I'm still a tad confused here. From reading the rules, it seems that we are supposed to think up our own original words. But there seems to be a mixture of posts in this thread. Some are original words and some are actual phrases used in the 80s. Which is it supposed to be? I would assume we would have to make up our own words because posting already existing words/phrases doesn't call for much creativity.

The days of 80s culture are all contained in a few simple words but only one has been selected to define the era of big hair, neon spandex, and the Rubik's cube.

After much deliberation, The winner of the “Define the 80’s” contest is Gil Varod who will be attending the OPENING NIGHT OF THE WEDDING SINGER tomorrow at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre.

And the Winning 80’s Word is…..

Word: to Bueller


Definition: to be able to get through a seemingly-impossible situation, the kind of situation that is so implausible it could only be written by John Hughes.


Sentence: What do you mean I can't skip work with an excuse about going to visit my "cousin" Michael J. Fox, then get into Shea Stadium by prentending I'm Jon Bon Jovi, be invited to throw the first pitch via a total snafu involving a Cabbage Patch Kid bribe, and then take Bo Jackson's Limo home... I can totally Bueller that.
