| 3085 | Article | Vaporman87 | This sounds JUST LIKE how I want my upcoming Thanksgiving to play out. Just perfect in every way. Yes, it's like the red-headed stepchild of the holiday season for some. But for me, it's like a nice, delicious, warm-up for Christmas. You can't beat that. | Nov 05, 2015 |  | |
| 3092 | Article | Vaporman87 | All of those masks are stellar for their time, and look great even by today's standards. Especially the Gremlins Collector's masks. Those are just incredible. I would have LOVED to have a matching costume for a mask like that for Halloween. I don't recall ever seeing masks of this quality around as kid. At least not in your typical department store. Everything was Ben Cooper or Collegeville. | Retro Rubber Masks | Nov 09, 2015 | |
| 3095 | Article | Vaporman87 | I've always been a Mr. T fan. He's a success story that is an inspiration to many. It'd be so cool to meet him. | The Most Awesome Things Mr T Has Done | Nov 09, 2015 | |
| 3096 | Article | Vaporman87 | The best of this bunch in my humble opinion, is Bedknobs and Broomsticks. That movie was repeatedly viewed by my brother and I, as we both loved the final sequence of events. The suits of armor versus the Nazis was just awesome. It has many catchy songs (Portabello Road, Beautiful Briny Sea, etc.) and the mix of animation and live action is well done. | Top 10 Classic Live Action Disney Movies | Nov 09, 2015 | |
| 3105 | Article | Vaporman87 | With regard to the Burger King Kids Club, there is a Burger King about 25 minutes away from me with a play zone that features several of the Kids Club gang. It is a nice reminder of what used to be. That Burger King isn't very old, so they made a choice to deck it out in properties that have been gone for a while. It's nice. | What I Miss From Childhood | Nov 16, 2015 | |
| 3104 | Article | Vaporman87 | Don't feel bad. I felt the same way. When my teacher in grade school would execute a perfect letter on the chalkboard (after first using one of those chalkholders that would draw three lines together on the board, equally separated), I would just get fed up that I couldn't replicate her perfection on a piece of paper. Like you, I never used cursive for anything but signing my name, and even then it's been reduced to illegible doctor's signature style. Even so, I think it's a shame that we are slowly doing away with teaching cursive. Something about it seems culturally significant to me, though I'm not sure why. | Cursive Curse | Nov 16, 2015 | |
| 3121 | Video | Vaporman87 | Sony Pictures Animation was in talks to create an Alf movie (much like they did with Smurfs), but there's been no news that I know of on that since 2012. | Alf Intro | Nov 18, 2015 | |
| 3122 | Video | Vaporman87 | This is a toy line that has garnered a cult following, yet I never heard of it in my youth. | Food Fight Commercial | Nov 18, 2015 | |
| 3130 | Article | Vaporman87 | Surprisingly, we never owned a single one of these items. That's right. I was totally deprived of these. In fact, I don't even know of any friends who owned any of these items. Man, how did I even survive? LOL Nowadays you can even own a miniature "claw game" for your home. The kids get a kick out of that... until they get tired of always "winning" items that they already owned. | 3 Essential 80s Home Decor Items | Nov 23, 2015 | |
| 3131 | Article | Vaporman87 | Well, I wasn't as desperate as you when it came to snack foods. We had plenty usually stashed in the pantry in the kitchen. But that doesn't mean I was not guilty of food thievery. Truth be told, I was guilty of it in an "against the law" way! See, once, while my mom and I were in a local department store (the mom and pop kind, not the big retailer kind), I took it upon myself to try my hand at theft. Yup. I snuck a candy bar into my pocket and made it out of there with it. All the way home actually. Then, when I foolishly (and perhaps, over-confidently) munched away on my spoils, my mom asked me where the candy had come from. I wasn't going to lie. I'm guessing I felt so much guilt over having just committed theft, that lying on top of that would just push me to the next logical step of joining a gang and shooting people. So I chose to fess up. I was then spanked, forced to call the sweet little old lady at the department store, and apologize to her through my tears. She graciously forgave me, and life was well again. Needless to say, I NEVER stole anything EVER again. LOL | Confessions: The Snack Burglar | Nov 23, 2015 | |
