The sky was very blue, the sun was yellow. Food was nutritious and people were very kind, more wholesome than now. I think around the time Disney channel, Brittney spear and backstreat boys blew up people started degenerating. Then 9/11 seemed to change everyones attitude...or we all just fell asleep after that. Either way, shit was better up here in the siburbs of Minnesota.

>>128094614
It wasn't that great, there was still niggers around

>>128095138
What did people do while sitting around in the car or waiting in line etc... now everyone is buried in a phone.

>>128095373
read the tabloid magazines you still see in the queues

>>128095373
Talk to each other. Make new friends. Listen to walkman or tapes in the car.

>started degenerating

Yeah. The 60s, hippies, birth control, 2nd wave feminism, communist professors, and the WASP/Jew war had nothing to do with anything.

I'm 33. Growing up, I remember reading a lot of books. Seinfeld was huge. Cars weren't as nice as they are now; air bags were not so common. Smoking sections in restaurants were a lot more common. The music was great.

Almost completely different than it is now. The world was much much smaller without the internet. We didnt have a global auhority to turn to, to answer our questions so urban legends were very popular. Politics was less discussed. You spent way more time with friends doing stuff because you couldnt text them and it was harder to coordinate so you just spent all day with them. The country was optimistic, people talked openly about how much they loved America and being white was okay.

>>128096527
sounds amazing

>>128096346
I'm also 33.

People were generally a lot more friendly. Smartphones and internet social media changed everything. People had manners. swearing was a lot less common even proactive. Howard Stern was socially relevant (now everything is like him thanks jews). South Park which is nothing was once very shocking.

Music was really good from the late 80s into the early 1990s. But hip hop exploded and by the late 90s it was total shit. Limp fucking Bisket.

People were also a lot less afraid of each other. But the rash of school shootings created a lot of distrust. I got in trouble post Columbine for literally nothing.

I miss AIM.

>>128094614
Being born in 1985 is the ideal, because every school grade you grew up in is attributed to the corresponding year that it is.

1991 = 1st grade
1992 = 2nd grade
1993 = 3rd grade

>>128096346

Pretty much the same but the Internet was not so evolved and TVs were lower resolution. Politically, the country was a lot less divided, although Clinton's impeachment was a deal. There was a bit of a "PC" phase back then but nothing like what we have now. I also kind of feel like people were somewhat less sophisticated (fuck, we used to watch Dr. Quinn: Medicine Woman), but at least people seemed to agree on more. I honestly feel like race was waaaay less of an issue--there was a black Ghostbuster, after all!

Oh and of course one huge difference: nobody had piercings piercings all over their faces or tattoos everywhere. The most you got was a Pamela Anderson-style barbed wire around your bicep or maybe something tribal, and even those were for idiots.

>>128096867

Sounds normal, what we have today is what sounds like a nightmare or a warning tale about marxism infiltration.

>>128096527
This. It was much harder to come by info like leaks or new happenings. Slower pace since info couldn't travel as fast. More difficult to obtain red pilled materials, had to be hard copy.
Also Voltron, Trasformers, original NES & Atari, the music was unfuckingbelievable, the chicks were right at the point of peak slut but still feminine cuties before it cascaded into what you see today. It was bretty guud.

>>128094614
Big box stores weren't everywhere. Coffee/drinks didn't have a million choices. Cars weren't all aerodynamic bubbles,. Pagers and then cellies were the only affordable mobile coms. LQGBTQRSTBBQ+ wasn't being programmed to preschoolers yet, Mass mind control via gov't sponsored terrorism and contolled media.

Porn on dialup sucked, but you could keep a boner for hours.

No real internet so most of us were in various cults. Also, cheese tasted better.

>>128094614
I'm 40 years old (and white). And I grew up in Baltimore City.

I grew up in the 1980s. Neighborhoods were still segregated at the time... so niggers didn't come through white neighborhoods, or they would get their heads bashed in, and vice-versa for whites in black neighborhoods.

It was such a GREAT era.

Nobody sat in the house, you ALWAYS were outside. Their was no internet, which was a good thing. There were no cell phones. If you were waiting for a girl to call, you had to wait until you went in the house and someone told you she called.

There were only 3 main television stations, and prime time was at 8pm.

The style was great. We didn't have the internet, so there was no "avatar effect", which means, you HAD to go outside to be noticed, so people had to dress as "funky" as possible to out-do the next person.

There's much more, but it was such a geat era.

I'm 37, so this was during my teenage years. That may color my views. The world was shit, but you focused on your happiness.

The economy was getting out of the shitter so you had families that were doing well and those that were not. An odd time economically. If you were poor (my senpai was) Your ass got beat at school and no one gave a fuck. Boy or girl. It was still very white with the typical group of Mexicans, blacks and adopted asian kids being in small minority. Title 9 came out so I was forced to take Industrial Tech (I just did what they told me to do not understanding what they were talking about).

Polically-Socially the world was on fire and in chaos, unfiltered adult themes were not filtered out. Crack and AIDS were to be feared. Friends got hooked and you never saw them again. Crazy rumors which probably were not true. After school specials were the method of choice by parents and teachers to address issues. Movies like New Jack City, Unsolved Mysteries and whatever skin flick you could catch on Skinimax taught you what was going on in the world. I was watching Tiannamen Square Protests on CNN when it went down and I thought is was some rebroadcast of old shit until my Mom clarified that it was happening.

