* AmbiguousTimePeriod: According to the opening narration, the events of the musical take place in "the mid to late Eighties, roughly". It never gets more specific than that (there's a mention that UsefulNotes/RonaldReagan is President, but that really doesn't narrow it down any), allowing the writers to include any element of TheEighties they like without worrying too much about how it all fits together.

It's already redundant to pothole a phrase to itself. It's doubly redundant to format the link Like This instead of Like This. And it's triply redundant to format the link Like This when it's potholing another phrase. The only way this link could have more layers of redundancy is if it had included the Main/ namespace. Please read the Administrivia/ pages on link formatting post haste.
