      @cactusjackNV 7 місяців тому +7

      The term Gen X didn't exist in the 80s. In fact even though I am of that generation, I refuse to accept the marketing moniker. In addition Gen X doesn't mean anything while the Baby Boomer generation had a reason to be named. We are post boomers, let's leave it at that.

    The '80s, when commercials seemed upbeat, happier yet more laid back, with that bright yet soft lighting and swinging between pastels and neon colors. Nobody as annoying as Flo from Progressive or Doug from Liberty Mutual.

    Didn't know anybody was putting pitas on their menus in the 80s. I definitely remember pitas becoming this fad thing in the late 90s.
    7:30 - 7:58 I'm going to bake a potato just so I can be rid of those human legged abominations.
    It's kind of wild to me that it wasn't that long ago when it wasn't common knowledge that nicotine is indeed addictive and cigarettes are really, really bad for you.
    Now I'm wondering if they "saved" that ice skating rink.
