Feeling disillusioned by the current state of affairs, you decided to take a step back to a "simpler time" to get a chance to see how everything got so wacky. While you remembered the 80s as a time of deliciously synthesized music, jelly slippers and Saturday morning cartoons, turns out that's because you were a kid.
