Re: How you know you experienced the 90's [22) 10p Space Raiders Crisps and, even more amazing ... they are still 10p now (perhaps smaller though) !!!!
That doesn't matter. She was obviously desperately trying to hit the 1000 post mark before her first full month on the board was over. I'm sure you'd rather see this again than some of the other random thread's she starts
Some more: 1. Those fucking pin art things that everyone got for Christmas. Everyone made moulds of their face and hands, and kept thinking about what else they could do with it. Fuck all, was the answer to that in case you're still wondering. 2. NHS dentists. They went out of fashion didnt they? 3. Blur vs Oasis. Fuck them both, who gives a shit. then or now. 4. An average 3 bed semi costing around 3x the average national salery, instead of at least 6x. 5. Harry Enfields dime bar advert. Five star fucking idiot. 6. Speed cameras were still a myth, and some of us thought those two thin pipes in the road were laid to catch us out! 7. Bryan Adams. Everything I do. 16 weeks at number one. Grand waste of everyones time, money, and effort. 8. Portable CD players still cost £150... 9. Petrol at 49.9p per litre 10. Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. Heroes in a half shell. Total fuckpigs.