The radio was king though, and we all had boom boxes and shitty headphones. Lots of mixed tapes. Dr. Dimento, INXS, White Snake, Billy Idol.

VHS tapes were expensive to buy so everyone rented them. If you had two VCRs you could make a copy and sell bootlegs. Often advertise in magazine back pages to request "lists" of what was available. I knew a few people that did this until late 90s. Hilarious to think back at that.

We also hung out at malls all summer long for AC and relieve boredom.

>>128095373
Something called "thinking".

>>128096346
>what was everyday life like compared to now?

I’m not exactly your target group, but my college years were late 80s/early 90s so I’ll give it a go anyway.

I grew up in a small ranching community and had only been to a proper city once, for 2 days, when I turned 18. I moved from there to Phoenix for school and experiences felt new; as in, all I really knew about the place is that it was a city and it gets really hot there. I remember driving through it once when I was about 5, going to visit my uncle in Globe, but that’s it. I saw someone die for the first time a week after I moved there, a nigger beat his girlfriend’s head in with a hammer in the parking lot of my apartments right when I got home from work one night. I couldn’t afford a home phone then, so I called the police from a payphone by the pool. Saw someone die for the second time a couple of months later when a nigger shot up a house party in Tempe. I learned really quick to avoid niggers as they weren’t at all like they appeared in movies and on TV—I’d never even seen one IRL until I was 17.

Grocery stores used to have sales, without scanning a card to let them track all of your purchases.
Like I mentioned, I didn’t have a phone, so anyone who wanted to talk to me had to come over and knock on my door.
New music was a big deal, as where I grew up only had 3 radio stations, 2 were country/western and 1 was top 40. Concerts were amazing then.
Only had 4TV stations growing up—CBS, NBC, PBS (which was unwatchable most of the time because of shitty signal), and a WGN rebroadcast from Chicago.
I shot my first gun when I was three, went hunting the first time at 5, and was given a 10/22 as my first gun when I turned 8. Sometimes I’d ride the school bus to my friend’s place, with that 10/22 that I put in my locker while in school, and stay overnight. We’d go shoot cans and prairie dogs before having dinner with his parents and doing homework.

NO Starbucks.

>it was one huge party until fucking cell phones and the internet came along and fucked up our privacy...fucking technology.

Leftest teachers then, would be considered right wing now. Girls were still sluts but they only slutted with one guy at a time. Underground music was harder to come by as all the good bands of the 60's and 70's really started to suck, except for the Grateful Dead of coarse. Acid, booze and weed ruled the day while coke was strictly for the weekends. That was until crack showed up and made degenerates of everybody without impulse control. Food was better, water and air were cleaner and we had more rights than we do now. People didn't go to jail for traffic violations and unpaid summons. Drugs got you probation at best and DUI's were for people that got belligerent and lippy. Girl's hairstyles were so fucking stupid but stds were uncommon unless you went to nigger town.

Born in 1980. The only super big happenings I remember pre 9/11 were space shuttle blowing up, Gulf War and fall of Soviet Union. Other than that life was pretty quiet and I spent most time playing in the woods like a good lad.

I think you had to interact more with people.

There were no cell phone or internet for the most part so all the tech stuff wasn't happening.

The biggest change I notice (and I'm an OLD faggot) is the politics now are extremely shrill.

When I look back at high school I swear to god... I didn't even know who was right wing or left wing among my peer group. It just wasn't nearly as political.

Kids weren't expected or encouraged to be activists. They would do things like volunteer or donate to various causes...it's not like they didn't 'care'... but there didn't seem to be any rancour about it.

Somewhere along the line - this changed drastically.. I noticed it first in college in the early 90's.

Perhaps it was different for others because I was from a largely white community and we all had similar backgrounds...

Even at Christmas we always get into politics now... and NEVER did that till maybe 8-10 years ago.

Also the video games were fairly crude... there was a lot more sports and outdoor activities. (it seems anyway)

>>128100346
Yeah I remember when dad brought one home and they were totally unheard of. Mum didn't even believe him when he explained what it was. He put it up on a case like a prized vase and showed everyone that came over. We also got a 486 computer specially imported from Japan which wasn't even available in Australia yet. We didn't even know what we could use it for. It only had DOS.

>>128101090
none of you faggots had, aol ,prodigy etc...?

>>128095599
No they didn't. Lying fuck.

>>128099809
Social rejects...you had to go to your grandparents house more in summer. Hung out with friends or talked on the phone a lot and tried to meet at XYZ location. When Jacob Wetterling disappeared in midwest, it made us less adventerous. D&D wasn't in my age group. By early 90s It was more Nintendo and that damn Legends of Link or whatever you could trade at Funcoland of friends. Really you just stayed up as much as you could to watch Cinemax for the dirty shit, HBO for Tales from the Crypt (that maybe was mid 90s) and tried not to get beat by the kids with the long hair and skateboards. If you had a computer you could try bulletin boards, but I only got to talk to supermarket accountants on that thing. Lots of tetris. Fucking late 90s was the shit with AOL and Prodigy though. Really you just did your own thing.

