I am going to be more general and say that my favorite thing about the 80's was the positivity that was so pervasive in society. Life was better for many both financially and in terms of being conflict free.

I had a hard time picking just one for some of those categories, too.

If I listed all the cool stuff from the 80's I miss here in this thread, I wouldn't have much left to write about.  So without specifics, I'll just say that I miss a lot of the family time I had back then.  Things like just my Mom and me going to McDonald's to get a Big Mac and things of that nature.

My favorite things about the 80s include a growing concern about Russian activity and Donald Trump being a notable public figure.

The women of New Vegas ask me a lot if there's a Mrs. New Vegas. Well, of course there is! You're her. And you're still just as perfect as the day we met.
