What I wouldn't give to go back to the 1980's and undo a lot of the decisions I made back then.
-
Born in 75, the 80’s were THE BEST. I’d go back in a nanosecond! Man I miss those days.
-
It's weird seeing a piece of my life in a historic context.
-
The 80s just had a vibe. I miss them so much. No other decade felt the same way. I'm proud to still have a sewing machine and a recipe box in my house. Some things shouldn't phase out.
-
I was born in 76 so the 80s was my childhood decade. I miss it so much. I miss the feeling of it. Such a fun decade to be a kid
-
Turned 18 in 1984 and loved the ‘80’s. The girls hair, the rock bands hair, me having hair. 😂
-
Was in my 20s in the 1980s.. wouldn't trade a single MINUTE of that entire decade for ANYTHING!! Some of the best years of my life were spent having lots of fun in the '80s!
-
Married in 1980. My kids were born 82, 84, 86 and 90. The 80s were my decade of young motherhood and being a wife. Still happily married. And btw, not only do I have a sewing machine, I use it frequently and not just to mend things.
-
As a child in the 80's I learned some of the best vulgarities, while watching my dad and his friend install a garage door opener.
-
I still have my popcorn ceiling. 80's are hands down, the best decade ever... As far as the long phone cords... OMG.. I didn't know anyone who didn't have one that could span three rooms. Hilarious to think about that now.
-
I still have a recipe box 🙂. Thank you for this fun look back
-
I miss the eighties! That was the decade!! ❤️ Thank you for the trip down memory lane. So many great times 😊

The encyclopedias didn't get outdated too quick because, every year, a yearbook was sent out to owners . It updated the set with new current "discoveries" and such.
-
I was in my 20s in the 80s, so I was young and broke. My place was full of thrift store furniture and appliances. For, at least, the first half of the 80s my place looked more like a cross between the 60s ;and 70s. My 1970s La Machine was my prized kitchen appliance. I still have it and it still works great.
-
My family didn't have funds for Encyclopedia Britannica, so in the early 1960s they purchased a set of Funk & Wagnall's Encyclopedias one a week from our local A&P.
-
The world book encyclopedia was my introduction into everything science and space age in the 70s and 80s. I credit my grandparents for keeping those books current for me and my dad. Seriously, my knowledge of trivia is directly tied to those books I read over and over again.
-
My dad gave me a word processor typewriter when I started college in 1988. You could type out an entire sentence on the little screen, check it for typos, then "print" it on the page. I can't say that really saved any time, maybe paper 😅, but I used it for every assignment and essay. Loved that thing!
-
I'm remembering those big, square glass bricks that used to be everywhere. And so many public spaces like doctors' offices were decorated in purple and grey.
-
I was one of those teen agers in the 80's. And I remembered everything in this video. It was a much much better time. I am now shopping for a hot tub time machine😁
-
Strained my back moving many console TVs in my time.
