Are You a Child of the 70s? – Page 1

You still wonder if Mikey died from a lethal cocktail of Pop Rocks and Coca Cola.


You ever asked to be gagged with a spoon.

You remember when film critics were certain that no movie could ever possibly get better special effects than those in the movie TRON.

If male: your first love was Marsha Brady, Jeannine, Samantha from Bewitched, Josie or any one of the Pussycat.

You can remember the words to the theme song of "The Greatest American Hero." ("BELIEVE IT OR NOT, I'M WALKIN' ON AIR... I NEVER THOUGHT I COULD FEEL SO FREE-EE-EE...")

You've recently horrified yourself by using any one of the following phrases: "You know, back when...," "When I was your age...," or "When I was younger..."

You actually remember Mr. Bill.

You recall when Love's Baby Soft was in every girl's Christmas stocking.

You ever owned a Donnie and Marie or Sonny and Cher poster.

You remember having a rotary phone.

"All skaters, change directions" means something to you.

You remember having to get off the couch to change the TV channel.

You remember "Friday Night Videos" before the days of MTV.

You're currently employed doing something that has absolutely nothing to do with your college major.

You were not allowed to see The Exorcist, The Omen, or The Blue Lagoon when they came out.

You remember when there was only "G", "PG", and "R".

A predominant colour in your childhood photos is "plaid".

You remember the days when "safe sex" meant "my parents are going out of town".

Your jaw would ache by the time you finished one of those brick-sized packages of Bazooka!

You can recite the Preamble to the Constitution, but only to the tune of Schoolhouse Rock.

You've ever owned a pair of rainbow suspenders like the ones Mork used to wear.

You know all the words to the double-album set of the "Grease" soundtrack.

You remember wanting to stay up to see Mr. Bill on Saturday Night Live.

You ever had a Dorothy Hamill haircut or used Short and Sassy shampoo.

You know who shot J.R.

You owned a Jordache anything, or you remember when Jordache jeans were cool.

Most of the fillings in your mouth are directly related to Bazooka or Bubble Yum.