...It was a lot easlier to steal shit. No RFID chips or sensors. Cops were more lenient. Parents were doing their own shit so you could easily fucking hide things. And schools were not up your ass...I think I missed 35 days of class per year and still graduated with HS honors.

>>128101090
im 30 from small town, never knew any of my friends political views thru age 22. lost touch in college years but now thanks to facebook i know who is what. i blame zuck

>>128101174
Yes we had AOL. I entered a chat room and some girl opened a privste convo and asked if I wanted to be her boyfriend. I said I didn't even know who she was or what she looked like. She called me a loser and blocked me. Those were the days.

>>128097483
>>128097483
Yup.

>>128101478
i remember the mtv chat rooms were super populated and everyone talked about greenday

>>128094614

Early to mid-80s were the best, late 80s were still pretty fucking awesome, early 90s shit started to suck a bit, and by mid-90s, we were headed quickly toward the shitty state we're in now.

Being born in the early 70s was optimal time to be alive to be the last to know real freedom and innocence before the 90s flushed it all away.

>>128099809
In the 80's they formed punk rock bands and did PCP.

>>128101560
Yup. My friend came over and learned we had internet. Asked if I wanted to see some boobs. I said no way that's pretty bad dude. It took like a minute to load one pic of low quality tits. Now it's like HD bluray quality of a poor lass gargling 80 loads

>>128101174
>none of you faggots had, aol ,prodigy etc...?

AOL, Prodigy, etc. weren't big until the end of the 90s.
Tech was changing rapidly, but most of us oldfags used dial-up BBS to troll back then.

Buying a 28.8 modem let you shitpost at lightspeed, for 2 hours a day.

Played outside a lot.

If you called someone's house and they weren't there, they may as well be on the moon - you're not reaching them.

To have a song you liked you had to tape the radio onto a cassette.

Mafia crime was still a public thing. I remember Gotti getting arrested.

As said elsewhere - extremely cools toys/cartoons. Transformers particularly.

Pen-pals was fun. i'm half french but grew up in germany, having pen-pals in France and Canada made me keep my french skills fresh and the british chick and south african dude I wrote with taught me a lot about different language versions.

It was incredible, but none of us knew how good it was. The cars were cool, the music rocked, women were women (not maladjusted feminazi fuckwits losing their shit at you for holding a door open) and the movies were cool as fuck. Ever wonder why Hollywood is perpetually remaking shit from the 80s and 90s? Because it was like the top of the bell curve for creativity. 1985-1995 music was fucking amazing.

Feel free to add

43 year old here. I grew up in a very conservative rural community in Eastern Oregon.

Everyone had a huge boner for Ronald Reagan. I was expected to adore him. By the tail end of his 2nd term he started getting twisted up in the Iran Contra shit and all his supporters were such fair weather fans. People would argue over whether he was corrupt or whether he had alzheimers but it was always followed up with ".. I mean I'm no fan but .."

Tons of gang violence on the news. I was untouched by it. Massive skinhead movement, again I was untouched by it.

Skateboarding blossomed out of the retarded carve this carve that phase into a genuine sport with rad tricks. I immersed myself into it. Huge new innovations every day. Nothing like today's tricks but this was the era where it all started.

Fuckin sick music. Sick music. Rap evolved into hip hop and god damn was it good. Punk rock evolved from retarded noise to focused rage. Heavy metal was utter perfection.

TV shows sucked. Nothing but canned laughter and stale jokes. Simpsons were pretty cool. So was SNL. Lots of great movies though.

What do you want to know? AMA I guess

>>128094614
You rode your bike down to the local Blockbuster or family run video store with your friends to rent movies/games. It was social, it was fun times. The internet is the best and worst thing to happen in my lifetime.

>>128094614
There were a lot less brown people where I live

It was a lot easier to find a decent paying job

No zero hour contracts, agencies didn't have the monopoly on job allocation

Sundays were actually quiet

I miss the 90s like fuck.

You play outside with neighbor kids, even if you don't like them or their games. Use plenty of imagination and read books because video games are indoors or take more batteries than your parents are willing to buy for you. You only have one screen in the house, a small television with maybe 80 channels and your internet takes twenty minutes to load the hentai your 6-year-old self doesn't even know what to do with yet. You watch cartoons early Saturday mornings, some American, some carefully edited anime so that you can't tell its foreign but you still fall for the same anime tropes as today. Internet is paid for my-the-minute and it blocks phone calls. Your dad is always watching TV when he comes home at 5. You have to go to a rental store to watch movies.

That's basically it. The 2000s were much nicer.

Oldfag here. It just takes that one fantastic concert to make you understand.
Some are shit, sure. And some performers are shit at it and probably shouldn’t be doing live shows.
But the ones that are great are almost impossible to describe to someone who wasn’t there.

