The 80s

The 80s were cool times, no smartphones,no internet and no social media. Singers and rappers were actually talented and talked about meaningful shit in their songs,not the classless,mediocre,materialistic stuff they talk about now.

If you had a TV bigger than like 26" you were rich. The television in the spare bedroom was an 8" black and white. You did not have a remote control, and if you did it was wired to the television with three buttons on it. But generally if you were changing the channel you were getting up. You stole paid cable stations by sliding the cardboard channel listing into the top of the box. When you left the house you were OUT. People went outside to play. Eddie Murphy was the funniest man alive. Michael Jackson was a baller. Jean jackets were cool. Huge hair was cool. You did reports for school using the 1978 Encyclopedia Britannicas in your basement.
