I'll stop the world and melt with you

related; I'd really recommend Donny Darko to anyone younger wondering what the 80s were like.

It really captures what the decade was like; something HORRIBLE is looming on the horizon, in fact horrible stuff is happening RIGHT FUCKING NOW, but the adult world doesn't want to even vaguely acknowledge anything bad or for that matter your needs (say, to get help for depression or be safe from bullies), instead you're supposed to cheer for the football team, praise Jesus, don't do drugs, enlist.
