Fashion, music, and television personalities are not the only things that influenced the 80's. I researched more online and found a website called "80's Retro Rage ". This site showed all of the 80's lingo that some people use in conversations today.
One of my favorite phrases is "like". I must use this at least thirty times a day. Like most girls do. In a popular MTV reality show called "Laguna Beach" the teenage guys use the word "stoked" allot while surfing. I didn't realize how much of the 80's really effected my generation.
Alicia Silverstone played a girl from Beverly Hills in the popular 80's movie "Clueless". Where the famous phrase "AS IF?" orginated from. Their were many more phrases from the 80's that people use today.
