6 Things Best Left In The 80s

We all love the best of the 1980s, right? But some things are better left in the past. If Marty McFly went back in time 30 years from today, what do we hope he wouldn't bring back?

1. Mullets

Oh yes, the haircut we love to hate... or now just hate. The loss of the mullet is humanity's gain.

2. Enormous mobiles

Imagine trying to slip that little baby into your pocket -- not quite an iPhone 5 is it? Look how far (or small) our phones have come.

3. Casual racism

So not cool. Luckily so not acceptable now. Enough said.

4. Big video tapes

We all love movies, but no need any more for these chunky bad boys -- and so much the better. Can't really compare to watching films on the go on your iPad, can they?

5. Big-ass shoulder pads

What's the most beautiful, most attractive part of a person? What could we accentuate to really show off how freaking gorgeous they are? You've guessed it -- shoulders, my friend. Or at least that's where human evolution had got to by the 1980s. Crazy, right? Glad to see shoulder pads GONE!

6. Nukes

So many things are better than they were in the 80s or just plain gone cos we didn't want them any more. But our nukes are still with us. They could kill millions of people and they cost us £350,000 an hour to keep. Should they go the way of the mullet instead? Join the conversation and have your say.
