Do y'all nikkas remember the 80s

[Doobie Doo]

Born in 81. I'm and cool with it.


From what I remember:

Michael Jackson was God

Cosby ran shyt

You couldnt fukk with the cartoons/toys combination. Metal Transformers toys, shyt ton of GI Joe stuff, M.A.S.K. (look it up...shyt was fire), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

In fact, Cartoons were waaaaay better than any of the shyt you see now.

Nintendo changed everything.

Crack almost destroyed a generation of Black people. Me and my mom used to live in the PJ's, and looking back with adult eyes, I remember fiends hanging around the block and a bunch of my friends dads just not being seen again.

I was born in 81, too. You left out New Coke, Max Headroom and He Man

80's>>>>*

80's was the last good decade.
Mike Tyson was that dude.
Music was on another level.
New technology was starting to take off.

 

[Kiyoshi-Dono]

No such thing as pc outrage..
Every show/movie (even cartoons) had scenes..
The music, natural women
Big asses where definitely status unless you were black..
Reagan fukking up everything and that puppet ass "Bring down that wall" speech..
Jeri Curls with the tail
Crack
Benny hill
Tv actually going off at 12-1am
Ron propill
Cable didn't have a remote instead you had a big box with clunky buttons..
Actually being able to play outside..
Going to the cool cup lady house
Michael Jackson turning into a robot
Actual weather changes..
Miss those days

Dudes were wearing spandex and shyt breh

Including black dudes.

[Surreal]

Winters were winters..everywhere
Sock Hops in elementary school
Cut off jeans as shorts in the summer
Nothing was the same after the Summer Olympics in LA in 84..after that crack and coke was everywhere
Air Force IIs and satin jackets
Hunching girls..Gooding
Candy houses
Ect
