Bert Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 If you could choose to live in one decade to live in that you wasn't around for then which would it be?? I don't know why but i'd have loved to have been round in the 70's.
Sparky Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 old feckers bang on about the 60s , so id go back there and you would have seen england win a world cup
Head Honcho Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 For me it would be the 60's, 3 FA Cup finals for City, what more excuses do you need!
Knighton Matt Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 For me it would be the 60's, 3 FA Cup finals for City, what more excuses do you need! Vast quantities of casual sex?
The People's Hero Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 I quite like living now, to be fair. If it had to be one from the past, I'd quite like it to have been the sixties/seventies. Lots of sex.
davieG Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 Vast quantities of casual sex? Well I must have missed that Another Urban myth, compared to today we were practically celibate, well I was
andyb92 Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 I quite like living now, to be fair. If it had to be one from the past, I'd quite like it to have been the sixties/seventies. Lots of sex. hell yeh 60's any day of the week
The People's Hero Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 Well I must have missed that Another Urban myth, compared to today we were practically celibate, well I was I am celibate. No sex before marriage and I don't believe in marriage. I'm therefore screwed, or not.
davieG Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 I'd like to be in my twenties now if it's all the same to you lot, sod the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's.
Knighton Matt Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 Well I must have missed that Another Urban myth, compared to today we were practically celibate, well I was I bet the women back then were an altogether classier breed than your average chavette! Quality not quantity!
Knighton Matt Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 I am celibate. No sex before marriage and I don't believe in marriage. I'm therefore screwed, or not. Looks like you screwed yourself with your views...quite literally in this case.
The People's Hero Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 I bet the women back then were an altogether classier breed than your average chavette! Quality not quantity! Quality AND quantity!
davieG Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 I bet the women back then were an altogether classier breed than your average chavette! Quality not quantity! I would imagine that proportionally things haven't changed that much, it's just that with a larger population there's more numbers in every class, style and type of person.
The People's Hero Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 I personally believe that there is a growing 'class' of people who are encouraged never to work or do anything for the public good. Whether or not this is just something I have become more aware of as I've grown older or whether that class really is growing, I'm not sure. Answers on a postcard. I've never seen so many burberry cap, trackies tucked in to socks, gleaming white (newly purloined - five finger discount) trainers and fake designer goods wearing lads and huge hooped earing, over the top make-up, hair pulled tightly back (optional bleach) (chav face lift) wearing, pram pushing 15 year old girls in Maidstone in all my time.
The People's Hero Posted 6 March 2006 Posted 6 March 2006 I bet it's like today though, most of the women you see wearing hotpants/miniskirts/other revealing items are some of the most unattractive specimens around. There should be a law passed against it!

There should be a law passed against it! I suggest a mini-skirt license. Apply, I'll test you, if you fail, no mini-skirts for you.

john_lcfc Posted 7 March 2006 Posted 7 March 2006 id like to av been around in the 70s 80s as a young man
Lemon Harpic Posted 8 March 2006 Posted 8 March 2006 I personally believe that there is a growing 'class' of people who are encouraged never to work or do anything for the public good. Whether or not this is just something I have become more aware of as I've grown older or whether that class really is growing, I'm not sure. Answers on a postcard. The fact is that we live in a society where many people grow up without any hope. The doors that are open to people from a comfortable middle class background like you and I (I don't know anything about you, but I bet I'm right, aren't I?) are slammed shut in the faces of poorer people. They are expected to work their fingers to the bone for crappy wages in menial jobs while being abused by smug inadequate bullies who look down on them because they don't make much money. And that's just the lucky ones... When you create a sytem that robs people of a future, that tries to take away their dignity and self-esteem, is it any wonder that these same people try to opt out of the system? Society has earmarked a life of poverty and servitude for these human beings. Society demands that the poor perform mindnumbing, spirit-crushing labour so that their boss can drive about in a BMW. It's easy to look on this 'class' as scroungers and degenerates. It takes a lot more intelligence, a lot more class, to ask uncomfortable questions about the way we live now. And er,.. I'd have liked to have been around in the seventies as a young man.

I can only look forwards to the day that you make the transition from mediocre keyboard warrior to eminent politician, putting your so obviously correct, reasoned and thought out ideas in to action and making this country a better place to live for us all.
