>A Blast from the Past
>Things were different when I was a kid. Back then, if the Kool-Aid man showed up, the whole neighborhood would’ve celebrated with a tall glass of iced Kool-Aidy goodness.
Today if the Kool-Aid man stopped by, he’d attract four different news crews, face attempted kidnapping charges, and get sued by the fence owner for damages.
When I was a kid, we watched commercials for a popular appetite suppressant. Today, we wonder why on earth this company went out of business…
When I was a kid, I had to worry about keeping up with the Commodore. Now, I think I pretty much have him beat.
When I was a kid, Jason Alexander was known for keeping the hot hot and the cool cool. Now, he’s known for double dipping.
When I was a kid, we asked our moms disgusting personal questions. Wait, no we didn’t.
Yep, those were the days…

>Ah, yes, my mom recommended Massengill to me as we were walking down the beach as well. Those were the days.And that kool-aid commercial? My two year old watched it, pointed at the kool-aid dude and said DADDY!
>Thanks for bringing back some childhood memories for me, too. Those were the days…
>This is….um….strange? At my house we click the mute button so we don’t have to listen to the commercials. Here I click on the button so I can get commercialized. I am going to remember this, missy.
>The good ol’days! The Commodore is a real blast from the past!
>When I was a kid, summer vacation seemed to last for years before September rolled around.
>Is it wrong that I still like Kool-Aid?
>I grew up in a landlocked state so I couldn’t ask my mom about douche. (We didn’t have a porch swing, either.)
>You are right, we didn’t talk with our moms about disgusting personal things. In fact when I was around 6 years old my mother and I were in the grocery store. She picked up a package of Kotex and I asked what they were. She told me they were “Adult Band-Aids”. I was 6 years old so I believed her. A few days later she had some friends over for coffee and cake. I came running out to show them my Christy doll. Christy and I were playing doctor…”She had a really bad accident so we had to use a lot of the big ‘Adult Band-Aids’ but she will be ok.” My mother’s jaw dropped to the floor and her face turned many shades of red. Her friends, on the other hand, could not control their laughter! Yes, Christy had Kotex all over her face, arms, legs and body.Ah, the commodore, it only took me two weeks to type in all the codes required to create a blinking cubed Christmas tree. So not worth all that time typing.
>Ha! One to add…I had to explain to my husband how women don’t actually carry their own salad dressing or cans of soup around in their purses for when they really needed it.
>That diet pill one… ouch. Those were funny!
>Man, I’m glad that they don’t do the “not so fresh feeling” commercials anymore…of course, they’re quickly being replaced with the “Valtrex, everyone has genital herpes” commercials. Guess you have to trade one for the other.
>Oh. My. God. Those douche commercials were hysterical, weren’t they?
>I thought I was weird for not asking my mom abou that “not so fresh feeling”
>So funny!
>mmm, vinegarand water…… sounds like a snack to me…..yup.a snack, if ever I heard one.indeed.”jjbatps”B-O———