Gen X did luck out on the concert scene.
So far, I’ve seen live

Oingo Boingo (twice)—and, they were my first concert.
Billy Idol
Johnny Cash
Depeche Mode (twice)
Prince, Metallica (twice)
Guns n Roses, Front Line Assembly
Nirvana
Jane’s Addiction (twice)
Tom Waits (4 times)
Joe Jackson
Rammstein (twice)
Peter Murphy
They Might be Giants (3 times)
Erasure, New Order
Soundgarden
Gunther and the Sunshine Girls
Mannheim Steamroller, Radiohead
Love and Rockets, The B-52s
Garbage (twice)
GWAR, Marilyn Manson
The Cramps (twice)
Lords of Acid
Jesus and Mary Chain (twice)
KMFDM (4 times)
Nine Inch Nails (3 times)
David Bowie (twice)
Siouxsie and the Banshees
Skinny Puppy, Jesus Jones
Samantha Fox, Pantera
Kenny Rogers, Poison
Motorhead
Primus (twice)
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street band (3 times)
Concrete Blonde, Van Halen

Gin Blossoms
Ministry (twice)
Rob Zombie, Peter Gabriel
Rollins Band, The Pixies
Sonic Youth, Willie Nelson
Mojo Nixon, Front 242
Lamb of God
Social Distortion (3 times)
The first 4 Lollapalooza’s

and at least a dozen others I’m forgetting right now.
This isn’t even counting local bands or “DJs”.

Some were quite memorable.

to not sound cliche, it was more upfront socially and people were more nice and calm, you had more interactions, technology and the economy were at a good pace of growing, simple things were taken for granted, your mother didn't possibly have a penis, nothing was too advanced, you could share different opinions without being slandered, and in my area of Toronto you didn't have to deal with niggers a whole lot

Take away half the beaners and all the muslims

real nice

No one gave a fuck about calories and public gorguing wasn't offensive. Someone always picked up the check for the whole table. None of this check splitting Dutch shit.

Cable was easy to steal and a major status symbol at school.

Cheat codes/fight moves were currency at lunch tables.

Seeing people watch hours on end of the OJ trial was unnerving. There were couch potatoes, but obsessively watching one thing (bingeing) was disturbing to me.

G and L activism hated B and T. They swore + would never happen.

All I can think of at the moment.

The main difference to me is the lack of special snowflakes. Back then if a kid was into weird faggot shit like anime he would just get bullied until he stopped, then he would go the rest of his life being normal and you'd never have known he was a tard as a kid. Similarly if a kid was fat he'd get bullied until the start of the next school year when he came back from summer /fit/ as a fiddle and became one of the cool kids and you'd never know he used to be fat. Basically, there was individualism but degeneracy was quickly stamped out.

Compare to today where whatever degenerate nonsense you're into you can find someone else on the internet who's into the same trash, and they end up developing these communities where they tell each other it's okay to be a degenerate and they never change: it's okay to be fat, it's okay to like anime, etc, etc. In the 90s if one day a boy showed up to school with a purse he'd get his ass kicked. Sounds cruel, but fast forward 20 years and he's a grown man with a family and a career-- he's normal, he's successful, he's happy. Today if a kid brings a purse everyone tells him it's okay and then he goes online and finds these "articles" about trannies and starts thinking maybe he's genderfluid or whatever and next thing you know he's ruining his life taking estrogen supplements and wants to lop off his dick then we wonder why 20 years later he/she is depressed as shit, alone, and winds up committing suicide.

Basically, people have become complacent. Whatever fucked up shit is going on, people just ignore it rather than trying to correct it. You misbehaved as a kid in the 90s, you got your shit slapped and you didn't act out again. Now you'd be hard pressed to find a parent willing to discipline their child, and then you wonder why today's children are a bunch of self-entitled little shits.

Only communications were much different:

To play with your friends, you had to knock on their door and ask their mom if friend could come out. Sometimes mom would lie and say friend wasn't home or similar excuse.

You could also call friend's house phoneline, which might be busy, or friend's family member picks up and you ask them for friend.

If you had an esoteric interest, you enjoyed it alone.

In 2nd/3rd grade: after school, I would watch TV/play vidya/go over friend's house/read book/play with toys until dinner.

40yo here

Lived through the tail end of glam-music,punk and reggae, right into new-wave, 2nd wave ska, synthpop, funk and soul were still going strong, new-romantic, hip-hop with (breakdancing/boddy-poppping and robotics) glam-rock, metal, rock, then the house/rave scene kicked off bigtime, then into the early 90's when rock was dying out, grunge and the 90's alt-scene was starting, electronic/house still going strong, Britpop came to be and vanished.... Then the internet kicked in and society just changed for the better and the worse

It was a pretty insane couple of decades for music

Pretty much the same as the UK we had like 4 or 5 tv chanels in the country during the mid 80's and most of those stopped broadcasting around midnight, it wasn't until the late 80's when satelite and cable tv kicked off that things changed even then there were only around 32 channels.

>>128094614

I was born in 1980 and i remember the 80's fondly i watched a lot of MTV as a kid and loved Van Halen videos. I remember hardly ever seeing black people in stores and thinking they were weird and staring at them.

90's were kinda the same but MTV started playing gangster Rap got big and i started really hating niggers because of it. 90's still had cool cars like the Supra, Camaro, Jeeps before they turned into the rolling electrical abortions we have now. I really cant fucking stand modern cars that shit depresses me as much as our shitskin infestation.

I miss my white America

>>128105199
In the late 90s, as soon as I finished my homework every night, I watched sitcoms with my parents until bedtime. As an adult, I realize how pathetic they were, wasting their lives on SHITTY shows.

Also, as an adult, I realize I'm not much better, binge-watching full season torrents every night (albeit some really good shit). I've recently tried to stop watching "TV" so much.

