For 80s kids, what are some of the most memorable things about the 80s. It can be good or bad but I'd like to hear and chat about stuff.

I was going through a box and found all of my kung fu movies. Kung fu movies were big in the 70s and 80s and I especially as a kid needed my daily dose of those poorly dubbed movies. Wu Tang Clan, The Five Deadly Venoms etc. I watched so much of that stuff,  I even had favorite fighters....Carter Wong, Ti Lung, Angela Mao, Polly Shang Kwan etc

Ahhhhh............then the music espcially new wave and glam metal. They don't make music like that anymore.

 
If your talking movies fine, but don't forget - shoulder pads, headbands(Olivia NJ), RAP, PC's, shitty keyboard synth music, Michael Jackson,  AC/DC Van Halen, Def Lep, Motley Crue, Police, Bon Jovi, Madonna, U2, Ozzy, Dio Metallica........

You guys fill in the rest.

Oh yeah and ludes for all you who missed out. If I could have one thing before I die......

 
Wasn't there some urban legend about Hugh Heffner stocking up on all the ludes because they were getting rid of them? I hear they are still around in Africa. (((Mandrax)))

Ahhhh................Van Halen....Ain't Talkin Bout Love..............was just jamming off of that.

The Human League

21 Jump Street

Crazy Mullets

Come on guys....get in here....lol

Mods.....this picture has been floating around on the net for years. If it's not okay to post, please remove.

Ah just what I'm talking about honey. But sorry Ain't Talkin Bout Love is from Van Halen 1 -  1978. Nice try but you're forgiven for your song choice.

 
I was a teenager in the 80's and I must say, they were the best! I was more into alternative like depeche mode, the cure and oingo boingo but also loved glam rock. Poison, Bon Jovi, Warrant and White Lion were a few I was/still am very fond of!

Ah, loved the big hair on everyone back then!

Yes, MTV was so awesome in the beginning. I used to record all my favorite videos on a VHS tape and then my mom got ahold of it and recorded an opera over it. Yeah I pretty much thought my life was over. And I was wishing horrible horrible things on her. We had it rough w out dvr's back then. Lol.

Yeah that was the late 70s wasn't it..lol I tend to blend late 70s and early 90s into the 80s.

 
Remember waiting for your favorite song on the radio so you could record it and then you end up either missing it or they never played it. Kids today got it easy... Lol

Voltron anyone?

I think I was in 9th grade. That was 1986 right? I remember watching the news coverage in class.

My best friend and I had these pants around 84 and I haven't been able to find them. They had fold down pockets at the waist and knee. Anyone remember them?

OMG.....I had a pair. Did they have a name. I can't remember but definitely had a pair. Now I'm gonna be on the hunt to see if I can find them. I also remember those cute little girlie baseball caps. All the chics were sporting them and I haven't seen em since.

85 or 86....one of those. I remember watching the explosion....very disturbing. And watching all of the astronauts smiling, waving, marching to board the Challenger, only to die minutes later....truly sad.

  3. crimp @ crimp: glad youre good buddy
  4. CalFresh @ CalFresh: Thanks everyone. My family and I are safe ATM. @mellowella thank you, but they cleaned me out. the shelves are empty but I'm hoping to call in some favors to restock ASAP. @xenxra I will reach out to set up a secure comms channel for us. Thanks again all. Yesterday was tough, but the support I've received from those I can share is with has been a Godsend.
  5. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Mad love to you and your family @CalFresh
  6. xenxra @ xenxra: @CalFresh if you are able to DM me (in a secure manner) the transactions associated with your btc theft, i can look into that part for you at least. i;m still 99% certain if the fbi didn't discard my leads they could have gotten some of my coins back and considering you had your coins stolen within the us, you have a much better chance of recovery than me. unless they went through mixers i could probably trace them myself.
  7. O @ Outsider9173: @CalFresh Haven't been here long but I want to wish you a fast recovery
  8. crimp @ crimp: neck spine surgery 8 ribs broke and scalp split onen about 6 inches
  9. crimp @ crimp: need some help dude im so injured its not even funny dm me for details just need someone willing to help me fust for a week
  10. CnC5 @ CnC5: @CalFresh if theres anything i can do brother lmk!
  11. M @ Mokachin0: @CalFresh email me I may be able to assist
  12. mellowella @ mellowella: I will always remember what you did for me the very first time I donated. I have been waiting to pay that kindness forward.
  13. mellowella @ mellowella: @CalFresh are you and your family safe? You’ve helped me in a pinch and were more than generous, and I’m sure you’ve helped others. How can we help you? Does it help at all if we completely buy out what’s left? Maybe that gives time and funds to restock and rebuild? I don’t want to break any rules here, but please let us know if we can do anything. All on your time of course.
  14. CalFresh @ CalFresh: thanks guys. I'm pulling together what I have left and leaning on the kindness of folks who support me to restock my shelves so that I can keep the lights on. Having my savings drained and my security vanish in an instant is paralyzing and the repercussions will only be realized in the coming days and weeks. for now I'm just trying to stay focused on the immediate priorities for ensuring this doesn't. cause cataclysmic failure to the life I've built for my children and I.
  15. H @ hotdog45: @CalFresh hey man if I can do anything, anything at all to help you get back on your feet let me know. Truly my heart goes out to you. I sent you an email also
  16. G @ gfunkster: @CalFresh im really sorry to hear that. But remember karma is real my man. They just fd their karma for a long time.
  17. Telp @ Telp: @CalFresh Thats so fucked man. Im glad you’re safe! And wishing you the best. What a bunch of scumbags.
  18. 0 @ 0osten: @CalFresh wow man.....I'm glad you're safe. Keep us updated, prayers for you bro
  19. CalFresh @ CalFresh: everyone here is safe. I was here alone.
  20. CalFresh @ CalFresh: friends, about a few hours ago my home was invaded by two punk thugs with guns. They stole everything I had in my home: cash, electronics, and mags, and forced me to transfer $20K in Bitcoin. it is a huge loss and I'm still reeling trying to figure out what i.can do to recover. For now I'm just trying to secure what little I have left so they can't take anything else. I'm telling you guys cause theres not many others I can tell. please bare w/ me, it'll take a few days to get back up and running
