Has anyone found Bad Luck Brian's pet rock - the one that ran away? ≧◠‿◠≦

:-)

If you could have just made coleslaw out of Cabbage Patch Kids.

How about ground chuck?

Ah the GPK's. :-p lol I guess they did what they could.

It's rather disturbing when you look back and see how twisted our toys and music was back in the day.i loves every second of it!

Remember whacky package stickers? I myt have the name wrong but they were Mad mag style product parodies. One was Ain't toothpaste a sticky glue that will...something. Been a good while. One was Mud magazine with a pig w/ face of Mad's mascot guy saying "What? Me wallow?" instead of What? Me worry? Can't believe the worthless crap I remember somtimes. ;-D

Lol good times, thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Likewise! And yw

WIN!

Strange? No face, pure spin! Let's flicker rin.

Just wondering what kind characteristics for Bad luck Brian's pet rock that ran away?

Lore ren fa (horseshoe) st.

Say her name write and it's all ra in bows in space.

I'm surprised there wasn't any uproar about this being racist.

There was.

Goes to show how little people care about the chia pets these days. The uproar mist have been small or I would've heard something about it.

Heez haff blak. His mom was Martian. Lotsa hair dye since it started growing out green (teens?).

Ooohhh, Gettin' Jesusy

Times like these, that's all we got.

Well, Ok, we got liquor too, but still,,

That head looks kinda Darth Vadery.

Luck? Ho-ho-ho phoenix. Holo card. Waits that holo cost, run run sun, b right back after casting poke shadow, it's time for corporate brain wash ring.

Anyone remember mood rings ?

:-)

Consumer consumption baby

Lmao

I remember them vaguely. There weren't really any masculine styles (if there were, our local merchants didn't carry any), so I didn't pay them too much attention.

Look! Mood ring says: :-}

What mood is that?

Omg. Nope. I wish. Upvoted.

My pet rock still works and is environment safe and will be still 50 years from now :)

Good point. I doubt fidget spinners can claim that.

It happens once every 50 years lol

Lol. Half eye rack.

THAT'S THE SPIRIT!!!

Young Modda was a part of that generation.
Young Modda never got a pet rock, mood ring, earth shoes, and whatever else.
Stuff made no sense.

Mood ring...lol that brought back some memories. All of my friends had one. In high school the thing was for guys to get one ear pierced. My best friend did it and I gave him all kinds of crap for it.

One of my sisters had a mood ring. Do you know what happens to one when you blow a hairdryer on it? I do. To the point that it stayed one color permanently. haha

I was forced to go to a strict prep HS. Maybe two fellas had ears pierced. If I did, my folks would have killed me.
But then dudes in my neighborhood started getting buzzcuts. So did I, but with a mullet tail to look Punk. So I'm walking from the bus on the parkway here with my stupid looking head with my bottle cap 1970s big glasses, and the cops pulled over and asked for my ID! They wouldn't tell me why, but they looked and left. Maybe they thought I was an escapee from some mental facility. I didn't look dangerous, just ridiculous.

I enjoyed your brief reminiscence Modda. Upvote for you. I've been id'd a few times walking home due to the lateness of the hour (don't read into it).

Thank you, those definitely were the days...
I got hassled a couple of times for public drinking related stuff back in the 90s, but that was my fault, and luckily nothing major happened.

LOL No, most of it didn't make much sense. Although, to be honest, I did have Beatle (Chelsea) boots and those huge 1 1/2" wide wrist watch straps.

Those were great times tho. The most idiotic crap in retrospect had its charm, even the dumbest songs on radio were far better than today. Heck, I actually like Disco now.

Disco is awesome!

It was "the enemy" back then, the doom for rock. Hard Rock fans would get harcuts and become Travolta clones overnight, Invasion of the Bodysnatchers like.
I was into Punk and New Wave, so a weirdo according to both those camps. I did like a couple of songs, and KC & the Sunshine Band. But otherswise I hated it.
But now I realize it sounds pretty good, haha

They knew how to pack hooks together better back in the day. Think ABBA.

I'd rather not think of them - just kidding. Was never a fan, but yeah, still way better than today's pablum,,,

Even "Nehru Jackets" had a certain charm (even though I can proudly and honestly say I never owned one). LOL
I'm a wristwatch enthusiast, and I STILL wear those watch straps.....I even bought 2 more for myself just this past Christmas!

I didn't even know they were called that till I looked it up now. I called them China shirts because I had no clue. I always wanted one of the shirts (not the jacket) but spent my measly Baskin Robbins pay on records.
I could never get used to watches or bands on my wrist. My folks wouldn't get me any when I was younger. Then finally they got me a watch with a metal band, but in addition to feeling alien, it kept catching onto the hairs of my wrist and OUCH! That was the end of that.

Inversely, I never realized that;s what they REALLY WERE called! I just called 'em that because it was easy to remember (Nehru's daughter was Indian Prime Minister at that time).
Yes, a lot of my watch collector friends have similar horror stories about those hair-puller expansion bands. I'm so sorry your first experience with a wrist watch was a bad one. I was luckier,,,my first watches all had supple leather straps. Then I discovered Speidel Twist-O-Flex bands that didn't pull your arm hair at all.

Am I the only one thinking of Peter Sellers too? haha

I've been PTSD'd!!!
At one point I had a leather one too, but I kept shaking my wrist like I was trying to flick something off. I couldn't get used to it,,,

Diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks! LOL

In my day, leveling up was just mindless, not pathological :P

If you say so!

He's mall ring it over :D

HAHA!!!
Waiting to get in the mood,,,
