Man. The way you guys make it sound, the 80s was pretty much like this 24/7 for some of you. LMAO:

Couple months back, I finally got around to getting a single wall basket for my little Bambino Plus, along with a really nice dosing funnel. Both of those things have been very nice improvements. The...

Wow! That looks and sounds freaking awesome. Unique for certain. Is that something commercially available or is it a tgapp special roast?

Time to go revisit the film, make a stiff drink, crank the theater system to 11, dim the lights, and enjoy the ride. Always SUCH a good time!

One of my favs and core 80s memories is this classic. HUGE fan of the mags too...

Totally. Did it really take this long for somebody to mention this one? Also loved the records when I was a kid. Dave's not here, man.

Any time I think of Vangelis, this is what comes to mind. The entire OST is a masterpiece.:

Haha. Totally. Nobody else could GAF. Including my own wife when I go in for a high five for doing such a kick ass parking job. Still feel like a boss when I do it tho. Lol. I can't explain it. Just...

Ooh, nice! Make sure to post pics of the post-op. That new exhaust looks sick.

Lol. Didn't say I "hate" them. Just that I "prefer" the simpler, old stuff. And while I do see the value in a backup camera for just what you said, I also get some sick satisfaction in my L337...

For real. Instead though, manufacturers are like "Here! Have a 100" touchscreen with Twitter, Netflix, and games!"

Then to compensate, they add in a bunch of nanny devices. Maybe I'm just being an...

I dunno. While I'm sure you're statistically correct, from experience, I still feel waaaay safer motoring on the German Autobahn than driving a "slow" US highway where Idaho plates are around, or in...

For real! Haha. Those guys are the WORST! Any time I was in the canyon driving back and forth to Bozeman and I was stuck behind some slow poke who utterly refused to use any one of the multiple...

Thank you! What a concept, huh? Left lane campers must be the same people who don't put away their shopping carts in parking lots.

As to the original point about the Autobahn, that sucks if true. If anything, AS IS, I think Germany sets the benchmark of what highway driving should be like. They let you haul ass in the passing...

Yeah. I'm not cool with the robocops. Once I was issued a ticket from a red light cam. I was stopped at a light, no right turn on red, waiting for the light to turn green so I could turn onto the...

I rather enjoyed Okja. I agree about their performances being a bit jarring, but I kinda liked Swinton in there. Same with her role in another Bong Joon-Ho film, Snowpiercer.

Wild thing is it...

Kansas turnpike on I-35 sure knows.

Wait. Adventureland was a real place? Good movie with the same title with Jesse Eisenberg, Kristen Stewart, and Ryan Reynolds that portrays that 80s nostalgia vibe pretty well. I always thought it...

Haha. Yeah! That's the place. Wild.

While I never got the opportunity to go, I have a feeling that Action Park in NJ is a core 80s memory for many. Totally crazy (and awesome). Anybody care to chime in about it?

Yeah. It is kind of tough to categorize some like that. Aerosmith for example had a helluva good run and was distinctly popular in each decade for very different albums. Same could be said for...

Geez! That is one helluva good run of shows! What a magical crossover time that will never be duplicated. You had musicians from the 70s who were still killing it (cuz it was barely 1.5-2 decades...

Yup. Prolly had some air in there. Next time I do my coolant, I think I'm going to try out one of those fancy vacuum kits. They don't cost much and they supposedly make it easy to get all the air...

I'm willing to bet at least one of you was at this recording:

Yeah. Not worth venting it when you can simply rent the vacuum setup from AutoZone or wherever. I've done it before. Small machine with a handle about the size of a shoe box and totally did the...

There's a good story behind this one. Please elaborate. And you need to write an autobiography. For real. For those who don't know Harry IRL, they could seriously make a movie about the dude's life. ...

On the other hand... Disco.

I actually had this silly record when I was kid. Just like the Star Wars disco song, there was a brief WTF moment during the 70s that was Disco. So glad that was as...

Lol. Ok. Perhaps "quit music" may have been a bit harsh, but you apparently stopped paying attention by AC/DC and don't think you've missed out on anything since then.

Lemme guess. You probably...

Yeah. The MASH theme song still hits hard. *sniff

And speaking of schwing, let us not forget the wonderful era that was the 90s SNL cast and all the ensuing comedies. Dana Carvey, Mike Meyers, Chris Farley, David Spade, Will Ferrel, Chris Kattsn,...

Bummer you quit music like 40 years ago cuz you've missed out on a LOT of really great stuff my man.

As far as 'kids and their crazy music these days,' there actually is a ton of great stuff...

In the 90s, our girls rocked the super low-rise jeans, thong undies, and midriffs. Now the young girls wear freaking mom jeans. 90s > 2020s

One of my favorite things about the 90s was the tech side of things. It was seriously fun to be into computers from the 80s forward, but the proliferation of the young internet was truly a blast. PC...
