They Raised Us
Remember when the characters on TV basically raised us?
Mr. Clean kept the house spotless. Wendy served up burgers. The Noid tried to wreck our pizza. The Trix Rabbit spent decades getting denied breakfast. And Little Debbie? She made sure we had enough sugar in our bloodstream to see sounds.
Okay, technically Mr. Clean wasn’t breakfast. If you were eating that, we’ve probably identified why therapy had to finish the job.
The They Raised an Entire Generation Tee is a tribute to the advertising icons and mascots that were practically members of the family for anyone who grew up in the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s.
“THEY RAISED AN ENTIRE GENERATION.
THERAPY FINISHED THE JOB.”
They sold us cereal, snacks, burgers, pizza, cleaning products, and enough questionable life advice to shape an entire generation.
Perfect for Gen Xers who grew up on Saturday morning cartoons, commercial jingles permanently burned into their brains, and parents whose idea of supervision was yelling, “Be home when the streetlights come on.”
Back When commercials were entertainment, mascots were celebrities, and apparently Mr. Clean was part of the family too.
