What a bunch of old losers in this thread, I'm 35.  :'(
Luckily, thanks to our chiseled physiques and god-like attractiveness, we still look like 21.  ;D

Fashion-wise, the 80's were brutal. Hair and clothing styles were abysmal to say the least. The funny thing is when you live in that moment, in that era, it felt like the cool thing to wear and look like.

I'm only 34 but I lived my middle and early high school years in the 80's. Asking somebody like my older brother and uncles and they'll tell you it was the decade of FUN. Drugs, like cocaine especially, were hugely popular.

The 90's were fun too. Things advanced so rapidly with technological advancements in communication and data availibilty via internet, media outlets such as reality shows, etc.

I prefer the 90's era only because of my age. I'm sure most people 10 years oldr would prefer the 80's for sure.

The 'we' was meant as a majestic 'we'.  ;D

When I was 21, I was chubby and weighed about 10lb less.

I will always miss the '80's, lame as fashions were...

Kick ass rock and metal; so many beloved movies and star vehicles; everybody was happy and generally feelin' good; girls were cooler and less pieces of selfish shit; Reagan ran everything like a God damn pimp and a real man; economy was rockin' - and not just dot-commers and the investor class, everybody made more in the '80's; bodybuilding was cool and not weird; martial arts were still blowin' up from the '70's; great sports rivalries and legends, more than most decades; and we all thought would live forever, and never wanted it to end... 

Good post.

I was only a kid through most of the 80's and entered into my teenage years in the 90's - can't think of anything good about the 90's at all.
