Had to watch the Olympic opening ceremonies last night, so I'm late on this.

1. What toys were popular when you were a kid?
Holy cow, this is hard to remember. I remember the year Cabbage Patch Kids were flying off the shelves. My Little Pony, toy cars, Barbies, EZ Bake ovens, GI Joes, Transformers, Mr. Potato Head.

2. What musicians were popular when you were a teenager?
I'll have to list who I liked/listened to: Counting Crows, Wallflowers, U2, Sting, Sheryl Crow, Sarah McLachlan, Guns & Roses, Nirvana, Pearl Jam. Grunge happened when I was in high school. Also, alternative. 90s country. Garth Brooks.

3.What unique personality traits do you think you have in common with others born around the same time as you?
I have absolutely no idea.

4. Do you think stereotypes about your generation are accurate?
I'm Gen X. Yeah, they're probably accurate.

What do you admire about other generations?
It's probably bad that I don't have an immediate answer to this.

Here are my answers:

1) Barbies, Bratz Dolls, Beanie Babies, GI Joe, Transformers, Easy Bake Oven, Lite-Brite and Betty Spaghetty.

2) Nirvana, Madonna, Mariah Carey, The Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, and The Backstreet Boys, along with many more.

3) Being stubborn, progressive, always willing to learn, technologically-inclined, and adaptable.

4) I do not think that stereotypes are ever accurate.

5) I do admire that they made it through so much change, and they do have the resilience passed down from one generation to the next.

This seems like such a surprisingly hard bunch of questions - I'd have no idea about most of them either, tbh.

It's been so long ago for me but I think barbies have been popular for a very long time, right?

Yeah, I think they've been popular since they were first made in (I think) the 50s.
