What Was The Best Decade?

[McBain]

I hate to admit it, but we are living right now in the best Decade.

Do you really want to have to go to the Dentist in the 60's??

Get one of them Bowl Hair Cuts with those sheep Shears?

Go to the Movies or Hop on a Train to be raped by Cigarette Smoke?

Be touched by Jimmy Saville and not realise it was bad for 30 years?

Im voting for now because Chicks are Hotter, Footy is Better, Clothing styles are borrowed from every era and no one cares what you wear and are made from materials that won't aid in Spontaneous Combustion.

And we got Playstation, online Porn, Techno, Cargo Pants, Air Max, Weed you can buy in Tobacconists and HD Digital LED LCD screens.

Plus weve probably cured a bunch of diseases you would most likely get back in time.

McBain is right in a way. You can always look back.

The 60s was the decade that changed everything , and as such wins by a distance.

Has to be the 60's. Greatest music, fantastic football teams, World Cup winners and the finest Everton team I've ever seen......

Now you all know I reckon the 1980's were boss (with certain conditions...see note). I'd loved to have been a proper teen in that decade. So good.

What is your fave decade?

AND WHY FFS

note
-----
- I love the 80's mainly in America. It looked ace. Think Bill and Ted, Back To The Future, Bueller. Boss. Compared to Britain in the 80's. Grange Hill. Just say no. NO
- Everton were beyond boss.
- 80's music. Gets better with age beyond all expectations.
- 80's stuff. Ace. Gameboy. Rubiks Cube. Sinclair C4.
- 80's TV. Thundercats. Knightmare. Magnum PI. BOSS.

The 1980s. Boss.

You?

I love how you think being a teen in the 80's is like the pinnacle of humankind. I was and it wasn't. But I did have some good times

I think I would have rather had access to Satellite TV, the internet and cell phones then. Now that I think about it, I'm not really sure how we actually got on now that I have these things.

Oh and the chicks were absolutely not as hot as they are now. Note even close. The big fashion statement at my school was for girls to wear their dad boxers as shorts and sew up the fly. I **** you not.

The Golden 20s, a great time to live in America.

Unless you were poor, or black.

The best time to be alive is now. We are at the pinnacle of technology and medicine. We can always look back and enjoy previous times too.

Groucho nails it.

Nostalgia always makes me uncomfortable, to be honest.

We're on a downward slope mate when it comes to being civilised......

Thanks, but I pinched the general idea from Stephen Fry

It's just that you could get away with it, no one questioned anything that they were told up until then.

I put it down to the fact people wanted to believe so badly in things after the Wars, things were put on a far higher pedestal due to the emergence of the Media and Technology.

Righto.

I think people are really just talking about what decade they prefer cause of stuff like music, films, tv sports and all that.

I mean i voted 90s yet if i could wipe the entire decade out of existence i would.
