Many Gen Xers who are trying to stay healthy now have a membership in the "Colonoscopy Club". Who wouldn't want to spend a day guzzling a bottomless jug of nasty laxative and making sure to stay no more than 8 feet from a bathroom? And that's only topped by getting a camera jammed up your rear end while you're passed out cold. Sounds like a party I went to once back in the 80s.

In the 70s and 80s you couldn't Google song lyrics or ask AI for help. We did it the old fashioned way. You either bought the record album to read the lyrics off the sleeve or you just plain guessed what the hell they were saying when you heard your favorite songs on the radio. Boy, we were WAAYYYY off!

So many tasty kinds of candy fueled our sugar rush in the 70s and 80s. Were you a Snickers lover? Was the whipped nougat of a Three Musketeers your bag? Did you love Red Vines or would you rather down a whole box of Milk Duds? All I know is, nobody better lay a finger on my...well, you know.

School's out and it's time for Summer Vacation! Pack up the car, unfold the map and get ready for a road trip that would make Clark Griswold proud. Even better, ship the kids off to Summer Camp and let someone else handle their shenanigans for a while!

Get your feet wet, wade a little deeper and dive right in. Swimming pools in the Gen X days were the place to cool off under the hot summer sun while perfecting your cannonball and doing the Nestea Plunge. Grab your raft and remember...NO RUNNING AROUND THE POOL!

We all remember our first jobs. Pulling down minimum wage flipping burgers, working at the record store or selling parachute pants at the mall were just a few. As Gen X teenagers in Los Angeles we were paid a pittance but there were perks beyond the paycheck like getting to work at Universal Studios, eat free chicken wings, and, best of allβ¦an unforgettable moment with Red Sonja!

You really had to be on your toes serving as an altar boy in the 80s. Heavy crosses to bear (literally), prep that church altar, ring those bells and make sure Father What's His Name didn't drink ALL the wine before mass.

Getting healthy in the 70s and 80s was a challenge. Diet soda was healthy, butter took a back seat to Margarine and smoking...? Ok, not really good for you but surely it wouldn't kill you, right? Right???

Gen X house parties back in the day started out innocently enough. Just a few friends hanging out while your parents were out of town. Until word got around. Remember how word got around before cell phones? And the outcome? Four kegs, a full band, 200 people you didn't know and that friend who looked like Paulie Shore passed out on your front lawn the next morning. Not to mention that time the parents came home right in the middle of the wildest house party of the 1980s...

Attending school social events and dances in the Gen X days was supposed to be fun and help teach us social skills. In the end, we wound up with prom photos featuring pastel cummerbunds and super wave hair bangs.
