Show & Tell
You can’t tell from the photo, but my sist-in-law Ashley is seriously pissed. See, this was her Cabbage Patch Kid themed birthday. Everyone was explicitly instructed to bring their own CPK to the party. And what does her mom do? Forgets hers!
Here she is posing with an imposter.
I know, right? Child abuse.
Show & Tell
Danny will always remember his 11th birthday. Um, probably because this happened. At least the little shit wasn’t spoiled.
*If you have pics for our weekly Wednesday series please send them to imremembering@gmail.com with SHOW AND TELL in the subject line. Photos with prominently displayed 80’s and early 90’s toys, games, and merch are encouraged. We especially love birthday parties (presents!), holidays (presents!) and Halloween (costumes!).
Do you remember?
Ok people, time for another heartbreaking round of “Do You Remember”…
1. “Am I the only one who remembers a show (I cannot remember the name) that had a bunch of kids pretending to run their own tv show? They had a countdown at the beginning to “air”. Do you remember?”
2. “Do you know what those burger/sandwich shaped books were called? You’d flip through the pages of the book and there would be all sorts of gross bugs and things hiding in the pages, and i think it had a main character named Alex but i’m not sure. Do you remember?”
3. “I used to have a stuffed bear with long arms and legs, with velcro on them, so that I could strap it on my wrists and legs to do cartwheel together. Do you remember anything like that?”
*These queries are reader-submitted. If there is something you would like to remember (but can’t) please send your submission to imremembering@gmail.com with the subject line “DO YOU REMEMBER?”
