33 Timeless 80s Memes for Girls Who Were There

Welcome, fellow latchkey ladies. It's honestly no surprise that Gen Z is obsessed with the '80s; it really was the perfect era to grow up. You could hop on your bike, disappear with your friends for hours, and the only rule was "be home before dark." You could experiment with the wildest hair or makeup imaginable without fearing that someone would immortalize the evidence online forever. And "third places" were everywhere: malls, food courts, record stores, libraries, arcades, bowling alleys, and they were all cheap, all accessible, all bursting with life.

MTV actually played music (imagine!), and instead of digital wishlists, you built your holiday dreams by circling toys in thick mail-order catalogs like a DIY vision board. Life was simpler, messier, and honestly way more fun. So if you grew up in the '80s or '90s, take a little trip back in time with these snapshots that will unlock memories you forgot you even had.
