re: If you could go back to the 80s would you?

Yes

I’ve never been to the 80s.

I grew up in the 80’s. Graduated HS in 84 and LSU in 88. It was a glorious time to be alive. Life was fun and very simple.

Iona, I'd love to take you to the Fish in Breaux Bridge back in around 88.

Absolutely.

Music was better
Movies were better
Childhood was better
Social media doesn't exist

I grew up in the 80s, and there were a number of us that thought that it would have been easier, better, funner to grow up in the 50s.

Were there good times in the 80's? Sure. Were there tough times, or things that would seem tough today? Sure.

Not having grown up the Internet Age, I am not sure how it would affect my formibale years of my life.

One example about the 80s. Over the years we had a statewide church camp I'd go to, and we would meet girls from all over the state. Once the week was over, we all went back home, and it was basically impossible to continue on any started relationship. All we could do is mail a letter to each other.
Had we had texting and Facebook, etc. perhaps I could have developed a relationship that way better.

Yes.
Early 80s there was no aids in civilization.
Pleasure.
Liberated sexuality from procreation.
Ashrams.

I'd sure as hell like to go back for a weekend. Late 70's to mid 80's.

Born in 81. Late 80s, early 90s were the goat

Gotta say I'm unfamiliar with that routine. I was a Shreveport Square kind of guy with a little Cowboys thrown in
