I hated the fucking 80's

[soldierant]

73. I'm a tail end Silent Generation but identify

with Boomers - and I honestly don't even know what you are talking about. I spent the 80s in a small college town, where apparently no one cared about fashion - I know I never have except historically (I've dabbled in theatrical costuming). I've never listened to any music but classical on a regular basis, although I try to keep up intellectually. Like one of the other commenters here, the 80s was when i met, fell in live with , and married my spouse (husband) and after 41 years and some months we are still in love, so there's that. Of course Reagan was godawful (and corrupt) and the Me culture is even worse but Reagan was nowhere near as bad as Trump**(*), who, to the extent he is Reagan, is massively on steroids.

Tim Walz has been quoted as having said "Mind your own biscuits and life will be gravy." I guess that's how I got through the 80's.