>>128099644
Graduated from college doing the early 90s. Remember all the freedom we had growing up? Not a care in the world as we biked, ran around. Sure we warned not to talk to strangers... The summers we'd be out all day, popping in for lunch and then right back out, not coming home till mom literally yelled out for us! At the height of the video game era, we were allowed to hit the boards (the boardwalk) by ourselves and were each given a few dollars. That was enough for a few video games and a slice of pizza and small Coke or 5 soft pretzels and a Coke. Those were the days!

Whenever you watched your Dad's VHS porno, you knew where he left off. Which scene finished it for him.

Maybe things are better now.

Millennials ARE the snowflake generation.
But their parents, the Boomers, created that cancer.

Millennials would do better if they stopped trying to be so unique and special and started to understand that purple hair and problem glasses is something they share with the other 3 billion members of their generation.

Which by the way, totally makes them unique and special.
Literally.

getting chicks to send you nudes from their grainy ass webcams. i remember i bought a webcam from money i earned from my weekend job and the first thing my dad said when he saw it was "better not take any pictures of your weiner with that".

finding esoteric music was hard too. we had a local "weirdo" record shop called uncle sams that had all kinds of punk, metal, goth etc. shit but you had to either have someone tell you what was what or youd just have to buy the record and chance that it didnt suck. i started getting into ska and wanted a goldfinger record so i skated to the bus stop, took the bus to the mall, went to fye and bought the newest album (stomping ground) and hastily unwrapped it outside the store and put it in my skip proof walkman...and no ska. i was fucking PISSED.

or you could try finding shit on napster and setting up a bunch of downloads before you went to bed and hope they all finished by morning, only to find out a bunch of them were some faggots garage band they renamed as something else so youd download it and find their music.

come to think of it i didnt really use the internet for fapping at all back then. tube sites were unheard of at the time. i remember fapping to entertainment weekly and shit like that. or fantasizing about chicks from school or pictures they put on live journal. i also remember a few years later getting wifi and it was a fuck huge external thing that hooked into your usb and had an antenna on it, and lagged like fuck on counter strike.

What you said. I'm 38, so I was in highschool in the 90s. Graduated inn98. Friend's spent ALL weekend together. Lots of sleepovers and staying up late at night burning candles ad sticking fingers in wax talking about the boys we were crushing on after they'd left. The word was "with" back then. A friend would ask, "were tough with Jason tonight?" Then you'd squeal and say yes and how great making out with Jason was

>In the late 90s, as soon as I finished my homework every night, I watched sitcoms with my parents until bedtime. As an adult, I realize how pathetic they were, wasting their lives on SHITTY shows.

I watched re-runs late at night during the 80s.
Oddly enough, I don't think they sucked that bad, even now.

Night Court, M*A*S*H, 'Allo 'Allo, Twilight Zone.
Most things on after 10pm then are still watchable now.

Of course, that was when MTV still showed Music Videos (Shocking!!) and niggers were viewed as the fucking animals they are instead of role models.

NO ONE in the 80s watched Magnum P.I. and called Roger E. Mosely an Uncle Tom because he didn't use his helicopter to rob East Baltimore.

Sure, most niggers still acted like niggers in the 80s, but they weren't sanctified for it.

In the 80s, niggers were treated like everyone else--that is, standards applied to them, too.
Niggers only became saints who could do no wrong in the 2000s.

The dissonance must hurt.
Being raised to believe you wuz kangs, and then being judged in the real world where you fall short every fucking time.

Boomers stuck it in and broke it off in the Millennials.
They did the same thing to niggers, except without lube.

No boomers didn't. They just trained their kids to deal with the issues of their generation as we will train kids to deal with the issues of ours. Environmentalism and racial prejudicism was a huge issue in their times particularly in the states so we got pumped with ideology relating with that.

The problem is that you and many other millennials grew up in a bubble and discovered you can't compete in a merit based system we've worked hard to produce in the western world. Instead of taking a good look at yourselves you instead blame externalities. Instead of trying to meet middle ground with leftist lunatics you're going to instead rewind the clock on generations of built experience. USA is fucking gone that's for sure. At least the rest of the world can look on and learn from what happens when an anti-intellectual movement like the GOP reaches its natural end point

lol kek that is funny as fuck. I think what bothered me the most was i never knew what Trans was until i was in my early 20's.

That's only because coming out of WW2 the USA was the only concentration of industry that survived the war. America produced to the consumers of the whole world. 80's was actually the tail end of it because by this point Europe and Japan were now catching up and American workers had to compete with European and Japanese. Then the 90's came and the Chinese realised they were wrong about communism and started shifting towards a market economy. The US rise and fall never had anything to do with Democrats or Republicans it's just you guys benefited from WW1 and WW2 destroying Europe and the flight of capital and skilled workers came to you.

Social Media has created narcissism for everyone to be selfish and narcissistic.

The White Alien everyone hates and Facebook on the other hand are really addictive and bad overall and has caused everyone to be distracted and unhappy.

