I remember the 80s well, in spite of my relative youth... It's frightening to see any of it returning, because even at the time it seemed distant, like it wasn't real.
The hair now is more 60s (mixed with human reproductions of Anime/Manga hair styles), the clothing has taken even more extreme tangents (I think the 80s fairy either visited this area a decade ago, or has passed us over, thankfully), and the music has some retro 70s/80s thing mixing in. The music sucks now, in fact.
The hair variations are notable to me because most hair cutting people here cut mine very different from the way my best friend's wife does it. Then again, she's firmly stuck in the 90s and early 00s, so when she does it my hair looks like it did back then, which is how I like it - simple, precise, and clean. Precise is totally out now-a-days, and a natural/unnatural (soft/unkempt/jagged) thing is in.
I don't even know what they'd remember of this era, since sometime in the late 90s the world has so severely fragmented as television lost it's place as the center of the universe and reality TV replaced waterfall method television show production/distribution, which was a sort of unifying factor. It's like they cheaped out because they knew their market was becoming less attentive to them. It was the unifying factor in the US for over half a century, which is a long time in a country that has only existed for a short time. Everyone's "common experiences" were TV-related.
I guess in the future people will see if you remember when goatse.cx was still at that address, or how many times you were rickrolled.
