I'm going to preface this by saying, "I HAVE A PENIS, AND DO NOT GROK MANY OF THE QUESTIONS BELOW BECAUSE OF IT." Thank you, drive through.
1. Duran Duran or Culture Club?
Duran Duran, if only because CC only had one song that I can remember, and I might get some halo-effect female attention from all the stored Simon LeBon lust that seems endemic. Their music wasn't bad, either. :-p
2. "We Are The World" or "Do They Know It's Christmas"?
No, thanks.
3. Adam Ant or Bow Wow Wow?
Stray Cats. If I'm gonna put up with kitchy camp, it's gonna be crap that -I- like.
4. New Romantic or New Wave?
New sneakers. I had no appreciation for 80's fashion, and the phrase still only conjures vague memories of something I consider "Flock of Seagulls Hair" and "Jordache." I wore jeans and t-shirts for the entire decade, sod off.
5. Hair Bands or Heavy Metal?
Hair bands, by a follicle. I didn't get much metal until the turn of the decade.
6. Transformers or Go-Bots?
Transformers. Hands down.
7. Teddy Ruxpin and Grubby or Cricket (talking girl doll)?
No. I think I had a Speak 'n' Spell.
8. Fingerless lace gloves or bandana around the ankle?
No. I have a penis.
9. New Coke or Classic Coke?
New Coke, because it didn't taste like battery acid and nut-sweat. . . ie: it was Coke trying harder to taste like The One True Cola, Pepsi.
10. Simply Red or Crowded House?
Who?
11. Did you ever do "The Rock"?
No, but I can do a mean rendition of "The People's Eyebrow." I have also turned Japanese and been blinded by science, however.
12. Can you "Safety Dance"?
No. And if you do it in my presence, I'll shove an electric slide up your sweet patootie on Electric Avenue. Fucking HATE that song, second only in popular insipid-spelling vitriol engendering to "S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night!" by whoever those fucking bozos are. *hiss, spit, vomit*
13. Would you consider yourself Darling Nikki or Dirty Diana?
I'll be Vincent Price, thanks. I wonder if Snow knows where Michael's original nose is. . . maybe with the GothCon money. Heh.
14. Did you have plans to party in 1999?
I had vague premonitions about being hit by a bus, actually. They didn't pan out.
15. Did you HEAR "1999" right after midnight, January 1, 1999?
Thank god, no. I heard MBI smooching his then-GF and the tickety-tickety of my typing as I made sure IRC still worked.
16. Were you sick to death of that song by January 1, 2000?
I was sick to death of that song by January 1, 1990... [i second da gekko here]
17. Did you identify more with Clare (Molly Ringwald) or Allison (Ally Sheedy)?
No, I have a penis. I was, however, painfully aware of Johnson's resemblance to myself. Thanks for bringing that up.
18. Were your teenage years more "Sixteen Candles" or "The Breakfast Club"?
Stand By Me, if I was lucky. Nobody makes movies about boring dorks, though I heard countless repetitions of "You remind me SO MUCH of Ducky" that, when I finally saw it fifteen years later, I was appalled.
19. What was your wildest Day Off, a la Ferris Bueller?
I had perfect attendance through most of high school, actually. I didn't have anything better to do. I was Cameron without the height. Or the hot chick kissing me to get me out of catatonia.
20. "All Night Long" or "Caribbean Queen"?
Erm... "Let's Roll Over Lionel Ritchie With A Tank" by DethTongue. :) [Panda nailed this one. . . I just can't find the umlauts]
21. What would you have done differently to save Julian ("Less Than Zero")?
Who? What?
22. Mogwai or Gremlins?
Gremlins. [Ewoks? You sick little bitch. That makes me not want to do evil things to you. . . *squick*]
23. Cyndi (fully poseable doll) or Jem?
I have a penis, thanks.
24. Madonna or Cyndi Lauper?
Madonna.
25. Corey Feldman or Corey Haim?
No, thanks. I can't even remember what CH looked like.
26. Atari, Intellivision, or Coleco?
Yes. Don't make me whip my tech.dick out.
27. K-Tel or Ronco?
No, thanks.
28. Mullet or Mohawk?
At different times, both.
29. Poison or Skid Row?
Skid Row's music was better, or at least I have more positive memories associated with it.
30. Ratt or Brittney Fox?
Null response.
31. Rick Springfield or Corey Hart?
Rick Springfield, mostly because of a 90's air-guitar incident.
32. The Police or Sting solo?
Deafness, thanks. Put down the rocks, this is my fucking journal. [From The Onion: Sting: "Wow, I used to be pretty cool once"]
33. Color of favorite legwarmers?
I have a penis, thanks.
34. Color of favorite big-ass 80s hairbow clip?
I have a penis, thanks.
35. How many times did you shoplift at Claire's Boutique?
I have a penis, thanks.
36. "Valley Girl" or "Punk Rock Girl"?
Both, thanks. To go.
37. If you could go back to the 80s knowing all you know now... would you?
If I could go back and relive from about 1985 on, knowing then what I know now? You bet your ass. If I had to disappear from the present to be a 30 year old in the 80's, that's a hell of a lot less appealing.

Well hey, you can't have 'em all. :P
And I like them only because they're part of the star wars universe.
Sorry, next time I'll say "wookie". :P