>>128108827
This is real. The 80s and 90s are when divorces started, and I'm just realizing that this is probably why society is degenerate. A generation of kids who grew up without parents who respected their marital vows. Once those are meaningless, everything else topples.

you could say whatever the fuck you wanted.
if there WAS anything you could say that would piss some people off, it was to disparage religion. that pissed off some of the old people back then. but generally it was considered "cool" to do, so you would get away with it without problems.

you had to rely on your own instincts. there was no internet. you couldn't just "google" stuff for an answer. you had to have your own inborn, innate intuition to survive.

people of different races got along worse "in theory", but much better in practice. what i mean by this is that it was ok back then to say "i don't really like black people". and it was ok for black people to say "i don't really like white people" too. but there was overall much less friction between the races, and when people of different races got together, there was generally no issue.

if you were a child, you had all the freedom you could imagine. you could get on your bike and ride all over town. you would find other people you knew on their bikes just riding around and meet up and make groups.

SNL was genuinely "rebellious" and "subversive" and "politically incorrect". Norm Macdonald was the host of weekend update during the late 90s, and he would routinely call hillary clinton a bitch (the first bitch, one time, specifically), michael jackson a pedophile, and OJ simpson a murderer (cost him his job)

the country was far more "white".

televisions were tiny, bulbous and had scanlines on them

ALL of the music playing on the radio was literally awesome, but old people still disliked it in favor of "the classics". however, the generation now is pretty much genuinely suffering from a manufactured music crisis.

watching a movie was a big deal. you didn't have access to 100s of them at the tips of your fingers like you did not. there were like 40 - 50 movies that were in heavy rotation on channels like TNT and USA and maybe AMC. those were the movies EVERYONE knew.

What's the issue with Iranian immigrants ? I'm iranian myself. Most of the people leaving Iran were middle class an educated. Not many snackbars among them.

continuing

the internet, when it became popular, was totally uncensored. you never worried about the government spying on you. people said whatever they wanted. everything that would probably be on "darkweb" today was out in the open, for better or worse.

you would have to go through a lengthy process to sign on. you'd have an "external modem" that would make all sorts of weird noises when you did it. if someone called you while you were on the internet, you'd get booted off, lol

chat rooms were really, really, really popular in the early days of the internet, when it was becoming popularized

there was a guy named artbell who was basically a nighttime radio host who was as big as rush limbaugh (who was the #1 radio host in the 90s). he would have all sorts of crazy guests on in the middle of the night discussing paranormal topics (satanism, possessions, people remote viewing satan, aliens, conspiracies, ghosts, ect ect). here he is being interviewed by larry king - >
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JmPeZa-QEo

radio was much bigger back then

people were instinctively distrustful of government (this changed within the space of 24 hours on 9/11/2001. our country did a complete turn around and skepticism toward larger powers suddenly became something looked down upon, rather than just "the norm")

x-files was huge

freddy kruger was huge

jason vorhees was huge

all homework assignments had to be done on typewriters

if you broke down somewhere, or got yourself into trouble and nobody was around, you did not have a cell phone to call for help. you were always on your own.

there was more of a community atmosphere. i remember the people on my street that i grew up on all having known eachother. all visiting one anothers house. i remember "block parties". i remember that friendliness. i would never ever expect to see anything like that now.

if you wanted to meet someone, you had to approach them and legit just speak to them.

>What's the issue with Iranian immigrants
They are shitskins.

Kek no bantz aside, we don't got so many, but they were one of us, like any norseman here. Integrated, so were the turks, same with them. Rather than living in the shithole called Oslo and hanging with criminal pakis, we wared with later and tbqh for the most part they are integrated too, but everyone hates pakis lol.

Nah funny at one time they tried to group up when I was a kid 2-300 with adults came to my elementary school to get one kid because he had beaten up 3 pakis in our ski slope where they were not allowed (not because they were pakis, but because they lived this place, and we hated that place vice versa). Anyways unlike in Germany today, we sat them in their place. Grown ups that was home, retired people all came running and we beat the shit out of them, with us was the couple of iranians that went to school with us.

Nah really no problems with iranians here, it was with a lot of pakis as said. The yugos had their problems some of them, but for the most part they too were one of us. Then the floods came, now it's a nigger invasion in Oslo. The shitskins seem to go away, they are smart enough to understand they won't get to stay.

Also, you fucking womyn makes some god damn good cakes. Like fresh all sorts as cakes but totally fresh. Love it, best in the world. One of my best childhood friends is an iranian

>im just saying its kind of stupid to be mad at someone for liking anime or being gay
>those types by the end of the day are preferences and as long as they do not harm anyone it shouldent matter
>don’t harm anyone

But they do.
Faggots, by definition, can’t have children of their own.
Fuck a guy in the ass every day for thousands of days and all you get is a sloppy turd.
So how do faggots “reproduce”?
By convincing other men to become faggots.
But men are difficult to convert. Years of equating boobies+friction with orgasm leaves most men set in their ways.
Plus, men are hardwired to desire women. Think about it. Remember the year your crotch invented the boner? Did you really WANT that boner then and there, or did it just happen?
Have you ever gotten hard for a chick you hated up until that moment? Sure you have, and likely dozens of times since then.
Faggots figured out how to create more faggots by remembering when they first became a faggot.
When they were a child. When Pope Kike III first buggared them. When their shady uncle taught them how to “feel good”. The first time they said “free candy is awesome!”

Most kids will run away from Child Molesters. There’s just something WRONG about them.
But, the kids who don’t run…


>now all this weird stuff in my generation like Gender queer, CIS, CIS Binary. If anything i blame Feminism and SJW's for fucking it all up really enabling people to confuse their sexual identity and to be a fatass destroying their body is completely fucked up as well.

