We now return to your regularly scheduled wank.

Please?

Because over on a messageboard dedicated to 80's pop culture, sometrollbody posted a big list of reasons why the 80's sucked, quoted directly from their website.

What follows includes nitpicking about the career highlights of Meatloaf, argument over whether the troll is a troll or not, discussion of the relative entertainment value of cheese, and much eye rolling.

Then, on page two, the troll admits that s/h/it is only pulling everybody's chains because s/h/it saw a website dissing the 90's and got mad because the 90's were s/h/it's favourite decade. Further exploration of the website demonstrates that it's maker (who now seems to not be the same person as the troll) hates everything, not just the 80's. But nobody really cares, as they're all too busy either defending the 80's or else going, "hello, we're being trolled, stop feeding the troll", and generally agreeing with each other.

On page 3 somebody says the 1860's were the worst decade ever. As for that being on the same thread as a bunch of people going: "don't diss the 80's if you didn't live through them!" all I can say is 'talk to the username.'

ETA: Is this post not showing up or something? *confused*

Ahaha, and now the "much ado about nothing" becomes 100% literal! I love it. The only thing funnier would be if ZR and Robin did it on purpose.

Pfft, everyone knows the worst decade was any decade where the life expectancy of the average human was less than 35 years.

I_love_Miami_Vice: "You kiddin'? The 80's had the best music I can recall listening to, Forget \MilliVanilli or whatever , think about Foreigner..."

Now I can't help but think of the magic Foreigner belt from Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Man, I don't know what these people are on about - I loved the 80's. Jem and My Little Pony were the shit back in the day, yo.

Which is probably very sad, because I *still* like watching Jem and playing with My Little Ponies. XD

Don't look at me that way! The Misfits kick arse! And their songs are better! :O
