I know this might sound kind of crazy but I miss 80s (and early 90’s LOL). Some of the best things I remember (Alzheimer’s permitting) include:

Cool TV

Cheesy fun stuff like Beverly Hills 90210 and Baywatch (technically, the 90’s but who cares)

Funny hairstyles, girls with multicolored outfits… you know what I mean..

Boomboxes

True most of them lacked the sound quality of modern audio systems, but they were portable, cool, and they had flashy led lights, which were, um, actually little bulbs. No backlt displays back then!

And square Japanese cars

So, what are your favorite memories of the 80s/90s?

[offtpic] These guys claim to have compressed a 400+MB office ISO to 1.4MB. Is that even possible? [/offtopic]

Its an odd thing: When two girls meet, there’s this moment, where they measure each other up. Starts with shoes, clothing, handbag, nail polish, hair and so on.

We (the guys) simply don’t notice that split second moment. We are too busy focusing on boobs the introduction/the conversation.

I’m beginning to realize that much of what women do, as far as fashion goes, has nothing to do with men really. It’s just to outdo each other.

And they are vicious. They take each othe apart with a certain amount of ferocious savegery which would make even us men and our rivalries seem gentle by comparison.

Girls dont like attractive girls. Especially in an office setting. The office hottie (especially if she uses her assets for favors from the boys) is universally hated by her female colleagues.

Yes, I know, this (and 99% I write about) is obvious to everyone, but sometimes, I see these things, and it just occurs to me… gee.. never thought about that…

(Ed: Title should probably be girl vs girl, but girl on girl sounded kinkier)

Elections, and the mythical free lunch
Now, back to the election. Even if I knew what it is about or when it is, chances of me voting are highly unlikely. This is because I know nothing about any of the candidates, their platforms, or why I should vote for any of them.

Thing is, local voters are looking for one simple thing: A free lunch. Unfortunantly, there aint no such thing as a free lunch. The politicians know this, but the people don’t - they expect a free lunch, so they are promised that.

Entire campaigns are built around that promise.

So, I already know TANSTAAFL. Therefore, theres nothing any politician can really tell me that would make me vote for them, except perhaps, the truth.

Yeah. Right.
