Stranger Things: 10 Savage Facts About The 80s

Stranger Things gave late millennials a little taste of the 80s, and they loved it, making the Netflix original series an instant hit. Here's a list of savageries we caught from the ET and Goonies inspired series that can teach late millennials a little something about the 80s.

1. Barb Is The Original Hipster!

Thick frame glasses, high-waisted, acid-washed mom jeans, and those pastel sweaters. It's no doubt Barb wrote the hipster fashion bible before her demise.

2. Tosh & Padme Had A Love Child?

Apparently, Daniel Tosh & Natalie Portman hopped into Doc's De Lorean and gave birth to the ultimate baby. If this were true, she definitely inherited her mother's badassness over her pseudo- dad's humor.

3. Gretchen Wieners Used To Be A MILF

Natalie and Daniel aren't the only ones who like to time-travel. Lacey Chabert, or plastic member Gretchen Wieners from Mean Girls, either suffers from Benjamin Button syndrome or found the fountain of youth.

4. 1983 Will Forever Be The Year Of The Great Kleenex Shortage

Netflix

Eleven suffered years of nosebleeds without ever being handed a tissue... EVER!

5. 80's Boyfriends Were Assholes

Netflix

Karate Kid, The Goonies, Back to the Future... The list goes on forever, but only one thing is certain, revenge is oh so sweet every single time!

6. Everyone Knew A Mad Scientist

If you grew up in the 80's you probably lived next door to a mad scientist.

7. Missions Depended On Advanced Backpack Packing

Before cell phones, kid's backpacks were filled with walkie-talkies, rope, a swiss army knife and everything needed to plant the perfect booby trap.

8. No One Cared About Hipsters

Actually, this is still true. That's what you get for being pretentious Barb. You just had to be the first civilian to be killed by the Demogorgon, right?

9. Ash Pokeballed His Style From the 80's

That's right... Ash too likes to time travel, totally jocking Dustin's killer swag.
