We're all laughing here, but the 80s wasn't all about fun

Soviet Armenia:



Ayatollah Ruhullah Musavi Khomeini:



Allah u Akhbar!

And 1988 earthquake in Armenia...



I had planned to go to Armenia in the summer of 89. The first time I visited Armenia again since Soviet times was three years ago.

II and III were awful! Just like the Godfather I and II were awesome, the rest sucked camel's testicles.

I just watched First Blood a few days ago. Great stuff.

Wasn't she Sylvester Stallone's wife at some point? Which reminds me of one of my favorite movies in the 80's...

Do you guys remember Red Sonja????

How awesome was that movie...(at the time)

I loved her! I thought she was so hot. I must have watched that movie twenty times when I was 7-8.

Apparently the 80s was also the period of the hair metal trend when guys thought it was cool to have big hair. Old folks loathed it, young people love it, and pigs didn't pay much attention because they were busy all day doing what pigs do, eating slop. Indeed the 80s was all about rock, big hair, spandex and a bushel load of hair spray, a trend induced by the bourgeois ruling elite to further divide the masses and prevent the workers from truly realizing their goals.

Haha... I loved women's dresses from the 80s. They look cool. Or wait, was that the 70s?
