80s kids are cooler

I don't want to be a derelict blogger, but have no time to write today! Instead, I am going to refer you to my Sesame Street video of the day, which shows entirely why kids that grew up in the eighties are much cooler.



Plus the fact that Atari just wasn't good enough to make us addicts. We still played outside. Rock on 80s grownups.

  4. Here's why 80's kids are cooler (probably a bit too Brit-ified though):
    Calvin Harris "Acceptable In the 80s"

  5. Yup totally.. I was born in 1976.. I totally grew up on this kind of music, not to mention all of the other great funk and disco music of the time plus the awesome 80's stuff that followed.

    I love this song.. those first few bars of the song are total magic though.. and then they get into this awesome funk jam near the end.. you just don't hear that kind of thing anymore..

    Here's another great funky song you might like now that you're back in the States..

  6. Hmmmnyah, wait til us 90s kids pick up. ;P For the first half of the decade we played outside, then after we got tired of that, it was just in time for the internet to boom! We're balanced, not like those fat 2000s kids.
