Both Lego are for older builders, and are parts-intense.

Both are great fun, but I don't remember having to shift the wheels on my old roller skates the way you have to on 'blades.

Eh, horny teens need movies too.

White rappers! eminem is way better and hotter though.

Both are gender-bender singers, popular in their heyday.

Both belt their heads off. Both incredibly talented and divas for the history books. Just as "Saving All My Love for You" and then "How Will I Know" catapulted Houston into success, "Vision of Love" was Carey's fame-maker, one of the most successful debuts in history. Also, "I Will Always Love You" and "One Sweet Day" are the same drawn-out, over-produced, melodramatic song.

Sex driven teen comedy!

Group excerise to music.

They both play music and fit in your pocket.

Both are TV sitcoms that were based around family life in those times.

All boobs/no buns vs. all buns/no uns; neither can sing worth a damn, but holy crap were/are they hot!

The one had surfboards and wetsuits and the other had suped up Honda Civics and nitrous but it's the same movie.

Walkmans were the 80's cassete players, with headphones, to the 90's portable CD players, with smaller headphones!

Green Day caught on the most in the 00s, but the songs from "American Idiot" wouldn't really be out of place on a Cure record.

In the 80s, you had to have skin tight jeans with narrow legs, usually made of stretchy denim; the legs were sometimes so narrow that they had zippers at the cuffs because that was the only way you could get them on over your feet. In the 90s, the trend started for skin tight bell-bottom jeans, sometimes made of stretchy denim and cut low at the waist so girls could show off their thongs/belly button piercings/back tattoos.

We both had color, but you could never get that really good ear cringing squeal on a whiteboard. Plus you never got to dust the erasers.

It was wild and crazy like the girl from The Goonies. Now its nice and straight, though some people overdo it.

Word processor!

Both cute, cuddly and a little scary.

Non-phyisical communication.

GPK Still rule!

Both were ways to try to meet new people. Both were controversial and dangerous.

Both girls would pass for sisters!

Both are addictive football games and are great when played with some obnoxious loudmouth.

Although their musical stylings are quite different, their endorsement deals are not. Paula had a soft drink deal and performed with Frank Sinatra in her soda ad. Christina had a deal with Coke. Paula was the frontwomen for a shoe company(Reebok I think?), much like Christina hawks Sketcher's today.

Both were teenage pop music princesses. Each of these ladies were the top young female performers of their day, and each made loads of young kids smell good.

All of these ladies from the 80's helped blaze the way for the women of today. Debbie Gibson and Tiffany helped the teenager's of today by carving out a path for young girls in their hey-day. Debbie Gibson wrote, produced and performed her own music, much like how girls like Christina and Ashlee at least write their own material. Debbie also performed choreographed dances, much like Britney does today. Paula Abdul, of course, was the leader of the choreography craze, which is similar to J-Lo and Beyonce. Cyndi Lauper and Madonna were trailblazers as far as statements and fashion: Hence Ashlee and Christina. Janet=Beyonce, need we say more? All of the females of today have taken something from the ladies of the 80's.

Jackie Joker was an unfunny comic book about a boy magician/comedian. It was drawn by the same folks responsible for the unfunny "Casper The Friendly Ghost" and "Wendy The Witch" comic books.

You can watch movies, but with more tecnology.

just like the Backstreet Boys...N Sync was right up there with the Boys from Boston!

Panini stickers ruled!

Teletext won!!!

Possibly interchangable!

At least they didn't make that ridiculous noise in the 80's!!!

(Sort of!)

Both started dating older women, don't be surprised if our beloved Kelso starts dating Apple (Gwinneth Paltrow's baby) in few years!

They have the same hypnotizing power over girls, and a must-have for X-mas!

Simple movies, converted into religion among geeks.

Actresses named Moore who were in daytime soap operas in the 80s. (Julianne in "As The World Turns, Demi in "General Hospital".)

Redheaded teen actresses.

Still the same, but just a SLIGHT difference.

Sucessful female groups. Not exactly the best comparison!

Both so-so singers, great dancers, danced in Janet Jackson's videos, who knows some years from now J.Lo maybe hosting a reality TV show.

I think they were the most pwoerfull console of their time.

They invoke similar attitudes in the 'underground' and the styles of dress are remarkably similar... after a decade, people are still angry, and they still love dudes who scream about death. Nice!

Final Fantasy started on the NES/Famicom and continues on the PlayStation.

Now is he first time everyone wants to say 'mine's the smallest!'

I thought the most popular show in the 80's was Miami Vice it did create that whole Miami club scene thing in the mid to late 80's.

Yay for depressing British bands!!!!!

Mortal Kombat= Double dragon

Double the fun. She's got some great songs though.

Back when when macking was said when kids kissed, nowadays it's called messing,

Come to think of it they're both pretty hot but I like Toni Basil better, "Hey Mickey!"

Undoubtly the eighties were better in car fashion. Do you remember the beautiful blue XR3i that owns Pierce Brosnan in 1987 movie "The Fourth Protocol"

And, mind you, Myst was made entirely on Macintoshes. There's no such thing as a rotten Apple!

Both are about children who go off to private school to learn about how to become witches and wizards.

Although Pay-Per-View started in the mid-80s, closed-circuit TV was what dominated special events programming in the first half of the 80s.

Two series of wars in two different parts of the world that helped define their respective decades.

Both are tall blondes who sing country music. The only notable difference: Jackson is a Southerner by nature; Schnieder just played one on TV.

The Sexiest muscle cars.

Some advantages of DirecTV over the large satellite dish, such as the Houston Tracker: 1. DirecTV dish is small enough to mount on the roof of your house. 2. You can surf DirecTV without having to rotate the dish and switching satellites. 3. DirecTV is a lot less likely to be struck by lightning than a large dish.

Two lovably dorky gents who both need to see a tailor (Lloyd in the orange tux, Pee-Wee with the gray suit)and visit a styling parlor (Lloyd's bowl haircut vs Pee-Wee's goofy crew cut. Both Pee-Wee and the Lloyd-meister had run ins with big bullies (Lloyd tangled with Sea Bass while Pee-We locked horns with Francis) and went on cross-country trips (Lloyd went to take Mary her briefcase while Pee-Wee went to search for his bike. Both boys also had a penchant for goofy oversized grooming aids (Pee-Wee's giant toothbrush versus the electric sander for Lloyd's pedicure) Nuff said.

Both were called the car of the future, and both sold about the same: only a few thousand.

Although Stuckey's is still around, their popularity began to wane as the 90s rolled around. You could tell it by the way some locations began closing their doors.

As far as I can remember, the minivan was introduced sometime in the 80s. However, into at least the early 80s, the station wagon was still what it was all about in regards to family travel.

The Polaner All-Fruit commercial actually debuted near the end of the 80s, but it continued to air off and on throughout the 90s. So it is safe to say that Polaner All-Fruit was basically a 90s commercial.

Easylink was an electronic mail program that ran from MS DOS and used by a lot of businesses in the 80s. Messages were transmitted by use of Telex or TWX numbers.

The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders remain without a doubt the most popular group of young ladies in the world. And although the Hooters Restaurant chain started in 1983, the Hooters Girls didn't become famous until the 90s. In fact, the Hooters Girls would probably come in a close second to the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders in popularity, above all those other famous cheerleading squads.

Although the BBS still exists on the internet as forums and messageboards, it is the best computer use of a modem in the 80's.

Getting smaller and smaller every 10 years. Think of it, what will the world think of next?!

Ya like how he came full circle? LOL.
