By Tanya
Halloween is a privilege that kids are mostly taking for granted. You get to dress up in ridiculous costumes, and when you're young, you get to walk around and get free snacks from everyone in your neighborhood. You can't really go trick-or-treating when you're an adult, but at least now we can buy our own candy supplies. Sure, it's not as satisfying as getting it for free, but at least we get our sugar fix.

The Hair-Raising History Of How Trolls Became One Of The Longest-Lasting Toy Trends

By Tanya
I think we can all agree that looking back on our childhoods makes us reevaluate some of our obsessions. Did we need all of those Beanie Babies? Probably not. Did we need every POG available? Probably not. Was Tickle Me Elmo really worth the effort our parents put in? I guess not. But those things were just short little trends that passed by in a few short years. There was another toy, one that's even weirder than a game based on cardboard disks that managed to last for decades, and is making its comeback now: Trolls. Troll dolls seemed like

80s Icon Kathleen Turner Opens Up About Hollywood Drama And Her 'Bad Reputation'

By Tanya
If there is one voice out there that could make you feel like you are stepping into the 80s, it is the raspy voice of Kathleen Turner. Turner starred in iconic 80s movies like Body Heat, Peggy Sue Got Married, Romancing the Stone, and many others, but her long career hasn't always been easy going. In a new interview with Vulture, she was very blunt about her time in Hollywood, especially when it comes to her opinions of other actors. It's refreshing and honestly a little bit surprising to hear someone in the public eye like her actually reveal her

But for every Pepsi Blue or Surge there are plenty of sodas that have been forgotten in the sands of time, not to mention some that we probably just blocked from our memories. 1) BurpleBurple was only around for a few short years in the 80s, probably because it wasn't really anything more than a Kool-Aid-esque powder in an expandable accordion bottle. The idea was it would come all scrunched up, so you'd expand it to

By Awa
Oh, how times have changed! I look at the kids and teenagers nowadays and it's like they're growing up in a totally different world than the one I knew. Everything is so fast paced and technology-driven, unlike back in the 80s and 90s, when every new discovery and invention left us in awe.

If you also did these things, then
