So, why not celebrate it with a trip down memory lane with the help of Totally Awesome 80s, an Instagram page that shares all things ‘80s (with a little bit of ‘70s and ‘90s sprinkled in between). The page was created back in mid 2018 and has since then posted nearly 8,000 bits of content and amassed a following of 325,000 people. On an objective level, it was the decade that gave the world MTV and CNN, some of the first instances of personal home computing with IBM and Apple, and the first mobile phone, Motorola DynaTAC 8000X. It was also a decade of great tragedy with the NASA’s Space Shuttle Challenger disaster and the explosion of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Reactor #4. Many consider the nostalgia that ’80s music creates to be the strongest out there with numerous artists coming back to cover popular songs and sounds from the decade. And if you don’t feel like going back in time any more, then why not stay in the present and share your takes and stories in the comment section below! Follow Bored Panda on Google News!
