What do you miss from the 80s/90s?

Waking up on Saturday morning watching Going Live while eating your cornflakes. Meeting your mates in town to go play Street Fighter 2 down the Arcades.

I know a song about that!...

Run your mouth when I'm not around

It's easy to achieve

You cry to weak friends that sympathize

Can you hear the violins playing your song?

Those same friends tell me your every word

Is there no standard anymore?

Going out to play in the holiday with only one rule...

"don't be back too late".

That gave us license over the fields from 9 in the morning till the evening, possibly popping back for lunch if we were really hungry.

Absolutely as above.

But also the invincibility of youth. In the wars one minute then back out playing the next.
