I found my favorite TV ad from when I was a toddler.

I'd go absolutely bananas when this showed:

1. I have NO idea what that was about, but the stop-animation was great!

4. I think it was a commercial for matches. Rough translation: "Sure Light"

"Fiat" -- implying faithful
"Lux" -- light

[surrealAmerican]

6. The more usual translation of "Fiat Lux" ...

... is "let there be light".

7. Well, that is true ...

2. I remember the day I realized there were rich kids out there somewhere...

3. Yeah, I had TWO GI Joe Aircraft Carriers....

Yeah, right. :sarcasm:

I know what you're talking about.

My first bike was a gift from a family friend with more money than my single parent w/ grandma household.

A blue girl's bike from a police auction.

I'm a boy, I didn't care, I was ecstatic.

Fuck wealth, I wouldn't trade my humble upbringing for anything.

:patriot:

8. I wanted toys that boys had.

And dolls too. I liked race car tracks and trains.

9. Let's be honest

The GI Joe aircraft carrier is... wait for it... basically a dollhouse. :D

10. It's true. nt
