20 Aspects of the ’70s I’m Glad to Leave Behind

  1. Tang. When it comes to orange beverages, I’ll take Cheetos over this powdered stuff any day.
  2. Wooden Clogs. Seriously, who thought walking on blocks of wood all day was a good idea? We aren’t in Amsterdam!
  3. Vicky from The Love Boat. She sailed the seas without a care in the world, while I was stuck in school. Plus, she was just plain irritating!
  4. Window Fans. Those things were supposed to cool us down on hot summer nights but only ended up blowing warm air around. Bring on the air conditioning!
  5. Filmstrips. I can trace my headaches directly back to those tedious classroom sessions.
  6. Canned Pudding. Peeling off that lid was a thrill, but the sharp edges were a serious hazard. And let’s not forget how the pudding always got stuck in the ridge!
  7. Hee Haw. Fake corn and exaggerated accents – it’s time to retire that show for good.
  8. Wax Lips. Just… why?
  9. Enjoli Perfume. While my mom did bring home the bacon, I didn’t need a reminder that the perfume was all about gender roles.
  10. Lincoln Logs. Talk about stifling creativity; you could only build so many boring cabins with those few pieces.
  11. Andy Gibb. My childhood crush had a feathered hairstyle that now gives me the heebie-jeebies. Sorry, Andy, but that was too much man-cleavage!
  12. Hair Combs. Today, we’ve upgraded to flat irons for our styling needs.
  13. Captain Kangaroo. An angry man in an ill-fitting suit should not be around children.
  14. Owls. Those creepy eyes and their ability to swivel their heads are downright terrifying!
  15. Phone Cords. Talk about a tangled mess – and not in a fun way.
  16. Malibu Barbie’s Camper. This “camper” was more like a glorified minivan with a flimsy tent. And who thought a plastic sleeping bag was a good idea?
  17. Lipton Cup-a-Soup. Dried noodles and powdered broth? No thanks!
  18. Speidel Silver ID Bracelets. Wearing a blank piece of metal? That is not a fashion statement.
  19. Snap-Crotch Bodysuits. They were uncomfortable to sit in and a hassle when nature called.
  20. TV Tables. Why were they so high? They taught us to eat in front of the TV, which is a habit I’m glad to break.
