18 Things From the 90s You Totally Forgot About

By Meg
We had a lot of really interesting toys in the 90s. Things that weren't really that interesting...but with a little imagination they went a long way.We always remember the big one: Tamagotchis, Furbies, Pokemon cards, Hot Wheels, etc. But what about the forgotten toys? The ones that were a huge hit for about 3 months and then just...well they fell victim to our ever-changing childhood. Here's a list of thing that almost everyone had, but almost everyone has forgotten.1. That bird toy that would balance on your finger. Did it have a name? 2. The Deluxe

"Little Star" Was The Weirdest Show You Probably Don't Remember

By Meg
Growing up, we had a lot of kids show to watch. Some great, some not so great. One of those "not so great" shows was something called Little Star. It was an...odd...mix of both animation and terrifying puppets. The opening credits take you through space, where the planets are actually fruit? And a dog? Because that's OBVIOUSLY what happens in space. Even on IMDB there's limited information on this show. "The heroes live on "Mimosa", a beautiful well-equipped space station that travels through the galaxy. Little Star is a charming fairy space that follows a cheerful team during

Do You Remember The Big Comfy Couch Clock Stretch?

By Meg
"Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready to clown around? With Lunette and Molly, a clown and her dolly, on the BIG. COMFY. COUCH."Once you heard those words coming from the TV, it was time for everyone in the house to shut up so you could watch your favorite show.Lunette was many things, but subtle was not one of them. If she did something, she did it BIG. Which is probably why she chose to stretch every morning on a giant clock rug. Who cares why she did it, though? Odds are, I was on the

By Meg
There is no way to describe the excitement that came as a kid when your parents took you to McDonalds. It was pure adrenaline. Do I get the nuggets or the burger this time? Cheeseburger? Milkshake?

DOESN'T MATTER, I WANT THEM ALL!We put together a list of the best Happy Meal toys from the 90s and it hit us with a giant wave of nostalgia. 1. Inspector

10 Wacky Grooming Products From the '70s

By Meg
The 1970s gave us a lot in the way of fashion sense. I'd like to think us baby boomers were pretty savvy in what we chose to wear and accessorize with. I'd LIKE to think that for hair, as well. But we all know I would be wrong. There were...just a lot of big waves and big curls and big mullets. BIG mistakes. Hair, of course, wasn't the only thing weird about the 70s. We had some definitely questionable grooming prodcuts back in the day. Do you remember any of these?1. Lemon UpThere was reportedly the juice of

Can You Name These Dexter's Lab Characters?

By Meg
"Enter at your own peril, past the bolted doorwhere impossible things may happen that the world has never seen before."Dexter's Laboratory was one of the most entertaining cartoon shows of the 90s. Dexter's strange accent resonated with us for some reason, even though the rest of his family didn't have one??? Whatever. We believed it. His experiments always went terribly (THANKS, DEE DEE) but we watched all the same. Now, 21 years after it aired, can you still name all the characters from the iconic 90s show?

18 Times ER Ripped Your Heart Out And Stomped On It

By Meg
I don't think I've ever encountered a person who has never seen an episode of ER. Even if they've only seen one or two episodes, most people can give you a basic rundown of the characters. The show was on for 15 seasons and, in my extremely humble opinion, was the best thing to ever happen to TV, bar none. It had romance, comedy, drama, suspense, and straight up tragedy. I'm not ashamed to say I ugly cried at least once per season. It's like the writers specifically set out to hurt us. To this day, I don't understand how

Patrick Dempsey Is Aging Like Fine Wine

By Meg
Patrick Dempsey is just...he's just so so great. The actor got his start in the 80s classic, Can't Buy Me Love. Who didn't want to ride off with Patrick Dempsey on that lawnmower? He was just so flippin' charming. Dempsey became known for his perfect hair and his equally perfect dimples and his even MORE perfect baby blue eyes. In the 80s he was considered heart-throb royalty.Then in 2005 he starred as Derek Shepherd in the long-running Grey's Anatomy. He earned the nickname McDreamy among show characters, as well as fans. He was handsome at both points in
