Blurgh. I wasn't a fan of the 80s the first time I lived through them.
A-fucking-men!
The 80's was only fun for the people who didn't have to witness it.
Seriously. The only people who say this had no contact with the '70s.
The '80s were a rock'n'roll funky drug party compared to the 1970s.
Indeed. I'm just glad the 70's revival is winding up, so I can stop looking at people younger than me and thinking "You all look just like my Mom's tacky barfly friends from 1978"

SERIOUSLY. I mean, I get being attached to the times you grew up in. There will always be a spot in my heart for flannel and heavy boots. But man, offering a 13-year-old kid a blunt while your husband leers at my mom and talks about free love is not the grown-up thing to do.

It's kind of funny. We children of the 90's don't really have the nostalgic "Ohh, I wanna dress like/relive that decade." And while the music kicked everyone's ass (for a few years, anyway, before Cobain died and everyone else was bought by Walmart), nobody really wants to go back to the all-flannel-and-unwashed-hair look.
For a minute I was with you but on second thought, too much hair, Shag carpeting, HUGE vans with carpeting, BUT I will still take a late 60's Muscle car and a Cheech and Chong movie.
80's fashion comes back every few years.
And guess what? If you know what you are doing, a permanent wave doesn't have to look "80's". And not only lazy women get them.
