I didn't see KISS but I saw NKOTB a few times so thats basically the same thing!!

New kids on the block the same as kiss?
For fucks sake, have you been dabbling in my edibles already today?

1981 is checking most of these boxes, but I’ll take my millennial label and let you X’ers feel special in peace

Oh wow. You’re pretty much right on the border of the two generations.

Who was your favorite??
Personally I was in love with Joey when I was 13!

So... Anyone else buy their high school dream car?

Hubby's midlife crisis introduced a 1991 convertible Mustang into our family.

I bought him a Member's Only jacket (they still sell them on Amazon) after he got her.

I did. Way before midlife. Got really close to finishing her before I sold her

None of them..
But seeing this gives me flashbacks of a saturday detention for stuffing someone in a locker.

Can't forget this one

That was my favorite show. I didn’t find out until years later that it was supposed to be a comedy spoof.

I didn't know how, so I never had big hair. lol

Me either! I got my bangs permed (only the bangs, wtf was I thinking!) but still couldn’t do the styling.

I didn't see KISS but I saw NKOTB a few times so thats basically the same thing!!

I was a huge NKOTB fan… who was your favorite? I liked Jon, the quiet older one, but also Joey, of course Got to see them once!

Oh no!!! Detention!! I would have never imagined you ever doing anything to deserve that!!

I couldn't get "volume" either.

Ok ladies here is a step by step on how to do 80's hair.

1. Perms
2. Moose AND gel. Make that shit crunchy
3. Blow dry then half way done flip your head upside down and finish that way
4. You need a good Pic (the hair tool) and a good comb to tease with
5. Hairspray, Aqua Net worked very well
Take your pic and pull sections of your hair up and tease it well. Do this until you look like you had stuck your finger in a light socket
6 . On each side pull the hair away from the face and tease it then spray it until it is unlovable
7. The top. Take your curling iron and then curl that crunchy hair until there is smoke coming off of it. Take the comb and tease it straight up.
8. Spray entire head until it is hard enough to break concrete
