You're stuck between the Baby Boomers & Generations X'ers if:

1. You remember when Jordache jeans with a flat handle comb in the back pocket was cool.
2. In your class picture you were wearing an Izod shirt with the collar up.
3. You know by heart the words to any Weird Al Yankovic song (Just eat it, eat it, don't make me repeat it...)
4. Your hair at some point in time in the 80's became some-thing which can only be described by the phrase, "I was experimenting."
5. Three words: ATARI, IntelliVision and Coleco, sound familiar.
6. The phrase "Where's the beef?" still doubles you over with laughter.
7. A predominant color in your childhood photos is plaid.
8. While in high school, you and your friends discussed elaborate plans to get together again at the end of the century and play Prince's "1999" until you passed out partying.
9. You remember with pain the sad day when the Green Machine hit the streets and made our old Big Wheel quite obsolete.
10. You took family trips BEFORE the invention of the minivan.
11. You rode in the back of the station wagon and you faced the cars behind you.
12. You ever dressed to emulate a person you saw in either a Duran Duran, Madonna or Cyndi Lauper video.
13. Schoolhouse Rock played a HUGE part in how you actually learned the English language (Conjunction junction, what's your function....).
14. You honestly remember when film critics raved that no movie could ever possibly get better special effects than those in the movie TRON.
