there would be nothing to prevent the 99% from rightfully rising up against the 1%
Except for the other 1% who are trained and equipped to violently suppress the 98%. And if for whatever reason they fail to do the job, the killer robots will do it instead.

Put money in your 401k! Nothing else really matters as much.
you shall stone that man or woman to death with stones
Pretty specific - I guess that closes the “get them high” loophole.
As Moses said, “fuck the Cowboys”.
nor his manservant, nor his maidservant
“Slaves” in the original, but of course we can’t allow any hint of three thousand year old shit not being strictly relevant any more.
If George Lucas had directed Spinal Tap, he would have already gone back and made Stonehenge orange.
No … Wingdings.
I’m a school bus driver, and one of my weirder experiences is listening to a middle-school boy ripping on some middle-school girl for having “only” ten thousand followers.
Its pretty similar
No, that was the sequel.
Plot twist: Richard Gere was actually George Washington!
My memory is all fucked up too and I have to look this shit up. I could have sworn Security came out in 1984, and it was probably my favorite album of the 80s.
Nirvana always gets credit for putting the nail in the coffin of hair metal, but I think it was more Beavis and Butthead’s shtick of mocking 80s videos that did it.
Kids in The Hall
My favorite sketch show of all time, believe it or not. I’m squishing your head.
The Real World
Even the first Real World was a lot better than later years of MTV. I think one thing that MTV never gets credit for is helping to normalize homosexuality in US culture, which they did by always having a gay cast member in the show.
My family didn’t have cable TV growing up, so I had to watch MV3 which was a half-hour syndicated MTV knockoff out of Los Angeles where the videos always had a studio full of kids dancing superimposed over them. I was always self-conscious about dancing back then, but if you watch videos of 80s kids dancing you’ll realize that everybody danced like shit back then.
Back in spring of 1982
I think your memories are off a little date-wise. Bowie’s Let’s Dance was released in 1983 and Peter Gabriel’s Security was released in late 1982.
Martha Quinn
I’m still in love with her.
Pat’s
Lol you get assaulted just for going to Pat’s.
Only tangentially related, but: I’m a school bus driver and a very popular name for kids these days is “Rhys”. I really enjoy asking them why they’re named after chocolate-covered peanut butter as it drives them crazy.
