HILARIOUS 80s MEMORIES

FUNNY MEMORIES FROM THE 80s

The first personal computers. We did not have one, but I had a few friends who had Commodore 64s or Vic 20s or MacIntosh Apple Computers! I remember those early games, heck that's how everyone learned anything about The Oregon Trail. We learned new words like DYSENTERY that we had to look it up in a paper dictionary.

Atari was huge too. It was a revolutionary idea to have an arcade game at home, on your tube TV! Again, I never had one (wow, was I a deprived kid or what?) but I had friends who did. What I remember most is the dire warnings Moms would give you about being too close to the TV when you played...

The TV. I loved watching Alf and his misadventures trying to catch the family cat! Imagine he read the crude scrawls on the bathroom stall by Tommy Tutone. Alf would love some good cat, so he'd call 867-5309!

The Knight Rider was one manly dude. The Hoff! Until he chose the drink of a new generation, diet style...

That's okay I had many other manly macho role models, like Hercules and He-Man. Complete with their tight white shirts and pink vests cinched at the waist with a fashionable belt!

I guess that is why I resorted to the fantasy world of WWF. Hulk Hogan was my fav. Remember he would take on giants and communists and always win! That's what we need to bring back. Make America Strong Again right Hulk!?
