I was 16 in the mid 80s and going to clubs in NYC which was fabulous. Never carded, just had to show up looking glamorous and was ushered in.

It only happened a couple of times. My BF and I had to go to the ladies room and jump up and down and silent scream o get over it before going on the dance floor

Early 80s in Cambridge MA:
Date nights at Orson Welles Theater. Wursthouse or Athenian Taverna midweek dinners.
Roku or YenChing dinners.
Walking through Harvard Square. Getting DH his first and only tweed jacket and knit tie at Stonestreet's.
All the independent bookstores.
Getting our used 1976 Rabbit and driving to Concord and Lexington to see leaves. Getting pumpkins at a stand on Rt 2. Once even a fresh turkey. We were adventurous drivers, going to Sturbridge or Stockbridge even on icy roads for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. The Willow Pond Kitchen for lunches.

Ah, yes! Passing notes! And we folded them very elaborately.
