But I wish I was. Please don't treat me like a freak.

I didn't really know what to put as my first post, so this is what you guys are getting. Sorry. Surf Ninjas used to be my favorite movie if that counts for anything.

Randomness is what I specialize in, but you won't see too much of this. Just wanted to make an announcement that I'm here, not that I'm an arrogant bastard, just sayin'.

I was born in 1989. There's no shame in missing out.


I'm not a bad enough dude, but I am an edgy little shit. I'll do what I can.

Thank you all for all the welcomes. I'm glad to see I'm not alone. I'm 18 and I feel I was born in the wrong decade.

It is a good thing you joined this site then. Read all you can. there are far too many young people who do not have an appreciation or even KNOWLEDGE of pop culture. My girlfriend is 20. She saw a picture of a spaceship on some site. she asked me why it was significant. after rolling my eyes til they exploded, i managed to sigh "Starship Enterprise..."

I know a fair bit about pop culture in the late 80's as my parents always seemed to be 5 years behind everyone else. I grew up on the first season of Wonder Years.

I have read almost every article, and the stuff I didn't know really fascinated me. I love reading about stuff like that.

enh. I was born i n 85 and because I was too stupid to remember anything, I kinda missed the 80's too. My memory kinda seems to begin around 1991.

I wish I was born in the 70's, so I could grow up in the 80's, with all the coke and night clubs and flamingo shirts and stuff.

No, I think I'm one of the oldest members on the forum, if not the oldest. I'll be 30 in a few days having been born in the glorious year of 1980. I was lucky enough to be wholly sentient and tapped into the pop culture explosion during the most radical 5 years in human history, 1987-1992.

I genuinely feel for all of you who were not born in the 80s. It must feel like a piece of you is missing.

It does when I read about everything that went down. 00-10 were especially uneventful.

Bzzt. Born in 1978, here.

I think jackfrost is a hair older than me, too.

Except for that time when all those 80s dudes died at the same time.

Does everyone here suffer from 80's envy?

Yeah, I do too. I got a big chunk of the late 90's. Not even the early nineties, but the late nineties to early double O's, which is by far the biggest letdown of time period ever recorded. Y2K, boy bands, zero good action movies, and slow ass AoL internet.
