Gen X Dad
Canada
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 29 ก.ค. 2006
A child of the 80's who loves pop culture, wrestling, hair metal, and old school Dungeons & Dragons.
Born and live in Winnipeg, Canada, and for some reason am ferociously supportive of my hometown.

Weirder Science - A.I. aged Gary, Wyatt, Lisa
Using just the most basic AI image generators I started to try and age various 80's movie characters. While individual generations were interesting, attempts at groups were down right hilarious.
It got my adolescent mind going with all the attention over the past few years on poly-relationships. I attached different stories in my mind to the different pics generated.
Most of all, this is just supposed to be fun. If you are easily offended then just leave. The internet is a big place, you should be able to find safety somewhere.

Gen X'ers watch Bodkin over Baby Reindeer
มุมมอง 2165 หลายเดือนก่อน
I've watched both of these recent Netflix shows and here's the reasons why I think my fellow generation x babes and dudes will prefer Bodkin over Baby Reindeer. Let me know if you have watched either or both and what you thought of them. If you were born from around 1965-1979 what kind of new shows do you like and what kind don't you like?

มุมมอง 2945 หลายเดือนก่อน
Most of us Gen-X'ers are now approaching retirement, or have retired in. the last few years. Of course I have my normal list of things I want to do when I retire, like travel.

Be nice to each other!
Gen-X Dad Says DON'T "Fake It Till You Make It" ! It's Horrible Advice!
มุมมอง 6825 หลายเดือนก่อน
While a few of the younger generations will work for progressive companies like google and shopify, most of you will still work in traditional roles, and find yourselves dealing with bosses ranging from the younger side of Boomers, all Gen-X'ers, and some older Millennials. Fake It Till You Make It, is a product of a different world that you won't be living in. It is terrible advice. Be genuine...
Help! I Need a Cover for my Novel!
มุมมอง 2709 หลายเดือนก่อน
Hello Everyone. I’m looking for help in developing a novel cover for my coming of age 80’s book called Battery Hill. I’ll use it for you tube and wattpad, but I also intend to self publish a small run of books as well. For me the cover of the actual physical book is much more important than the virtual because really that’s my bucket list item. I’m okay with paying a small amount to someone who...
Shadows Over Tulsa: Chapter 1: A Strange Homecoming (Outsiders/Stranger Things Crossover)
มุมมอง 1.1K10 หลายเดือนก่อน
This is the first chapter in a project I started that combines some elements of Stranger Things with the world of The Outsiders. The events happen in the summer of '76, a couple years after the events of the book. I'm still working (editing) my first novel "Battery Hill" set in the 80's, but sometimes its fun to try something else. This story is not as polished as "Battery Hill" so hopefully yo...
Relive Bright Lights, Big City in 6 minute music video
มุมมอง 2.8Kปีที่แล้ว
Set to The Church's haunting song "Under the Milky Way" relive this tour de force 80's movie in 6 minutes. While this 1988 film starring two of Canada's finest, Michael J. Fox & Kiefer Sutherland, isn't usually mentioned as one of the most iconic 80's movies I think it has unduly been forgotten. This is a great story of the excesses of the 80's and the road to redemption in the big city that ha...

Aldo Nova Dream Set List
มุมมอง 488ปีที่แล้ว
While I have done my dream set lists for top selling artists Bruce Springsteen and Jimmy Buffett in the past, I decided to do something different and create one for the criminally underrated Canadian rock artist Aldo Nova. Aldo opened for my first concert ever in 1982, and I have tickets to see him again in November, over 40 years later. So here is my dream set list for that show, and some thou...
Follow Your Heart (80's movie tribute)
มุมมอง 6Kปีที่แล้ว
Canada's second greatest trio Triumph"s "Follow Your Heart" (1984) baselines some 80's movie clips. Most of my vids I like to include a mix of stuff from around 75-95, the sweet spot for Gen-X'ers, and anything from movies, TV, celebrities, sports, wrestling, and just average people. However, for this one I stuck strictly to 80's movies. I hope you enjoy the video and take a few minutes to foll...

Aren't we all thinking about the years? They seem to go by so fast! Remember when the 2000's seemed like so far away from the 80's? Just crazy. The song is "Thinkin' About the Years" by Canadian pop/rock band Haywire. Clips may include; Adam West doing a commercial for Nick at Nite UHF some clips from a 60 Minutes special on Disco some clips from Haywire videos She's Having a Baby Blade Runner ...

