When I was 13, I unsuccessfully lobbied my dad to buy me Bugle Boy clothes from Merry-Go-Round. The closest I got was a pair of knock-off parachute pants. This Bugle Boy TV commercial from 1984 makes me grateful that I was quickly distracted by the Dead Kennedys and The Damned. (via r/ObscureMedia)
