How did we survive the 80's?

What a shrill, pointless decade. The birth of shock rock and punk. Bonnie Tyler, Bon Jovi, and worst of all...Falco! Goth clothing was just starting to be "rad". (Which is an 80's saying) Nose rings, baseball cards, black Trans-Am's, Nintendo, the Mullet, Neon, Breakdancing, Parachute Pants, Boom Boxes, Miami Vice Fashion, Cabbage Patch Kids, Freindship Bracelets, Where's The Beef?, Goatees, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, He-Man, Rainbow-Brite, Care-Bears, Garbage Pail Kids, Big Hair, Baby On Board, Hacky-Sack, Video Arcades, Jelly Shoes, Popples, M.U.S.C.L.E., and let's not forget Rockem Sockem Robots. How DID we survive?
