You needed to be on drugs to live in the 80s.


You definitely needed it to watch a show about the 80s.One of the worst decades. AIDS,war on drugs beginning and so forth.

Of course you did because you could do drugs without going to jail for years like today.

I remember the 80s as a kid, had a great time! Casey Casem (spelling his name right?), mtv when it played music videos, Regan, Transformers (when they were cool), Atari and Nintendo, Small Wonder, Freddy, new wave, Adam Curry, Rick Dees and the weekely top 40... I could go on!,

Of course I am talking about the pop culture side of things from a kids point of view.

The phrase is “hear! Hear!,” but you are uneducated, lazy, or both.”

“Here, here” is how you call your dog.

Definitely an awesome decade, but was the start of the end for the American middle class, as well the ramping up of the disasterous drug war (which also spirals off into the rapid increase of illegal immigration, to get out of a country now taken over by wealthy drug lords, etc.) Not to mention that's when the moral authority really became the main stream, and have been ever since. A good decade in film, somewhat in music, for pop culture, etc. But in terms of politics, one of the worst in American history.

Yep, and I'm going back! All I need is some plutonium or a bolt of lightning.

The eighties were great. Anybody who says otherwise obviously never lived during them and is an idiot...

Wow, people trolled like shit before IMDB killed the message boards. LOL

reply

Lol yup but it was still entertaining

reply

Probably the worst women's hairstyles ever, but other than that it was a good decade. Everything wasn't political, everybody didn't hate everybody else, and having a sense of humor didn't get you cancelled.

reply

The 80's weren't as good as the 70's, but they were better than now. Now is the worst ever. Decades after the 90's have sucked big time.

reply

The 90's was great, best time for music. The 2000's is way worse, the internet and IRC killed individuality and creativity.

reply

1984 was probably the favorite year of my life.

reply

1993 was the summer of love. RIP, the 90's.
