The ‘80s is the New ‘60s
People who were 40-ish, or close to it 20 years ago, knew that 40 years ago was 1960, which seems like a lifetime ago. But Twitter user @oghofer tweeted about how old she felt when someone in 2020 reminded her that 40 years ago was actually 1980. Most of us are still in denial and believe that the ’80s and ’90s were only 10 or 20 years ago. But it’s a lie we all tell ourselves because living in denial can be total bliss.
