This quiz is like Encino, it's like SO BITCHIN'.

Which Year Of The '80s Are You?

Life is a challenge but you revel in facing hard tasks. Whether you're like Indiana Jones in "Raiders of the Lost Ark" or Dolly Parton tying up her sexist boss and singing about it in the single "9 to 5" that hit number one on the Billboard charts in 1981, you're always looking to the future. You're a bit like the launch of MTV in that way and you never let a crazy Jodie Foster-obsessed stalker get you down.

1981

You're practically out of this world! Literally. Your friends jokingly call you E.T. because your mind is always in outer space. But luckily for you, those frequent daydreams can result in some great creativity which is why you're firmly a 1982, the year that The Computer was Time magazine's Man of the Year and the first CD player was sold in Japan.

1982

You are all about the drama and hanging out with you can be a bit like sobbing through the final episode of "M\*A\*S\*H." Your friends still love you, though, even if your arrival music is "Every Breath You Take." When you need some time to chill out by yourself, and you often do, Shirley MacLaine and Debra Winger in "Terms of Endearment" are your soul sisters.

1983

You know how to have a good time, whether you're cutting up like Axel Foley or the gang at the Ghostbusters fire station. It's no wonder you're 1984, the VMAs debuted this year and Wham! was doing the jitterbug. Just be careful not to have too much fun, you could end up facing murder charges like Alexis Carrington on "Dynasty."

1984

Your home life can be a bit stressful, whether it's family drama like "The Color Purple" or accidentally going back in time and kissing your mom in the '50s like Marty McFly. But you're 1985, so eventually things always work out in the end with some perseverance and a quick humming of "We Are the World." The tumultuous New Coke phases of your life never last too long and you're ready to take on the world like A-ha.

1985

You're a diva who's always "Looking For a New Love" like Jody Watley, but your one true love is the spotlight and you snatch up accolades like Whitney Houston at the 1986 Grammys. Some people try and keep you from being so larger than life, but you toss of a quick "Papa Don't Preach" to the naysayers and drive off into the sun like the suave and sexy cast of "L.A. Law."

1986

You're no stranger to scheming. "The Bold and the Beautiful" is probably based on you, but you do have a bit of a heart, so no one will ever catch you boiling bunnies like Glenn Close. Some people think that you need to pop some Prozac to cure your darker impulses, but all you're really looking for is love. You just want that love "Alone" (as sung by Heart) with you and only you.

1987

You never got into that Rickrolling fad, because you genuinely love "Never Gonna Give You Up" in all of its cheesy 1988 glory. You'll always be a kid at heart, whether you're watching "Good Morning, Miss Bliss" or snacking on Dunk-a-Roos.

1988

You revel in all things geeky, whether it's chilling out and playing your Game Bay or doing the Batdance while watching "Back to the Future II." You're a purveyor of pop culture, which is why so many big things happened in your year like the fall of the Berlin Wall and the birth of a pop star that's kinda famous in 2014.

1989
