Betty White is the reason I still use Q-Tips. Nothing else will do.

No 80's WAVY-TV 10 Commercials

She’s so beautiful 😍

She was already old in 1983 dang😧

I used to get mad when these commercials came on. Now I seek them out. Who woulda thought.

funny how things work out!

Commercials are the true TV shows.

Absolutly right mike b me too☺

Yeah aren't we crazy watching these things? Who would of thought! I could not stand commercials back then but I search You Tube for anything in the 80's.. its a guilty pleasure thats for sure.. but I love it

Yes sir

I think we can all agree that society was objectively better 40 years ago. Was there racism, was there poverty, was their inequity? Yeah, but they weren't as weaponized (by corporations, and their puppets/politicians) as they are now, and we weren't nearly as divided, as we are now. The Collapse was already happening back then, but it was much more subtle and small, and there was still patriotism and a belief in ourselves, our nation, and a bright future, and that's what makes these old commercials so bittersweet to use oldies that grew up in the culture they depict. I miss it. I'm looking to get out of this USA in the next couple of years. I don't want to be around for The (planned) Collapse.

I understand ☹️ I feel the same

🙌🏾🙌🏾

Oh.

Some of then are

Same here.

Bitter sweet, my son was not alive then but my great grandmother was alive and living on her own. I miss her garden.

Yep. Part of getting old.

I feel the same way buddy

Same here my friends....

I’m sure old people in the 80s said the same thing about going back to the 40s. Appreciate life and the time you’re living in.

@@dantegood2195 well written. Thank you

why??? they were just like today except we had much less information

If give everything I have because my father and grandparents were still alive......

Back then the reason I loved VHS tapes and newspaper to look back at all the old shit.

We took them for granted

Yes.

@MsHellraser no doubt there spent life muting commercials now we can't get enough now we search for nothing but old commercials we are our own community

When I was a kid I couldn't wrap my head around the phrase "and to the republic for which it stands". It's a shame kids are taught that the US of A is a democracy and not a republic. Perhaps it's too complicated for children. Democracy seems like a fair system but democracy without the rule of law is by definition mob rule. In any case, it's a shame it was cut out.

My kids'schools have always had them say it. They've always gone to public schools, too.

But there is no such thing as a magical being in the sky watching you.

@@cuteguy2824 Don’t do yourself the disservice of thinking you know a thing you cannot possibly know.

Actually the original Pledge was, to the flag and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. The part, under god, which literally divides the pledge, wasn't added until McCarthy's witch hunt era in the 1950s.

Thats right...today's kids just wouldn't understand 🤗

I turned 17 years old in 83.. and it was a fantastic summer! My car my friends, going to the beach hanging out, chasing the girls 😊 it was a special time.. the freedom I had.. I sure do miss those days.

I was born on October 6, 1983 and was 2 months old at the end of that year

Hi Johnny Lawrence

I was 10 lighting firecrackers and M-80s

I was just sitting here in my emotions wishing I could go back to these simpler times.

I was also 14 in 1983!

I wish also to wake up in 1983 but with experience that I have now ( like in the movies) in order to not make the same mistakes again and would run to my high school to know someone...

Okay.

Hmmmm.

@@taureanmay7480hmm what?

I have no use for all this techno garbage

Same for me Terri, I’m 47 also, so crazy the feelings these commercials bring back 👊

Only two more years for the big one Terri.

I was born..

Yes.

Same

Yes.

I'm pretty sure you are looking for this. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e8VgqbCZveDSlqM.html

🙏🏾 Me too 🥺

@@princessjones34 We didn't realize how wonderful the time was! These days are a nightmare.

Yes.

Yes.

19 inches! FULL COLOR! Imagine watching 360p from across the room on something smaller than some computer monitors. ...and dolgurnit we liked it that way you whippersnappers! =D

They burn better

We had a colonial maple tv cabinet! Cause you know, we wanted to be historically accurate!😂

Yes.

13? same age here.

Wow.

Like in that Tom Hanks movie?

Yaaasssss!!!!💯👍🏿

Back When Doritos tasted Great, 3 kinds of cheese!!! Wow!!! Still Remember that!! They're kinda Bland now!!😋☹

Oh.

I remember 😢I lived in NJ. My daughter was born June 1983. I was just 20 😁

💔

True.

Wow.

I bet their customers are from the red light district.

Kids, get your parent's permission first! 😲

Of course they did. Wasn't too many years before this that George Carlin recorded _FM & AM,_ where he joked about hidden sex in advertising. Hilarious routine about how cigarette ad slogans were obscene, but as always with Carlin, there was a lot of truth in it. All kidding aside, I'm 100% sure that company knows that one of the things on couples' minds when they're shopping for a new bed is, "How durable is it? Because we can get really vigorous." They figured out a subliminal way to tell them, "You can bounce up and down on this thing all you want and it'll hold up nicely." Without having to come right out and say what they're saying, y'know?

Okay.

I turned 10 in ‘83. Great times

Wow.

Ahhhh a remember Ronald reagan..and allll of these commercial s

As a former Lockheed employee in the 1980’s, so do I! He was daddy war bucks!

There is a new starting with China

True.

True.

True.

Who knew the sign for victory would end up being a peace sign? So right

It sure didn’t catch on. Lol.

Wow.

Me too pal!

Good.

May '83, here! *high fives*

Yes.

Why should it be offensive?

@@joannegoebel4642 the social justice pussys would call it a micro aggression and say it's toxic masculinity!

@@joannegoebel4642 One nation indivisible "under god" which is only added relatively recently in the anti communism fervor of mccarthyism years of the late 40's, early 50's etc, same with "in god we trust" going on the bills, otherwise I don't think they can argue much, sure there is contradictions to equality, justice for all but not to the point of cancelling, censoring

Yes.

Shango066 may know how to fix that, or he'll make some sort of funny sarcastic comments about it.

I was rockin a bkack and white tv in '83. Age 10

What.

Yummy 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋.

Probably because they're vintage now... a time long gone

Yes.

Back when MTV still had...er....music.