My main server was local but the back up I selected wasnt. I had to pay that shit back within a week or my dad would of canceled the phone line. Also had to pay my rent $300 first. I was 15.

here being a homo or tranny is still not socially acceptable, and they get excluded even from family in cases. They stick together and always do shitloads of drugs, always getting ripped off.

A most common swear is "jævla homo" (damn homo), and stuff can be homo. Like what a fucking homo car AHHAHAHAHAHA. :)
We have 10 trannies, I went to school with one she was always fucked up and is supposed to be a he now, parents and whole senpai was utter fucked druggies and homos. I sold her uncle a .22 and he shot him self. I regret nothing. He was a homo that rented at a relative. So sorry for that he had to clean that shit up, he deserved to die, disgusting degenerate.

Rose tinted glasses disclaimer since I was born in 89 I only tasted the 90s when I was a child but man there was no better time to be a kid. I lived in the country and my parents had a satellite dish for tv (I'm talking about 12 feet wide and you had to manually crank the sucker to position it). It was great since I could get my little brother to tell me when the Disney Channel was coming in clearly (back in the day it was mostly great cartoons, Duck Tales, Tale Spin, Goof Troop and the older Disney movies on repeat) but it sucked since the sports were on a different satellite and my dad would always have me change the position until the games came in. First computer was an ms-DOS with windows 95 boot option a great way for a kid to learn how a computer worked if you wanted to use it for the games it had. Legos were sold cheap, the older girls were pretty nice to me and my little brothers and back then they seemed like they wanted to have kids too some day. I fucking hated Clinton and it turned out I had plenty of reason to. But there were good times outside and inside and people were genuinely nicer.

To me the late 70s to about 86 was the best time as far as music and growing up in southern CA. I used to watch tv shows and recognize the locations. When I was 5 my babysitter took us down the street to watch Charlie's Angels be filmed. I was bummed Farrah wasn't there, just the brunette and the skinny one.
In 8th grade I took an afterschool gun class and we shot pellet guns into paper targets in prone position. Public school, SoCal 1984 gun class Yes for real
I thought the 90s sucked monkey balls as far as music goes. All I listened to was Beastie Boys Led Zep & Reggae while I lived in Santa Barbara.
The babyboomer were fucking insufferable. My parents were stone cold boomers. My mom ACTUALLY chased the Rolling Stones down the alley behind Santa Monica Civic in 1964 on Stones 1st tour. Mom was 14. She got crushed up against the limo and Keith was sitting right in front of her.
I hated the Beatles before the 80s began. I hated hippies. 80s (to me) were anti 60s anti hippie
I like Soundgarden alot at the time & still think they're 100x better than Nirvana. Sux about Cornell but that's what happens when you sell your soul to the cult...
anyway yeah 80s rule

*shock, surprise, gasp and swoon*

Do you think that Chinks now prefer to hire niggers or other chinks?

If you invented a law saying that chinks have to prefer niggers over other chinks that it would really change anything?

Do you truly believe that niggers in Africa consider Europeans and chinks to be the same as a nigger that lived in the hut next to them their entire childhood?

Of course not.
But, according to cunts like you, only people of European descent can be raciss.

The only thing that made me racist was being around niggers.
My entire childhood, I was taught that "We're all the saaaaaaame!!"
And then, I came into contact with niggers.
Even afterward, I assumed that I only met the violent, stupid ones.
It took decades of contact with niggers for me to understand that they aren't like me and never will be.

Cry all you want, people like being around others like themselves, and detest being forced into contact with people different.

I remember the wall going down and visiting my great aunt in east germany for the first time. People were optimistic and were convinced the finally lasting peace was within our grasp. It all changed when the muslims started to go apeshit.

Also when one later could afford it (not every year like later), one could go to southern europe in the summer. Other than annoying ongoing degos, it was golden. Sun happy people. Now you can't go these places at all. People drank and fought ofc. Always bongs, swedes and mountain niggers causing shit. Fighting one day, best friends the day after, we're weird.

Aaaahhhhhh that was liberating, if you wanted to get a hold of me, you had to know were I was hanging out or catch me while home(which was rather hard). Fuck cellphones, I don't use them actually and I used to develop some frontend apps aside other projects. Fucking hate phones. Beepers was never a thing here. That was freedom. Not to mention when you hanged with people, half of them were not constantly absent in mind on that god damn smart phone

My nieghborhood was the best. We rode bikes all day. Had three tree houses. Woods to do fun shit it. Close squad of 12, about 30 kids total in the hood. Trading Pokemon, starting fires, playing man hunt, kill the man with the ball, non stop sports. Railroad tracks near by....fuck with train.

going to the record store was a big deal. it cost like 20 bucks to buy an album (which was even more money back then) and it sucked because a lot of the time you'd only get one good song and a bunch of crap. you only had the albums that you had bought and paid a fortune for to listen to, so going to the record store became a sacred experience

when you talked to someone else about what kind of music you were into, it was a lot bigger of a deal then than it is now, because you had likely sunk considerable amounts of money into your record collection (as opposed to now, where you just pirate songs off youtube or at worst pay 99 cents for your favorite singles on itunes). today when people get really into discussions about music and stuff they're usually kind of weirdos IMO, but back then you were discussing a hobby you practically went bankrupt over.

