On the downside it was also the year of the mullet, a short lived trend in the uk, exagerated in the press by people who want to dismiss the 80s as the decade that fashion forget, when in fact it was a very creative decade. The mullet is slowly coming back in trend and it's a good style.
Anon	The year I was born, where's all that time gone?
hedda	did the so=called freedom of the Swinging Sixties build and peak during the 80s? Only to start going backwards? I find today young people are more conservative in thinking (if not voting) and Social Media has had the opposite effect- information overload means they know less whilst having minds filled with rubbish. The current waves of instant Slebs who may look the part but are dull as dishwater is part of this new conservatism. # being old has advantages. I recall after the Oscar Wilde trial a 'puritan' and new conservative social order began.
honey!oh sugar sugar.	The Fat Controller wrote: I Know what JK was doing...still entertaining the masses with ETUSA. I was slim and good looking. Blonde hair swept down above my left eye. Side parting. I looked like a Brideshead Sebastian---I was beautiful. I was about to conquer the world. And everyone loved me. Then I started to think how cruel life is. How a thin beautiful man, with everyone loving him, can quickly become an obese balding asthmatic with everyone mistrusting him. 1985 was wonderful.My 'finest hour' as Freddie Mercury predicted. First we are beautiful, and then we are wise.
