-Letting a nerd rape your drugged girlfriend. I grew up in the '80s and this one disturbs me the most in retrospect. Like, this seemed totally normal and acceptable.
Oh the 80s were full of casual sexual assault that women and girls were supposed to tolerate. This is why I hate the conservative bellyaching about how kids don’t need smartphones; you have NO idea the danger we ended up in as largely unsupervised kids in the 80s.
My parents worked together at a Bar/restaurant in the 80’s. from the ages of 3-10ish i was basically raised at the bar of this restaurant. Id snack on cocktail peanuts and maraschino cherries all day and the bartender would make me virgin cocktails whenever i asked. The place was always full of people smoking cigarettes and cigars up front and smoking weed/ doing other stuff in the back. Looking back, im like wtf were my parents doing??, but that was just normal back then. If I wasn’t with mom and dad, id be with grandma and she smoked like a chimney and would drag me to bingo or some other gathering where all her friends were smoking too. Wild times man.
calvin harris’ first big song was “acceptable in the 80s” and I think about that phrase a lot
Let’s make a list of what was acceptable in the 1980s?
-Smoking while holding your newborn. -Smoking in your hospital room. -Smoking on planes.
Smoking with kids in a car with the windows up.
Smoking in McDonald’s with McDonald’s branded ashtrays
Don’t forget the little coke spoon!
