The 80s, myth and reality?

[Trenchfriend]

That's a bullseye. My wife loved that stuff. I hated it.

Old Spice, man. She was OK with that.

But let me guess! Your wife also loved Zino and you hated it?

 

[rogueclimber]

there's a real Shambala/Shangri-La existing, which is still not found.

There are those who know...

I have no idea what that is.

Beat me to it.

Zino (Davidoff) Eau de Toilette.

Launched 1986.
Very powerful, normally TOO powerful. Strooong sauce.

black Trans Ams with A.I. never existed on the streets!!

There was a Super Snake which could shape shift into an F-150.

Don't forget ham. Er, uh, "Canadian" bacon.

I have only been close to the Mounties on a few occasions.....never noticed a scent of any kind. A moose I have no experience at all.

They have lodges all over the place down here, but I'm afraid if I tried to sniff one I'd get smacked.

Personally? For me the 1980's were epic. It was the decade in which:

- I received my law degree.
-Passed my bar exam on the first shot.
-Got to experience skiing in Aspen.
-Bought my first car, after relying upon public transit for decades.
- Got my dream job that I ended up holding for over 30 years.
- Got married.
-Honeymooned in Germany.
-Bought my first house.
-Became a dad.

As to what went on in the pop entertainment world, I profess no expertise. There was good, bad, and in- between.

In retrospect, it was life as good as it ever could be.

Not 1987, but 1978!

The 80's was when Jewish kids brought Hip Hop to the world.

More like "80s Bad Teen Movie Soundtrack Song".

One thing:

Matching floral textured summer shirts and pants, was it a thing of the 80s or more 70s?
