Quinton does a post every Thursday called “Throwback Thursday.” Here is an example and another example . In these posts he shows old pictures of himself when he was young. Usually he is keeping it real in the playground or Stylin’ and ‘profilin’ with his baseball cap to the side.
While Q was hangin’ with the boys on Sesame Street, I was busy being a lady’s man. This was me in middle school (circa 1990). I remember I was going on a hot date with a girl named Traci. I was sporting the Z Cavaricci pants with the bottoms pinch rolled, silk shirt and Dockers dress shoes. I was also rocking the Macgyver feathered hair. I was the bomb back then. I even had the supermarket flowers to impress the hottie.
Note: I think she dumped me after that date but no worries because there were other ladies taking numbers for this hottie.
Ladies, you will need to take a number and wait in line for this hottie!! |
BAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! WELL DONE BROTHER! Thanks for the shout out. So now I know where all the ladies were back then while I was G'd-up-from-the-feet-up. Apparently I had the wrong approach. You are suave in this pic my man…I think I may now have a crush on you. And don't worry...that girl will forever remember you as “The One That Got Away”.
ReplyDelete@Quinton J: "G'd-up-from-the-feet-up" What the heck does that mean? LOL
ReplyDelete"I think I may now have a crush on you" Truly Scary! Q has a Man-Crush. I'm telling your wife.
I don't think Traci was the same after she realized what she had done. Her life was in ruins after that.

@Quinton J: "Thanks for the shout out." Just sharing the love brother. :-)
ReplyDeleteQ is always having man-crushes (see Andrew at Running Man Wannabe). Or maybe it's the reverse. Nice take on the throwback post.
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge fan of the "popped collar"..nice!!
ReplyDeleteLOL...I don't even know what that means...stuff just comes out. Gotta stop watching so much MTV. I think I saw Traci on Cops last week.
ReplyDeleteOh...and I love how you had no tolerance for socks back then. Even with those loafers. That’s just bad ass.
ReplyDeleteEat your heart out Traci! Looking Sweet! Love the feathered mullett. Good stuff.
ReplyDeleteQuinton must be scared and/or intimidated. He has not posted his weekly Throwback today.
ReplyDelete@Sam: The pop collar was so 80s. This was the 90s. Mc Hammer and Vanilla Ice.
@Adrienne: I prefer to call it the Macgyver. Mullets sound so southern rockish. :-)
Stop.
ReplyDeleteHammer time.
Is sam's last name really "hardman"?
ReplyDelete@EMZ:
ReplyDelete"Stop collaborate and listen
Ice is back with my brand new invention"

Hardman...that's a hard name to live up to.
ReplyDeleteOK..sorry....
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
The hair! What were you thinking! ;)
@Silly Girl: LOL. I was like 12-13 years old. We all looked dumb back then. Your too young to know feathered hair and parachute pants. It was cool back then. One day in 20 years you will look at your pink camo running skirt and say "what was I thinking". LOL.
ReplyDeleteLooking back, Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer were silly but I guarantee everyone my age loved them at one point and can still sing every word of the "Ice Ice Baby" and "Hammer Time". :-)
Emz with the Hammer Time comment just killed me.
ReplyDeleteThis has made my Friday So much better! To hell with the sock-less loafer look: posting that picture *at all* is badass! :D
ReplyDeleteWow. AWESOME!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteniiiiice. :)
ReplyDeleteHa, love it! I need to find a scanner...Throwback Thursday is a great idea! (except that well, now everyone has these sah-weet photos of you!)
