actually saw that movie once as a child. It is imprinted on my mind and you can in fact see her bush as she jumps out of bed. That is the only part of the movie I remember. I don't even know who she is bed with or why she jumps up.

I watched it just a few weeks ago just for that scene. Funny how it is still impressed in my mind that you could see her bush.

didn't you ever cut yourself on one of those? holy shit that hurt

I don't blame them. Imagine the hundreds of snapping sounds you'd hear at recess.
They banned POGS too. Although those were for kids growing up in the early 90's.
Who could forget 'Breakin' the movie and the dancing.

Speaking of bannned

They actually have new ones now.
