Why is Adam wearing a Garbage Pail Kids T-shirt?

He likes them

But why? It's considered one of the worst movies ever, and Adam loves movies, and I would think he would have a good taste in movies, but then again, since he's a movie lover he may like all movies, good or bad. But, he's like 15 now. Maybe the show's just trying to show how funny and nerdy he is, idk.

It was also a tv show and comic book I believe. He has mentioned several times he is a Garbage Pail Kids fan

Oh yeah true, it may not be the movie he's into. In one episode, like the early seasons, Adam offers his big brother Barry all his Garbage Pail Kids card collectibles.

Adam: They'll be worth a million dollars one day
Narrator: They're not

Yeah. I actually enjoyed the movie myself.

Oh my... Ok then

But I was about Adams age when I saw it too.

Haha ok. It's ok, it's not the worst thing if you like it, I haven't actually seen it, but I've seen clips of it, and that was enough for me. Lol

You may not be old enough to remember, but those cards were HUGE during that time. I mean...fricking HUGE. They were the natural response to the backlash the world felt towards the Cabbage Patch dolls. It was....weird.

Remember those were the days when singing fruit had they own albums and a pit bull was a sought after beer spokes...man....person....thing....

I admit, I love 80s culture, pretty much everything about it, the movies, styles, TV shows, music, and technology. I'm still learning a lot about it. I'd much rather be there than here.

And wow, didn't know they were so popular
