AUSTIN, Texas -- Put down your iPhone and iced coffee and pay attention, millennials. Kevin Bacon has a very important message for you.
Stop pretending you remember cassette tapes and Ronald Reagan. The 1980s were a magical time and you're too busy swiping for a hookup on Tinder to appreciate the greatest decade in recorded history. Before you try to make some silly argument that the '90s were all that and a bag of chips, first recall the days of VCRs, the Motley Crue and parachute pants.
