25 Totally Tubular Gen X Nostalgia Memes That Only True 80s Girls Will Understand (June 20, 2025)

Welcome, Gen X ladies. We all gaze upon our childhoods with rose-tinted glasses. Gen Z yearns for the years of the early internet — back before every YouTube video was riddled with 5 ads and Flash games were all the rage. Millennials still hold a fondness for the gaudiest fashions of the 90s. They dream of renting VHS tapes from Blockbuster and playing hours upon hours of video games on the Nintendo 64.
And you, Gen X? What are you nostalgic for? Perhaps you find yourself missing the bold fashion of the 80s — neon windbreakers, padded blazers, or leg warmers. Maybe you miss having to practice your patience; every show, movie, or song wasn't just available at the touch of a button with a subscription. You used to have to schedule your day around a TV show if you didn't want to miss an episode and put tons of effort into making a mixtape if you wanted your favorite songs in one place. If you miss the simpler times, scroll down for memes!
