pretty much, the best thing about the 80's was the music (mostly the underground stuff) and the cartoons.

I liked the 80's.

pbradley 09.03.2008 09:36 PM

What the hell is all the 80's love now? Is this the logical progression of all the 70's love?

I don't like any decade, honestly, but all I was around for was the 90's and that one sucked shit, too.

atari 2600 09.03.2008 09:37 PM

...erm, speaking of sucking shit...

pbradley 09.03.2008 09:46 PM

Am I getting in the way of your selective nostalgia? Sorry.

Wouldn't I need to want to be punk before I could be called a pseudo-punk?

It's not nostalgia, I'm a product of the 90s.
I just needed an excuse to post those first 2 videos!

The 80's gave us this monstrosity, let us not forget:

 

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 09.05.2008 12:02 PM

The 80's were a crazy time. . .
actors putting out albums. . .
meaningless hair metal. . .
a crazy republican president. . .
really good Batman movie with the Joker towards the end of the decade. . .



























































Oh wait. . .
