I'm a child of the 80s so I remember a bunch of the ones already mentioned.
My mom says something that used to crack me up when I was a kid...
"Heavens to Murgatroyd!!!"
Still don't know what it means but usually it followed one of us kids doing something incredibly stupid or dense.

You just need a child of the 60s to let you know that's Snagglepuss:

Thanks TR! I found that it was Snagglepuss when I googled to find the correct spelling (I'm a nerd like that) but don't know much else about it.

I remember Snagglepuss. I think he still comes on Boomerang or TV Land every once in a while.

I loved Snagglepuss!
Please tell me I'm not the only one who watches Dancing With the Stars and giggles everytime they introduce Peta Murgatroyd. She's an amazing dancer and I love her, but I always hear "heavens to murgatroyd!" in Snagglepuss's voice.

The 80's were like totally bitchin. :)
They were the bomb!
I remember the 70's were cold-blooded.
And of course, everything was cool and still is!
Right on!!
