Top 10 Signs Your Parents are Stuck in the 80s


Number 10:


Your mom picks you up from school. You open the car door and Caribbean Queen is blasting on the radio.


Number 9:


Your dog’s name is Boogaloo … after Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo.


Number 8:


You look at your mom’s jeans with concern. “Mom, those aren’t skinny jeans.” She puts a hand on her hip and smiles. “I know, they’re tapered.”


Number 7:


You’re trying to get over a bad break-up and your mom tells you, “Give him a day or two. Next thing you know, he’ll be outside your window, holding up his boombox playing, In Your Eyes.”


Number 6:


You’re mom picks up a Wii controller and says, “This game looks easy. It’s just like Frogger.”


Number 5:


You’re at a wedding … sitting at a table with your mom. Your dad approaches, grabs your mom’s hand, and says, “Nobody puts baby in a corner.”


Number 4:


You’re watching a crunk-dance on youtube with your friends. Your dad comes in and says, “I can do that.” And he starts doing the robot.  


Number 3:


Your mom volunteers to choreograph your sister’s dance recital and you find her teaching the dance moves to Lucky Star by Madonna.


Number 2:


Your dad is ready to play basketball with your brother. Your brother refuses to go because dad looks like Kurt Rambis.


And the number 1 sign your parents are stuck in the 80s is:


Your mom’s workout clothes … leotard, headband, and legwarmers … in bright neon colors.
