A 1980s teen....

(I promise. I am really trying really hard not to have this blog wind up being ALL PONIES ALL THE TIME but it's the end of the semester and looking at pony pictures is my stress-reliever of choice right now. And I think this is awesome, cool, and radical, because I was a teen in the 1980s:)

Even though I am a firm supporter of FLUTTERSHY IS THE BEST PONY, I think I would have dressed most like Rarity of the ponies here. Well, Rarity or Applejack.

(ETA: LL, if you're reading this, do you remember that deerstalker hat I had and wore in high school? Dang, I wonder at that now...in some ways I was kind of a pretentious show-off.)

(I wonder what a 1980-ized Derpy would look like? Would she be nerd-chic, or would she look like something out of Napoleon Dynamite? Or would she slide even more into Cyndi Lauper-at-her-most-polychromatic-state than some of the ponies portrayed here?)

Is Pinkie Pie wearing leg warmers? That's so 80s.

Hey, I remember that hat and I liked it! No odder than some of the getups I wore. Was I color blind back then? Sheesh!
