I found this place after google searching 80's messageboards for nearly 3 days  ;D

In all honesty, I saw someone talking about this place on the messageboard that I was banned from.  I followed the link and liked the look of this place so much, I jumped right in  :)

Being bored one day I "asked Jeeves" about misheard lyrics
and like Dominic I was sent to "Am I Right" from there I found
these boards.

banned!! >GASP<

Was it from some site with a million lame ads on it constantly begging people for money? They probably did you a favor.


Banned yep, for lashing out at a moderator who was making jokes about my nationality. 

They do have zillions of ads there.  Finding inthe00s was such a change, as I was used to way different things on that other board (which I shouldn't name by name, so I won't LOL) ...



In their board games section, you are only allowed 1 post in each topic per day
You have to wait 30 seconds before you can post again after you've posted something
In order to be a member, you aren't allowed to use freemail accounts (Yahoo, MSN, etc ...) to sign up (This one came into effect after I got banned)
In order to get a signature, you have to donate money to the site
They have an arcade section there, but in order to access it, you have to attain so many posts, and be a member for a certain length of time

Yahoo search engine, searching for stuff, anything about the 70's, stories, music, anyone who's tried to chronicle that decade, including late 60's, whatever and,  well,  it looks like I found it.

I was surfing and found the giant "in the 70s" song quiz...210 questions!
I followed that trail to this site.
and never, ever, ever, left.

Google searched a song parody called "Walk with an erect***", a co-worker had told me about the song parody. Found this site(and a few variations of that parody).

I was also on another webpage answering a what's that song question from someone and found this site had the answer...funny enough! So cheers to the smart one who had the answer that other person heard from me.

A Year ago I was going through this craze where I wanted jeans from the 80's
(The kind with snap up front pockets and snap up knee pockets)

Anyway, I hit "I'm feeling lucky" on Google and voila!!!!

Haven't been able to tear myself away since! ;) ;D

I was looking for the name of a bag that we used to carry our books in when I was in Jr High, which was in the 80's.

I was looking up some misheard lyrics (James Reyne to be exact ;D) and thought I'd click on the messageboard link. That was on the 1st February 2003  :D

I can't remember, it was a while ago. I'm sure I mentioned it somewhere.


I think it was through inthe80s/amiright or whatever.

I was trying to find some information on the music cue that used to accompany the "peacock opening its feathers" graphic that NBC used in the early sixties, because for some reason that music used to scare the living s*** out of me when I was but a little child! :o :\'(
