Are you an 80's kid, Kristy..?
Imagine the trauma of 60's kids... their parents took them or dropped them off at a Monkees concert in 1967 and learned of the Jimi Hendrix Experience was the opening act... BTW we all turned out just fine... with a mild case of manic depression... Scuse me while I kiss the sky... LOL"If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”Comment

80s ! What a time to be a teenager ! Latchkey kids, freedom to walk home 5 miles from school. Video game arcades…
90s ! What a time to grow and be merry, probably the last great decade for the U.S. I think the boomers would agree. And Kristy was too young to be aware of the greatness, just fortunate enough to carry around Polly Pocket stuffed with Trolls and watch My So Called Life
by the way. I admit I watched my sol called life. And then one day it disappeared. I was like “who the hell is that cute girl? What happened?” Claire Danes. I lost track of her until Homeland debuted

Kristy you are looking at only the negatives
what about…
- VH at their greatest
- Saturday morning cartoons
- smaller population
- cable TV and stealing cable service
- MTV !
- too young to join the military and get sent off to CIA missions to overthrow governments
- Girls not too skinny, not too fat
- bell bottom jeans
- good country music
- mullets
- snowboarding did not exist
- doorbell ditch without getting chased by maniacs with assault rifles
- cars you could actually work on because they were all mechanical
I could go on but you just can’t relate
