had a few relatives with bunk beds. But they usually slept on the bottom and put their toys on the top bunk. | Bunk Beds | Jan 19, 2016 | |
