No smartphones and great style.
I'm vibing it.

Pure nostalgia 🧡🫡✨️
Skinny with big hair
#80s
Brings back great memories, man 👍👏
Everybody was skinny
Everybody was reasonably healthy!
haha... no
Not everyone, but there was usually one far kid in class… my graduating class in 1987 had about 500 kids in it. Maybe 5-10% would be considered overweight or maybe chubby by today’s standards, but the only morbidly obese kid was named Jeff H. At about 6’ tall he was probably 325-350.
Times have sure changed, especially in the big cities. Since we moved to a small town, most of the kids are farm kids and from what I can see are overall much more active and in better shape than the city kids I always saw 4 years ago. More responsible too! Just my observations, YMMV ;-)
Wow this hit me right in the feels
What a lost age
Will we ever go back?
In many small ways we already have! So many of my fellow 90s kids and much younger love 80s culture
That's not going back.
You can never go back.
Only in your heart.
Its not the culture, it was much more than that. It was a time of hope and some normalcy.
Only those that lived it understand what I'm trying to say...those feels cannot be transported or revived the same way now. And it only makes sense.
I am grateful to have enjoyed some pieces of heaven during that decade.
Heaven is here, if you want it.
Nothing has changed except that now everyone has a smartphone.
This time period feels so unreal

Distinctly remember my dad (who is 66 now) constantly complaining how expensive everything was in those days too. He had no idea why it was all happening.
My dad also used to tell me often to shoot for a job that pays “$50,000 a year” and I’d be comfortable lmao
LMAO. This is a good example of “you can’t imagine how much worse it can get” 😂
Exactly😂
And really, it’s going to get much, much worse. Travel has given me glimpses into the future. In Argentina the bills are denominated in 1000’s and anything less is considered coinage. They literally have no coins.
Mexico is in between Argentina and the U.S. in its fiat implosion.
It’s exactly where the rest of the world is headed (minus Bitcoiner’s). Except it’ll just be uber-cuck “credits” on the phone. Cannot wait to see the EU hyperinflation token launch and get completely destroyed in short order.
Yeah I heard in places like that, the actual metal of the coins are worth more than the paper currency so they are out of circulation lmao but hey no one told them to bury their heads in the sand 🤷♂️
The Harvard tuition is per year? 👀
I don’t think so but not sure
Average income was quite low, what is it today in US?
It looks like another world. 😅🤦♂️
The health, joy, and aspirations. All world looked at the America and was getting inspired.
