If you grew up in the 1980s...you remember this - PART 2

I'm an 80's kid & I truly believe it was last great decade of our Nation. I thank God I experienced it!

At 47, I feel a little old today but I would never give back growing up in the 80’s!

80s was the last decade of real America. Life just hasn't been the same. Beautiful decade the 80s was

I think the 80s was the last decade where kids would cruise around their towns on Friday and Saturday nights. That was so much fun and a great way to meet people.

Who thinks we need a Part 3 of the 80s???? 🙏🏻✝️💯🤗

Graduated 1982, married 84, babies MID 80s. Life was good. Our world was different, better. God help us in today's world. 🙏

I was born in ‘73, so my entire growing up years (7-17) was the 1980s. Every single thing you mentioned I had, did, saw, or remembered. With fondness of a simpler time. Thank you for the memories.

Was helping clean out a house of a friend who's last parent had died recently. Among the stuff we were moving around we found her childhood Atari 2600, all the accessories and a good dozen games, all preserved in a box in pristine condition complete with manuals. Seems she had a Sega as well and played it instead of the Atari, and we found it too, it was well worn. She gifted me the entire 2600 collection for helping and I've very excited to have one once again. When it first came out, I mowed yards all summer to buy one only to have our house broke in to a week later and it was stolen. The nostalgia is again in my possession.

I was on vacation with my family to Florida in 86 and we went to see the liftoff of Challenger. My mother cried for a month.

Turned 10 in 1980. This brings things back

One of the defining features of the 80's was that a person really gained more personal choice because of technology. VCRs and video tapes, dual cassette 'boom boxes', more cable channels along with the Sony Walkman allowed you to watch or listen to what you wanted when you wanted.

I was a kid in the 80s and remember all of this. The movies, TV shows, cartoons, music, toys, and the Atari 2600. My first grade class watched the Challenger disaster live on TV. I remember Jordache jeans and high-top shoes, and circling what I wanted for Christmas in the Sear's catalogue. Great memories!

Awww man, how I miss the 80's. Yes cheezy but loved that decade. I graduated in 1989

You nailed the mall and of course those 80's fashions :) . I swear everything I wore had those huge shoulder pads hahaha

Oh the 80’s …these were truly the best years of my life and I can’t believe it was so long ago as it seems as it was just a few years ago to me. People always say I don’t look my age, I guess it’s because in my mind I still feel as though I never went forward and grew old mixed with all the fun that I had and still have as if we were still in that decade.. we were really lucky to have lived it as the best movies and bands came out then… I say, never grew old in your mind and always you will stay young…

So many good memories, Friday nights renting a VCR & movies. Outside playing with your friends. Riding bikes, it's not the same no more. Miss the 80s

Growing up 80’s and 90’s was a blast.

I was already an adult in my early 20s, thanks for the memories.

The 80's were unique in that, the culture grew with the kids.

I was born in 1976. The 80s were an awesome time to grow up. I would go back to the 80s and 90s if I could. They were the best. All the horror movies, action movies, sci-fi movies. Computers were taking off, that was a mistake. I had a Gemini game system. Atari was too expensive for my parents to afford. But then we got NES system. That was awesome. But our first computer was a Comodore 64. We had Donkey Kong and Pong. They were great times for sure.