17th of a rainy November... 2024 Brazil ♡ and nice to meet u guys
👏👏
I was in my 20s in the 80s..it was the BEST❤
I needed a break from November 2024. I miss the 80's 😢 Thank you for the nostalgic escape I need. 📼🎧
An era of everyone talking to one another face to face. You knew what a person meant when they said something. Messaging, posts, tweets, you are never quite sure of how to take dialogues today on impersonal media.
or being passed a note in class :)
Quer me matar de saudade!!!!! Anos 80 ......década de ouro .
Vivi essa época e foi maravilhosa! A vida era mais tranquila e divertida!
Oh shyte... this pulls at my heart strings badly.
🍀💚💚
I was a kid in the 80s pre teens and teen in the 90s. And I do remember all this amazing music , the fashion. It was great times..
The god old dayd

Best years of my life
The credits...

What's the the random Rambo (2008) clip?!? BOT BOT BOT
@@TheOriginalFreak just an editing mistake not AI just human error
Magic ❤ dreams
The 80’s, definitely the best of the best❤❤❤❤❤
Yeah you’ll be happy……..you just won’t know it, that’s all😢 I knew I was happy in the 80s but looking back now, I didn’t realise how happy!
i think that may be the truest quote from an 80's movie, even above Ferris' if you don't look around once in a while
@gen-x-dad yeah it hits you right there doesn't it. Last year I was out walking the dogs with my wife. A car stopped next to us and it was the a yellow VW Golf Mk1, the same as my very first car. I said to my wife that seeing that makes me sad, it reminds me of being 17 with the world at my feet...my life ahead of me and all my hopes it dreams....and now the realisation of being 50 and realising that I was no different than anybody else...... oh to be 17 again!!!!
I grew up watching his movies, and have enjoyed every one of them. Gen X 4 life.
What is the movie with the blonde with short hair crying?
Some Kind of Wonderful. Mary Stuart Masterson
@ ok thanks! I vaguely remembered the scene from when I was a kid
Who was the young lady at 3:42 kissing John Cusack?
Daphne Zuniga from The Sure Thing
Miss the 80’s I have started binge watching the Love Boat with my Lady
The greatest decade ever
I’m 60 and I wish I was back there again❤
This is brilliant, hilarious, sentimental, heart-tugging, and perfectly composed ❤ It's a permanent video on my playlist, and I always stop what I'm doing to watch it. At the end of the video, I catch a snippet of another song, playing in one of the clips... I know I know the song!! But I dont know!! Help me! What song is that little snippet?!?! And thank you soooo much for this video!
the jay and silent bob scene, i believe is from Clerks III, and the song is My Chemical Romance - Welcome to the Black Parade, although I'm not really familiar with the work
Beam me back to the best times of my life. I don't like it here in the future.
Love this song, perfect for these montage scenes. 80's were the best
Wish I was back there…..
This generation could use John Hughes unfortunately there will never be another I’m glad I got to experience his movies as I pass them onto my son
❤
Which movie is the scene at 3:30 of this video?
@@Lonix1 weird science
Seriously?
@@Jimmster66 yes, its the end of the movie when our heroes say good night to their dates, the popular girls who have now seen the light.
@@gen-x-dad it was a rhetorical question
Class of 93

We were happy once..
we just didn't know it
Does anyone know the movie at 3:11-3:12? I have seen it....but its driving me crazy not remembering.
Real Genius
Was born in 75... Im so sad .... today
Goonies? Karate kid? Dirty dancing? Thrashin ? Neverending story? E.T. ? Porkys ? Escape from new york? Big trouble in Chinatown? The thing ? And more more more.....
I wish my own children got to experience the era of no technology, now we’re in a place where kids would freak out without! A time When songs and movies had meaning !!
The 80's was the best decade ever!!!
Most epic films. ❤
Thank You...
God bless Lowen and Navafarro for this amazing song
I'd give up all the technologies of today just to go back when you had to pass notes and use payphones....social media has ruined us as a society
18 to 28 in the 80's. The only thing that tops that period of my life was having my kids. Everything else makes me mourn the passing of the 80's. All my friends are dying off slowly. Lost my younger brother 10 years ago. Thanks for making this video.
