In 1982, Prince told us to party like it's 1999.

[Dennis Donovan]

1999 was 20 years ago. What do we party like now?

[David__77]

1. Like it's 1982 sounds fun to me.

...

[Dennis Donovan]

2. I tossed out my parachute pants long ago

[RGinNJ]

3. DUzy

[Lochloosa]

4. I'll go with 1972. Music was better. But I did get to see Prince twice.

[rownesheck]

5. Party

as if it's the end of the world. Then suffer in sickness until November 3 when hopefully we put an end to authoritarianism in the U.S.

6. Been thinking about this song lately

On a happier note:

[2naSalit]

7. You beat me to it

with the Zager & Evans ! It's kind of a bummer song, though.

[NurseJackie]

8. Party like it's ON SALE for $19.99!

[greyl]

9. K & R

[Roland99]

10. Oh! Oh! Oh! I know when!!

[sl8]

11. Remember how far away 1999 seemed, in 1982?

Now it's even further away.

[Dennis Donovan]

12. I play with years that way a lot...

Just yesterday, I was listening to R.E.M.'s Murmur (1983) and thought to myself how it came out 37 years ago.

And then realized that 37 years before 1983 is 1946. So, then I started thinking about how cars look now, vs 1983, vs 1946:







I dunno. Just how my mind works, I guess.

[Skittles]

13. it just freaks me out

seeing stuff like:

2050 is as far away as 1990
