20 Of The Weirdest And Grossest Garbage Pail Kids We All Loved For Some Unknown Reason

By Tanya |

<div><p>We all know and love<a href="https://www.throwbacks.com/remember-cabbage-patch-kids-theyre-31-years-old-2123968927/" target="_blank"> Cabbage Patch Kids</a> right? They are cute, cuddly and adorable. Then there are the Garbage Pail Kids. They are not cute, not cuddly, and adorable but probably almost as popular. </p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/05/b40b66b234596059dc95ce6219a4d2b9.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><p>These horrifyingly bizarre creations were made as sort of the parody of the Cabbage Patch Kids. They were specifically designed to be as disgusting and offensive as possible (in contrast to their inspiration) which was 100% their appeal. This was of course before the Cabbage Patch Dolls became <a href="https://www.throwbacks.com/the-truth-behind-the-crazy-90s-recall-that-made-us-all-a-little-afraid-of-our-dolls/" target="_blank">terrifying enough on their own.</a></p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/05/os2_42a.jpeg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><p>Parents hated them, schools despised them, but kids were obsessed. In 1987 there was even a movie made and the creator of the Garbage Pail Kids admits that it's a terrible movie. </p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/05/Garbage-Pail-Kids-Movie-120815-1.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><p>How many of these do you remember?

30 Toys From The Sears Wishbook We All Wanted Under Our Christmas Tree 30 Years Ago

By Tanya
I think we can all agree that one of the best things to do while growing up was digging through the Sears Wishbook to try and make our Christmas lists.It was around this time every year that we started to get really serious about it, even though Christmas was still a ways off. We obviously needed a lot of time to plan out our lists for Santa Claus, and we weren't about to make the same mistake as the year before and forget to send one! The Wishbook was an important part of that and while it may not

10 Weebles Playsets From Our Childhoods We Loved To Watch Wobble

By Tanya
There were always toys when you were a kid that seemed to be more important than the rest. There were some that you couldn't go to bed without, there were others that you spent months begging your parents for, and then there were a few that were just staples, readily available where ever you went. No matter which friends house you were at or doctor's office waiting room you were in, there were some that just seemed to be everywhere. Weebles were one of the toys you would be mostly likely to find anywhere that toys were set up for

This One Teen's Tweet About Burning CDs Will Honestly Ruin Your Day

All of us who would consider ourselves to be 80s and 90s kids aren't really that old, right? We are still in the prime of our lives, and a lot of us still feel like we're just getting started on our path to being a "real grown-up." Maybe it's not the greatest that a lot of us still feel young, but times have changed since our parents were in their 30s. We've learned how to chill out and take our time in our lives. There's no rush, so let's all just relax and try to stay young longer.Here's the

Ikea Is Bringing Back The Couch Of Your Nightmares, And People Have A Lot To Say About It

By Tanya
Remember when you were growing up and you'd go hang out in the living room for hours and hours, never leaving your spot on the couch? Well, honestly I can't pretend much has changed, other than the fact that the couch has fewer flowers on it than ever before. Most people stick to a single color now, but back in the day there was apparently nothing more desirable than a good floral pattern. Big flowers, small flowers, pinks ones, or blue, every combination was waiting for you. We've all seen a lot of bad couches in our days, but when

There's Now Only One Blockbuster Left, But It Refuses To Give Up

By Tanya
We've all known for a while that Blockbuster was basically a lost cause. Most Blockbuster locations closed down many years ago, leaving behind their empty buildings that look like they house all the ghosts of the 90s. However there were a few places where Blockbuster Video refused to die. There were six locations remaining in Alaska, and one in Bend, Oregon, but this weekend marks a sad moment. All of the Alaskan Blockbusters have been officially closed. Four had actually been closed earlier in the year, but this weekend the final two locations closed their doors for good. But don't
