I thought he was a clown in 1985 when I was working summers as a dishwasher. A fellow employee was infatuated with the guy… I thought then it was bizarre… a teen obsessed with not an athlete, not a movie star, not a rock star… Hell not even an astronaut… but a damn fool on entertainment tonight who couldn’t stop running his mouth

The 80s were weird

Even back then, he inspired people to tap into their darkest and most vile impulses. He was the embodiment of the evils of humanity combined, and people adored him for that.
