SuperBacon Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Ice cream from Mr Whippys if Mum was flush??? Because Dad was absent doing proper hard labour British work or protesting against the facking poll tax? The 80s were shit. The only good thing to come out of it were John Hughes films and Hypercolour t-shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperBacon Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Right let's not start this again (sure there was a thread for it) but it's knock down ginger. Â Knock door run sounds like something a toddler would say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted October 16, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 16, 2016 There was no such thing as any electronic device? The 80s were fantastic but not for the reasons in that stupid write up that could just as easily be talking about the 60s or 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members GlennCullen Posted October 16, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 16, 2016 Â Makes the 80s sound shit, to be honest. The 80's were shit. Â Â Steady on now, any decade that produced Purple Rain and Nebraska can't be considered a total write off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undefeated Steak Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Similarly, someone in their late 20's tweeted how grateful they were to have had a childhood before technology. Can only assume their childhood was in a basement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Surf Digby Posted October 16, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 16, 2016 (edited) Children's ITV and Children's BBC weren't channels in their own right, but were still child-specific programming. Â Bottled water is major part of the nouveaux cuisine bollocks that is symbolic of 80s fads. Â And Major Morgan calls bullshit on the lack of electronic devices, as he takes time out from playing on his Tomytronic. Â Maybe they lived in 1980s Cambodia.

WyattSheepMask Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Children's ITV was still running 3:30-5:10 until at least the mid 90s, nevermind the 80s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted October 16, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted October 16, 2016 No electronic devices is the biggest bullshit claim of them all. Just check out this link: http://www.ebaumsworld.com/pictures/hand-held-video-games-of-the-70s-and-80s/310150/ Â My uncle had dozens of these things, played them for hours on end. The video games of today do so much more to help kids with learning and development compared to the shite you'd get back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 People who tend to post shite like that also post stuff about being careful in ASDA because a Muslim Romanian tried to force a toddler into the toilets for a bit of rape, so be on your guard.
