You Know You Grew Up In The 80's or Early 90's If:
14. You saw the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on the big screen..and still know the turtles names.
Michealangelo, Donatello (my personal favorite), Raphael, and Leonardo. Now can you name the weapons each used?
15. You got super-excited when it was Oregon Trailday in computer class at school.
The best days ever!
17. You played the game "MASH"(Mansion, Apartment, Shelter, House)
The MASH game is online now! http://mashgame.com/
56. You tight rolled your jeans.
I so loved this style.
59. You had big hair and you knew how to use it.
This is the one thing I didn't have and am so thankful for looking back at old high school pictures.
OT: My 4 year old daughter saw a picture of DH from high school (curly hair mullet) and said "Who's that?" That's Daddy I replied. Her: "What happened to his face?"

I can relate to many of those. A few more that I can think of are:
You can remember a soda brand called "Tab".
You could buy can of soda out of the machine for a quarter.
There were still a few places here and there that had the glass bottle pop machines.
Cans of soda had that ring that you pull off instead of the pull back tab that they have today.
Hearing the music to "Dallas" brings back instant flashbacks to your childhood.
You can remember when your character on a video game was just a colored square or triangle.
You can remember still having to get up and turn the channel nob or push the channel buttons on the front of the TV.

Even though I'm in the UK, most of those are accurate! I still have my Carebear even though her eyes have kinda rubbed off and she's a bit tatty now! It's Carealot, the one with the two hearts on her belly!
And I LOVED the turtles! Leonardo was always my fave and I was so excited when I got to meet them on my first trip over to Florida when I was 8!
They don't make cartoons like they used to!

Off the top of my head:
Now, this is a story all about how
My life got flipped-turned upside down
And I liked to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air
In west Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys
Who were up to no good
Startin making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
She said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air'
I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she packed my suite case and send me on my way
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket.
I put my walkman on and said, 'I might as well kick it'.
First class, yo this is bad
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass.
Is this what the people of Bel-Air Living like?
Hmmmmm this might be alright.
But wait I hear there're prissy, wine all that
Is Bel-Air the type of place they send this cool cat?
I don't think sow
I'll see when I get there
I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air
Well, the plane landed and when I came out
There was a dude who looked like a cop standing there with my name out
I ain't trying to get arrested
I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightening, disappeared
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I can say this cab is rare
But I thought 'Now forget it' - 'Yo homes to Bel Air'
I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the cabbie 'Yo homes smell ya later'
I looked at my kingdom
I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air

50. You know all the words to Bon Jovi - SHOT THROUGH THE HEART.
Little known fact to non-die hard Bon Jovi fans. My guess is, the above is in reference to You Give Love A Bad Name (1986):
However, in 1984, on their debut album, there was a song actually called Shot Through The Heart:
