The terms 80's baby, when associated with myself means:
If you had an atari before nintendo
Played with cabbage patch kids
Collected garbage pail kids cards
Went to the movies to see Mac and Me and thought he was cooler than E.T.
Woke up earlier on Saturday mornings to watch pee wee's play house so you can scream "the word of the day"
If you knew the lyrics to self destruction and fight the power.
Played hot peas and butter, double dutch, steal the bacon, skully.. etc
Knew the entire dance routine to Michael Jackson's Thriller
I could go on, and on....
My fondest memory is whenever this song came on the radio, you couldn't tell me I wasn't the shyt!
