25 Throwback 80s Memes for Retro Fiends

What a decade the 1980s were. Many would argue that a lot of the attitudes and beliefs that got established by the current events from back then still inform the world that we live in today, but in a lot of ways, times were very different, no matter how many 80s kids keep bringing the decade back into the cultural conversation.

It often feels like a more colorful place, even though many people's homes and wardrobes were solidly brown, and one where the caliber of movies and music that reached the mainstream was higher, or so those who were young back then seem to think. The whole thing is influential enough that even in the very contemporary world of memes, we can see the effect of this most impactful decade. It isn't just the fashion and the songs that people yearn for, but also the humor that can come from a nostalgic look back.
