The Reprover could only exist in a world relatively similar to ours.
With not too many extra-terrestrials, for example.
it was important that it was slightly out of sync with reality.
The 80s provided us with an opportunity to carry out some amusing research…
… into clothing, hair styles, accessories.
With all the excesses of that decade, it was very tempting…
… to try to be smarter than that period,
simply because we have 25 years of hindsight.
That would have been too easy, and not necessarily funnier.
There are still, today, people who have lived through the 80s.
Perhaps you know some yourself,
perhaps your parents have never found the strength…
… to talk to you about it.
I believe that it was a matter of respect,
respect for those who survived that era…
… and for the memory of those who are no longer with us.
