postheadericon 80’s RIP

dreamstime_Tech vintage

Is it just me or are the 80’s alive again, for the 10th time this decade? I mean seriously…do we really need to see people running around in 3 ring tube socks, tutu’s, leg warmers, and stretch pants? Didn’t we all get our fill way back when? Is it really necessary to torture our children with it? There must be someone in the fashion world sitting behind his curtain, microphone in hand, booming his altered godlike voice out onto the fashion elite convincing them that the 80’s are alive…all while hitting the mute button every time he starts to laugh. We’re not in Kansas anymore folks.

Sure, I remember being in junior high and high school thinking that things could not get any better than this. Of course I was wrong, and as I matured wisdom did start to creep in. I know better now and cannot help but wonder what happened to the creative genius that grew stronger and stronger as each generation found it’s way into the working world…until lately. Perhaps they were scarred in pre-school? Who knows…but as far as this chick’s concerned. 80’s RIP.

Gee. You mean you're not a fan of the big shoulder pads, socks that match the scrunchie in the hair and grooving to "She Blinded Me with Science"??
Huh.
It WAS a simpler time, though....I guess this is where the expression "what goes around comes around" comes from...at least, in fashion.
Thanks for the follow!

I'm a fan of things that are tangibly funny. Meaning, is it real...could it, or did it really happen. It's the reality of life and the connection to a moment that can bring on a type of unforgettable laughter.
