well, is it the music? the fashion? tv series? toys? celebrities?
Heck yea it was the toys, music.......eh on the clothes hahah. Some of my favorite internet stations are 80's new wave music.
Kids focused their energy on the culture etc because they werent being distracted by the above mentioned electronic devices. Im not putting down tech. But kids growing up now will define their decade with selfies and the video games they played, not how they stuffed 10 firecrackers into a model airplane and launched it off the roof or turn a couple of 2X4's into a jump.
My friends were real, not an Avatar on a screen. You could trade a centerfold for an action figure or make a fort.
Is this the part where I say get off my lawn hahahah.
