Anyone else have one? I'm watching mine right now. It's not original, but I think it came from Spencer's in 1989 or so-my parents bought it for me. They still make them, but they look kinda flimsy. I didn't know if people still appreciated them or if its a novelty for teens now. I love mine.

I have a glitter wizard lamp thing that I like watching when I'm writing sometimes. My father had an actual lava lamp, but I'm not sure where it went.

My son got one about two years ago from John's Incredible Pizza (which is like a Chuck E Cheese for bigger kids). He worked all day to get the 1900 tickets it cost. He still likes turning it on and watching it...um...bubble?...erupt?...whatever the heck those things do.

I don't think I've turned mine on in about 5 years.

I had one. But after being on for a while it became hotter than the Sun, so I switched it off and never used it again.

I drank a lava lamp once. I was violently sick afterwards and the vomit slowly floated up to the ceiling.

I love the look of them, but for how damned hot they get, I've always been scared that they're one misplaced elbow away from setting the house on fire.

I have two I got with Camel cash back in 96. The only camel stuff on them was a tiny sticker on the bottom. So I removed them. I haven't plugged either in in years. But once I get moved and have my collection room again them and my huge black light will be hooked up again.

Had one in the mid-80s. They're pretty cool.

I've had one for about fourteen years now. Got it as a Christmas present. I used it fairly often my senior year of high school listening to the Opie and Anthony show (original syndication run, before being fired for the "Sex for Sam" stunt). I probably did this because there is obviously no visual stimulation while listening to a radio show, which might explain why I did this. I also turn it on while listening to comedy albums for the same reason.

Have one right next to my monitor. Don't use it much. I think I've had it for at least 10 years now. Probably more than that even.

They're awesome, but yeah, they run REAL hot. Haven't had one for years, but I'd be open to it, it'd just be a matter of finding safe shelf space for it.
