The 80's aren't a decade, my man. They're a state of mind! (Off-Topic)

As someone who came of age in the 80s (I was 15 when they started, and 25 when they ended), I'm pretty sure I can say that the 90s aren't the 80s. :) (It's actually sort of amazing - that decade was separated by life events that lined up with chronological boundaries, in a way that no other decade has ever been for me. I entered high school three months before 1980 started (my high school was just 10-12; 9th grade was part of our middle school), and I got married, moved to a new state, and started grad school in 1990. So the 80s actually WERE a decade, bookended by actual life events for me. :) )
