Dr. F: Gooood morning, Satel-lame-ite of Love! Say, you ever stop to think about nostalgia?
F: All the time!
Dr. F: Eeeexactly. And the great thing about nostalgia is that it screws those rose-colored glasses onto your face good and tight, preventing you from seeing things for the slop they really are! Take, for example, that wondrous decade know as The Eighties!
F: The eighties?! I WEAR MY SUUUUUUUUUNGLASSES AT NIGHT, SOOOO--
Dr. F: So you can keep track of the visions in your dreams, yes, those Eighties. Nearly everyone looks back on the Eighties with at least some degree of nostalgic fondness. Well, I hypothesize that if you were drenched in 100% Pure Concentrated Eighties for, say, a week’s time, you’d rethink that nostalgic fondness right quick! Which is why I’m going to do just that.
F: --SHE’S A MANIAC, MAAAAANIAC, ON THE FLOOOR--
Dr. F: Frank here will provide some musical accompaniment. Let’s see how long you can survive this nightmarish decade, lab rats! nnhnnhnnhHAHAHA!
F: --AND SHE’S DANCING LIKE SHE’S NEVER DANCED BEFOOOORE--
Dr. F: And speaking of nightmares from your past, your experiment this week brings us back to that plagiarized lameness known as Eragon! Quit dragon tail and read that rot!

[OOC]
It’s Eighties Week on the Satellite of Love! Your characters may encounter a number of different effects...
- Characters may frequently hear synth music around the ship, or find a lot of it in the media deck.
- Any characters that are of high school age may suddenly appear to be in their thirties. The change is only in looks, not mentally.
- Female characters may find that their hair is poofy and frizzy, and male characters may find that their hair is feathered or mulleted. Attempting to restyle hair back to its original style usually results in disaster.
- An abundance of leg warmers, skintight leotards and wristbands appear in the theatrical deck and even in characters’ closets.
- Any characters that have an eighties version of themselves (My Little Pony, Transformers, Tron, etc.) will suddenly find themselves appearing as their eighties versions.
Your experiment is chapter three and four of Eragon, and is now available in the mod email. The following characters have been assigned riff duty:
Aqua
Riku
Harry Dresden
Current SOL morale is:
Positive
(As a side note: we can't do prizes for lasertag yet, since we have NOT gotten replies yet from everyone who participated. Please make sure you reply to the post below with your characters' scores!)
