Almost-Forgotten Photos That Show How Life in The ’80s Was Truly Like
We call “the ’80s” to the entirety of the events that took place between 1980 and 1989. At first, it doesn’t sound fair at all. But looking back at the quirky decade, it’s impossible to deny there was something unique about it. And for some reason, we all know what we’re talking about when we talk about the 80s…
From the over-the-top fashion trends to popular sci-fi movies, from the rebellious spirit of punk to the homely feeling of suburban family-life, there’s plenty to recall and discover about the yuppie decade. If you grew up during the ’80s, get ready for a sweet hit of nostalgia. If not, prepare to be surprised by some of the things people used to do back in the day Bruce Springsteen and Michael Jackson topped the charts.
A New Kind of Genius: The Tech Wiz
The ’80s have forever changed the perception of what it means to be a genius. The geniuses of the decade were nothing like the brilliant minds of the past, but somewhat talented young lads like the tech wiz Steve Jobs, here photographed while riding his BMW bike.
More fashionable and easygoing than his unavoidable Microsoft rival, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs was one of the earliest examples of the now-standardized Silicon Valley genius. He was the man responsible for coining Apple’s market philosophy and brand values. And now, the company is the second most valuable in the world.
