They Never Called My Name On Romper Room

And forty years later I'm still devastated by it.

by Anonymousreply 38March 1, 2018 8:38 AM

Is that you, OP, the kid in the back by the picture board, partially hidden by the bog-headed bully kid? You look shy.

My name was Michelob and they never called my name

My name was never called either. They just called the most generic ordinary names. I know someone that was on it once. The mirror was just hollow of course, but he couldn’t keep quiet about it. He was crushed and felt ripped off by television trickery. They had to ask him to hush up, but it doesn’t sound like he did. I do know he wasn’t asked to come back.

Same op and my name is pretty ordinary

She never called my name, but did show a drawing I had sent in and it had my name printed on it.

The magic mirror sensed you didn't believe OP!

She never called mine either.🎩🐰💌 📺I haven't thought about her in decades; thanks for the laugh!

Because Miss Nancy knew you were a whore OP. Miss Nancy didn't acknowledge whores.

No, she would constantly call out the names of all the Darfur Orphans, it was easy she's say "and I see Mo-Hammet"

by Anonymousreply 14February 28, 2018 3:02 PM

Miss Nancy should make a movie about you, R14. It would be called "Call Me By Your Name."

by Anonymousreply 15February 28, 2018 3:28 PM

OP was obviously a "Don't Bee."

Was this before or after Miss Sherri's abortion?

wow that's actually clever

They did call me by your name on Romper Room. And the peach was tasty.

by Anonymousreply 20February 28, 2018 8:42 PM

Well, they called my name because my mother wrote to the show with my name, which was slightly unusual.

by Anonymousreply 21February 28, 2018 9:02 PM

Same experience as r21 -- at the time, I thought my mother had magical powers.

by Anonymousreply 22February 28, 2018 9:59 PM

You would think that bitch Miss Jean could say "Michael" at least once a month, but NOooooo....never heard my name. I think they had a Protestant bias or something. There were plenty of Williams, and James, and Johns, and Marks.

by Anonymousreply 23February 28, 2018 10:02 PM

They only called your name if you wrote in to the Doo Bee.

by Anonymousreply 24February 28, 2018 10:02 PM

Miss Louise had a spell on me because I made my parents buy every product they sold. I had the Romper Stompers, I had the punching ball and whatever other crap they were shilling, I made my parents buy it. Actually, I don't think my parents bought it. I think when my grandparents came to visit, they bought it because they spoiled us rotten.

by Anonymousreply 25February 28, 2018 10:06 PM

Perhaps Ms. Sherri thought you'd been aborted?

I was so in love with Miss Louise R25

She once did a personal appearance near where we lived & my mom actually drove us over - but it was such a mob scene we didn’t even get out of the car.

I. Was. Crushed.

Can you imagine Romper Room today. "I see Tucker and Turner and Preston and Madysyn and........"

That's raciss.

"I see Shaniqua and Shalonda and Mohammed and Kunta Kinte."

She would say my name every once in a while - but I could tell it was only with 1 'g' at the end.

OH MY GOD! My name never made it on that show either!!

by Anonymousreply 34March 1, 2018 3:31 AM

My name was never picked either and I was a Doo-Bee, and a real good Doo-Bee at that. I was never a Don't Bee. Ever. I didn't know you had to sign up with the Doo-Bee. All these years of wondering WHY, Why couldn't my common catholic white name have been called.

by Anonymousreply 35March 1, 2018 6:09 AM

r35 Because to this day, you haven't been able to figure out that it's DO-Bee, not DOO-Bee.
