    I assume that his clothes are fluro in colour :) Flannel everything and big puffy jackets… Slouch jeans and whatever fashion was about a year or two old in the US (that’s how long it took Australia to catch on ;o)

    The only thing missing from this picture that I remember from those days is a poster of Ricky Henderson or Jose Canseco on the wall. Oh, and I would have been sitting on a bean bag chair.

    All that mattered to me was RBI baseball!!! For real…i probably spent hundreds of dollars on that game at the local baseball card shop!

    Jake — I agree that RBI Baseball was (and is) the greatest game ever. However, that appears to be Baseball Stars — a MUCH richer game experience, but with much worse gameplay. RBI forever!

    Jessie Spano, and AC Slater singing “How Am I Supposed to Live Without You,” while Zack Morris and Kelly Kapowski are breaking up… That was the worst day of my life.

    Let’s see…I had normal pants not those. I listened to Stryper and Barren Cross not Mariah Carey. I had time to ride my bicycle with no TV game system. My biggest “had” not in the picture: a wife and 2 girls. Hmmm…don’t think I was missing anything.

    1990… my first year of seminary. we were destitute and subsisted off of ramen noodles for almost 2 years. nope, not a package of ramen in that pic…

    are those zubaz pants?

  20. Erica 14 October 2009 at 7:05 am #

    Okay…so as an EIGHT year old ::cough:: NKOTB and skorts (yes skorts: skirts with shorts built in) were a part of my life… and a crush named Casey Callahan who had something to do with my process of going through my first communion in the Catholic church. He was in High School. Very cute. Totally unavailable.

    Where’s the mondo computer tower with the 20 MB harddrive and 128 KB of RAM that will NEVER get full? Oh, what a great freshman year of high school that was!

    The first thing I noticed was that the Nintendo game was NOT RBI baseball. After reading these comments, I have shed a few small tears with those who have already voiced their approval of the greatest baseball game for the original Nintendo ever created. The picture is also missing the life size poster of all 6′10″ of Randy Johnson in a Mariner’s team outfit.

    where’s the Jello 1-2-3?

  25. Rhys Searles 14 October 2009 at 9:03 am #

    I for sure miss those pants, and I was young lol but seriously that pic is missing the cool shades. (weird to see them back now, ie Urban Outfitters, PacSun …you know the ones I’m talking bout, thick plastic framed)

    My walkman!

    Baseball Allstars!!! (which is in that picture) That was (and prolly still is) my favorite game ever made!!! Niicee.

    This may simply be the best combination of picture and caption I have ever seen.

  29. Amanda Sims 14 October 2009 at 4:27 pm #

    Mousse, gel, hairspray and a teasing comb.

    Braces, slick back hair, and a preacher’s curl (aka the Gospel Hall Roll!)

    Still had my mullet in 1990. If I wasn’t bald I would grow it back today, loved that mullet.
