I definitely remember the Banana Splits, although as time goes by, you never remember that you forgot them, until now.

I remember when I started working professionally older people would reminisce about previous decades stuff I never knew about, and they would always say it was before my time. Well, now I can do it now.

To properly set the context, the Banana Splits were on a grainy tv that was always going out with a bulb your dad had to go to Radio Shack to test and find a replacement. Radio Shack would ALWAYS find a replacement.
