Wearing Nike high tops...unlaced
Hanging out at the mall

Lady Akasha, you sound like you could have been one of the girls that I hung out with in school! I was born in 1972.
I kept the piercings, too. My left ear is pierced 6 times, the right is pierced 3 times.
Do you remember wearing one long earing on one side and a short one on the other? Or using a safety pin for an ear ring? (Those were silly days...)

Karma Girl:
My left ear is pierced 5 times, and my right only once!
I just wear tiny hoops in those these days. but back then... *Shaking head* sometimes long dangly things nearly in each one.
And yes, in the left ear the longer the earing the better. And in the right, maybe just a stud? Did the safety pin thing too. One time in class we connected several safety pins and made a long one 
Or here's a classic, writing on the sides of the high tops high tops were a must for the 'rockers') band names in their lettering or symbols. (goofballs)
And concert shirts had to have cut off sleeves, and cut until they became midriffs.
Those were very silly days. But great ones
That statement proved I am getting old. Aaah and the fellas back then...at that age for me,the longer the hair the better 
or they just weren't eye candy

Skinning your desktop.

Desktop custimazation is where it is at now.

Michael Jackson was really a Thriller back then wasn't he? Who's Bad?????
Lets not talk about Different Strokes.
Family Ties.
And of course All in the Family.
Who's the Boss around here?

Actually, I have never watched Buffy (*shock* *horror*)
Not my type of thing..... Actually, I only watch about 2 hours of TV a *week*, so there isn't much that I watch!

Lady Akasha,
With writing on things....we used to write on everything. It wasn't abnormal to see "graffiti" all over the back of your jacket or to draw on a friends jacket.
I went through a lot of hairspray in the 80's!
Tight jeans that were folded and rolled at the ankles...
Shiny pink lipstick and nail polish...
Rock bands with "girl" hair and animal print spandex... (didn't they call that "glam" rock or something?)
Metallica when they had long hair
Colored contacts were invented (the ones that changed your eye color)
Did anyone mention MTV and VH1?

I don't think anything phased me or something...
prob was some song I don't know, nothing listed here if I think of something I'll be back!
okay I think it was maybe one song by Hall and Oats (whatever their name was) but only one song cuz the rest of their stuff stinks... (and of course I don't remember the name of the song)

Karma Girl,
Yes, you are right. We wrote on EVERYTHING. Shoes, jackets,notebooks looked entirely 'graffitied', hell writing on your hands was a thing too. (Don't ask it was the eighties...I don't know.)
Hairspray...Oh yes. AQUA NET--RAVE, and then the invention of a hair spray we called liquid cement,it was called SPLASH by a company called Focus 21. You could go through a hurricane, but every spike was in place
That pink lipstick was hideous though... Oh lordy. *Shaking head*
What about the bangles...those skinny ones, that usually came in a 10 pack. Wearing like a 100 was really in. From wrist up to as far you can go.
Caked on makeup??????
Tarantula eyes- mascara??? Back then we actually TRIED to get that look
Animal print pants... you name it, I had every animal. Zebra, Tiger, Lion, Cheetah prints pants. Then you wore them with leather black boots calf high, little dangley things hanging from the boots, jewles, studs.
Oh yeah..... THE BON JOVI JACKET!!!!!! I begged for one of those.
The long frindges/tassles hanging from the back, and arms??? (I called it the Bon Jovi Jacket) I still saved mine, it's in my closet, Keep hoping it comes back in style.
Metallica with long hair, wow I forgot about that. They were these skinny,extremely long haired 'heavy heavy metal' dudes back then.
And yes, the other 'metal' was definitely called "Glam Rock"
The poisons, Ratts,Warrant, Steel heart, I remember those...oh how sad?
Oh yeah...the black rubber bracelets??? Connecting two together and making that funny looking hook over look?
Here's one...
It used to be cool to carry a vent brush in the back pocket of your jeans.
