When I saw the blank looks on my students' faces, I clued in. One of girls in the front row (cute, blonde, perky) put up her hand and reminded me: "Uhm, Professor, we weren't alive in 1986."<BR/><BR/>History Geek -- when you figure out how to quell the rising tide of 80s throw back fashion disasters, lemme know. Our campus here is overrun with girls in giant sweaters cinched by giant belts over black leggings. I want to scream "That look was unflattering then, and it's even more unflattering now!"<BR/><BR/>*sigh*Amanda Bonnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12956743498061548191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-21220967899137077072007-11-15T21:24:00.000-08:002007-11-15T21:24:00.000-08:00The 80s are not old. *cries*And wait if things fro...The 80s are not old. *cries*<BR/><BR/>And wait if things from the 80s are old...why are they wearing the clothing from the 80s? Or rather, how can we make them STOP wearing the clothing from the 80s?<BR/><BR/>(And how does one tell some of these girls in the overlong shirts that their supposed to wear leggings with the shirts?)History Geekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04253687974407447459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-77444401702717653302007-11-15T19:29:00.000-08:002007-11-15T19:29:00.000-08:00Hey, you found my rocks!
