25 Totally Tubular Gen X Nostalgia Memes That Only True 80s Girls Will Understand (April 8, 2025)

What do you miss the most about the 80s? Thanks to online streaming services, the answer doesn't have to be the music. It is easier than ever to listen to your favorite bops with just one touch of a button – you don't even have to change cassettes to listen to different genres or musicians! The answer certainly isn't 80s movies either, since you can find almost all of them somewhere on the internet. You might wish more contemporary movies were still made with more practical effects and tons of diffusion, though. Even the fashion can't really be missed. Tons of 80s trends are still going strong and more fashionable than ever: mom jeans, leg warmers, and white sneakers, just to name a few!

There are some things from back in the day we can never get back, though. Some snacks – like Pudding Pops – were unfortunately forever discontinued. While the connectedness of modern tech does provide a certain sense of safety, it is impossible to be totally unreachable like you could in the past. If you miss the good old days, scroll down for some memes that will take you for a throwback trip.
