50 Posts From ‘80s-90s Babies Only’ That Prove Life Was A Lot Simpler 30 Years Ago
Ah, the good old days! There’s nothing like a taste of nostalgia to boost your mood whenever things get tough. You think back to your childhood and you realize how carefree you probably were. Not to mention how much simpler life used to be!
The ‘80s and 90s Babies Only’ social media project reminds everyone how great it was to grow up in the 1980s and 1990s. We’ve collected some of their top memes and pics for a blast from the past. Scroll down for a retro daydream that might inspire you to start working on that time machine.

Cute movie. I saw it in the theatre with my grandma when it came out. She loved it.

Our Father, who art in Calgary, Bobsled be thy name. Thy kingdom come, gold medals won, on Earth as it is in Turn Seven. With Liberty and Justice for Jamaica and Haile Selassie. Amen.

We were never bored. Always something weird stuff to do. Can’t remember I was bored at all like kids nowadays.

Me, too. Getting the "non-smoking" section in a restaurant, only to be seated by the barrier and choking on smoke. Strange how the cigarette smoke didn't understand which section to stay in! 🤪😂

We still have some in Australia and they are free. There is one at the end of my street that is used fairly often. Others have free wifi.

Dumbo's Circus on the Disney Channel. Mid '80s. The koala bear is Fair Dinkum, he's the ringmaster. That is literally all I can remember about that show.

I wish you had those lists for specifically my country, because most are American and a lot of that stuff we just didn't have.

As a US citizen I would be fascinated to see a list from any other (group of) culture(s)! I am pretty sure all of this is harvested from Reddit, where it would be nice if someone created a subReddit for each of various cultures.

Some of these are definitely older, but it's still a pretty good list!

Several of these things were around in the 70s and a few were here in the 60s.

Let me get this straight - Bored Panda is citing the example of phoning a radio station, waiting on hold to request a song, then waiting for a long time to record it on cassette (and no doubt get frustrated at the DJ talking over the intro/ outro) if you were lucky enough to have it played (in contrast to just asking the smart speaker to play it nowadays) and other "kids these days don't know the struggle" type posts as evidence that life was simpler back then? *Laughs in Gen X*
