Here, boys. When you think of me, think of fattening comfort food. I just hope that she and Jungle Safari Jill next to her were able to score a 2 for 1 deal on perms that month.
I’m feeling a bit peckish. Venison, anyone?
The following Pegasus dress is pretty fly for a white girl, but how could it possibly compare to a graphic 3/4 sleeve sweater that also teaches us dumb Americans to speak French?
Maybe these sweaters were worn by French students? The models look très peeved.
Speaking of apples, check out that big screen monitor!
How about a guy in a sweater, using his Apple to get important work done?
I believe that big slit was where the floppy disk went…
Now that’s the right way to rock an apple!
I Don't Get It 
Love it!

You gave us so much here, Kerbey. I did not use computers back in the day when you had to put floppy discs in them, so I never had a floppy. I know I never would stack a printer on top of a tiny little monitor like those two doofi.
I don’t think I ever had a sweater with words written in a foreign language, unless the way me and my friends pronounced Islanders as Eyelunduhs in our LawnGuyLand accents counts.
Finally, think that girl in photo one got the present from her boyfriend, whose father owned the town’s only pizza parlor. Only explanation.

You never used a floppy? BTW, this post was not supposed to go out. My WPress is doing odd things lately. When I hit READER, it takes me to a new blog.???
That could be good justification for her pizza pahler ensemble. I just watched an episode of “Long Island Medium,” so I will imagine you talking like Teresa Caputo. But look, when we hit the green in Bellevue, you better tidy that accent up.

The first computer I used was the terminal we got in the newsroom at the Prince George’s Journal newspaper. Keyboard. Screen. That’s all, folks.
My accent has diminished. It only comes back when I’m talking with my sisters, who have never left Long Island, and whose accents have not diminished. Think Medium with more class.

Lordy Christmas has come early. So much visual information. Big hair, gawd awful ugly sweaters, stone washed jeans, Grecian urn dresses and antique computers. An indictment of the 80’s, as I see it. And what is with the dude in the top picture? Loose tie, Kirk Cameron do. Just 2 cool 4 school. Thank you.

Are we just not going to talk the girl on the far left in third photo? Does she actually have a broomstick for a left arm?

I think the scanner is to blame on that count, but wow, she would be much more interesting with a broomstick arm!

Oh wow that’s me! the girl with the apple sweater. No wait, I think mine had pink and black teddy bears on it. Never mind. Kerbey you’re too funny dear friend!

I had a pink sweatshirt that had black teddy bears across the chest. I wore a collared shirt under it, so you could see the collar come out over the sweatshirt. I want to see your picture.

wow, fun post. I will cop to thinking the girls in that second photo are very pretty! The long and feathered hair–so many hours with that curling iron. And I genuinely love that last apple dress. Spiffy 🙂 Everything else is horrible just horrible and I agree with you on all counts.
