The two main characters in the TV show "Psych" sure love the 80s.

I grew up in the 90's so I'll go with that. I think its pretty much whatever decade you grew up in is what you have the best memories of

i am watching The Karate Kid 1984 for the 3rd time this week. i never get tired of this movie. the nostalgia, action, music everything reminds me of a better time in the 80s. life was simply simpler and better. im pumped andlifting weights now because of this movie.

The 80's had the worst culture of any decade of the last 50 years. All the music in this thread is shit.

For some reason that song screams 80s to me.

Agreed. I don't know how anyone could have lived in the 80s and retain any fond memories of it. Other than Nintendo the 80s were awful. Movies, music, style.

Holy fvck the lead singer for the Bangles is smoking still.

damn, she looks awesome. she must have been very young when they had those hits.

We all have our favorite decade but I have to agree with the OP ... the 80s were my favorite as well. So many great things happened to me in the 80s that I can't describe them in this post.

Didn't MTV actually play music videos in the 80s?

 

[BladeVenom]

Take one look as ascii porn, and tell me how you could miss the 80's.

 

[Fingolfin269]

I miss the 80s and the early 90s for a different reason than what most are discussing in here. It was a time when if you wanted to have fun you pretty much had to go outside. You rode around on bikes with the neighborhood kids from sun up to sun down, maybe hopping off at some point to play football or basketball or go exploring in the woods, etc. etc.

Don't get me wrong, I love the tech world we live in now too but really miss the more 'personal' world I grew up in too.

Yep, good points. When I was a kid in the early 80s, I did play video games but it was balanced with many other things -- playing with Star Wars toys, playing sports, exploring the area on our bikes, etc. These kids nowadays are missing out on so much. God damn, I sound like an old man.

I love these threads. Here is one from what I think is the most underrated band of the 80's.
