He was a novelty act. I wonder if he still pities the fools.

The 80s. They were full of humor and kitsch. I miss all of that very much.

The 80s were all about gimmicks. Wrestling, music, comedy. Everything had to have a gimmick to get any notice. Mr. T fit in perfectly.

Everything was BIG, WEIRD, and FUN. Gayest decade EVER.

I lived in Lake Forest in the 90s, just a few blocks from Mr. T. Despite the "tree scandal," he was a kind and friendly person and devoted to charity work.
