Abstract:
It's your parent’s bedtime story to you of their life growing up in the 80s. These are all embellished stories but to them it all happened because they were the coolest of kids (in their mind). We start with 80s movie nostalgia and go on an adventurous journey until we end up in telling the truth of what the reality of the 80s was.

From a Flintstone Kids Vitamin to a Centrum Multivitamin pill of reality.
