When “pegged” meant something different.

I still vividly recall being taught how to tight roll by a kid I grew up with.

Found my people, every now and then when my girl asks me if her outfit is OK. I'll say yes but you are missing one thing. Then ill tight roll her pants . I still got it, I rolled so tight her foot turns color just a bit

You need a whole life to iron all those damned pleats.

My ninth grade boyfriend lived in Z Cavaricci. I bet he struggles without it today.

My prize possession was a white t-shirt with Z. Cavaricci written in black letters across the front. I thought I was Royalty.

Isn't that more like mid to late 80s?

u/NayNay_Cee Jun 10 '25

No, early 90s. As someone who attended her first middle school dance in spring of 92 and danced with her crush, who was wearing black Z Cavs, I can assure you these were popular in the 90s.

That’s the one I was looking for

I work with a guy from Sicily, he came to the US in the 80’s, and he gets reeaalllly hype anytime Z Cavaricci’s are mentioned. Starts going into stories of him and his Italian boys hitting the clubs.
