25 Totally Tubular Gen X Nostalgia Memes That Only True 80s Girls Will Understand (January 23, 2025)

Salutations, sisters. Being born to a specific generation is a major win because you are able to share in hundreds of little inside jokes with millions of people from all around the world. Movies of the time period and retro TV shows can capture certain pop culture aspects of a particular decade, but it will never be the same as having lived through it. There are so many forgotten details that can only be triggered by a grainy image, a passing scent, or the first few notes of a melody.

Some specific memories have no tangible evidence and are subject to internet discussions over whether they were real at all, based on reality but distorted by time, or a straight-up mass hallucinations. If you're an 80s girl that can still taste Jello Pudding Pops on a summer day, know that your gym shorts had a Fruit of the Loom logo on it featuring a cornucopia despite all available evidence, and could still rock a pair of huaraches, scroll down for memes curated especially for you!

Cuffing jeans is trending amongst the Gen Z hipsters, but that little fold before cuffing is what gives a true 80s girl away!