having much less selection for the media you could consume made it much more special. every VHS you owned. every album. every cassette. every single. every 8 bit video game cartridge. all of it was sacred. all of it was amazing and you'd be so happy to have it. there was no such thing as being desensitized to music or film or media. it was all amazing.

seeing a vagina was 10 times more amazing than it is now because porn was not readily available. i found an old VHS in the woods of some woman being banged as a teenager and it was the most amazing thing ever. you basically had to be over 18 in order to get your hands on any sort of porno (there was no internet) and even then it was usually a magazine full of airbrushed still images (playboy)

girls didn't play video games and they didn't like starwars, star trek, or anything related to "nerd" culture.

girls liked strong, square jawed alpha males, who were blonde and aryan and were the star players on the football team. it was better than now where you see more women with betamales.

>>128113828
kek, we never have a grudge once over.

Funny thing, here we have an expression, if there is a lot of fighting esp mass fighting, we say it's "skikkelig Texas", ref to cowboy tymus.

How can I even translate that, it means "really Texas" but it has sort of a dif meaning lol. Total texas would be more fitting I guess, nah bongs got a bit of a fight in them, memes aside. They are also very good and accepting of cultural differences, like that example up there, I doubt they do this in the UK lol. Punch in the face, and it's over, we're friends the next day

people used to frequently say "money isn't everything" and "money can't buy happiness". i don't generally hear those sayings very often anymore, at least not the way i did back then.

people had less access to information, but knew more. if something broke, they knew how to fix it. if they didn't have money for something, they knew how to make it, grow it, build it or hunt it

religion was everything. i sort of alluded to this earlier but it can't be understated. "science" and "academia" is our religion in our society today. back then, "the bible" and christian teachings were essentially held in the same regard.

there were only a few TV stations that ran news, and if you wanted to know what was going on in the world, that was your only option. MSM could lie their ass off to you, and you had no way to hld them accountable. still, people were intensely skeptical of anyone on television and anyone involved in politics, even moreso than today with all of the bad press about CNN. this too seemed to change after 9/11.

fighting was sort of normal. people expected others, especially young people, to get into fights, get bloody noses, even get broken bones.

"bullying" was not something for which you would find much sympathy.

you can see this reflected in the culture too. if you watch any movie or television show from the 80s or 90s, you'll "tv people" depicted as morons, especially if they're news people. i never saw a "positive" depiction of newspeople until more recently. now when they make a movie, half of the time they put legit "MSNBC" anchors on, or anderson cooper. also consider the success of movies like they live, or videodrome or countless others from the time.

all of this is reflective of the cultural attitudes of the time. the attitude of skepticism that pervaded the plebs and masses. that was a good thing, i think.

again, all of this changed on the day of 9/11/2001

The shock waves that went back wards and forward into time permanently fucking this reality hadn't occurred yet, until 9/11 so it was bretty gud.

From reading one thing I never thought of before. In the 80s and to a lesser extent the 90s it seems there was less suppression of our true nature. As males you could be a little violent and it was okay. In school it was changing but they looked the other way a lot. Now males are treated like defective little girls. As a father of three boys a dealing with the school for things that wouldn't of even been an issue in the 80s or 90s when I was their age it's more than nostalgia.

You'd turn on the TV and hopefully there'd be good cartoons, not bad cartoons. The good cartoons were Japanese anime like Voltron or Robotech, or American stuff like GI Joe and Ducktales. Bad cartoons were whatever trash HannaBarbera reruns from the 70's you got stuck with.

Boredom was different back then; zero instant gratification and options were limited, and there was no internet so you just had to figure shit out... or if not suck it up. Getting sick was awful - it was a break from school but there was nothing to do. Literally "Lets watch Mr Rodgers and the Price is Right". You'd be stuck with the same 5 mediocre video games if you could afford them, and you probably bought the shitty ones because we were too stupid to know better (aka buy Japanese). Even the good ones got stale.

Politics weren't as big a deal, and big universal maymays from [The current year] brokers hadn't driven people fucking bonkers. People still believed in religion and basic old nationalist truisms, so they generally agreed on basic things. Leftists hadn't gone full commie, and the right still believed they were genuine, albeit misguided. Everyone was white, it was wonderful.

How old? Where in Canada? I am 40, from VanIsle, and I have certainly noticed the political climate getting crazier. There were alway political groups, though. Anarchists, punks, skinheads, sharp skinheads, communists. Didn't feel as nuts as nowadays, but I was younger and obviously not as aware. I think the biggest difference, and again, this might be age, but the biggest difference was back then people were more positive about the future of the country, the planet, civilization in general. Could just be getting old.

No cable TV where I was. Over-the-air TV. You had the 3 major networks and like 2-3 local UHF stations. Some days I could get CBC from Canada.

I could ride my bike on the road on my own at age 14 and people wouldn't panic about an unattended child.

I went to a very small Christian school that sort of bordered white & minority areas. Race relations were actually way, way, better IMO, at least at my school. It was small enough that we got to know each other and by senior year just about everybody got along w/ each other.

I genuinely feel sorry for you youngin's now a days. You are growing up in such a shit environment. Everything monitored, regulated...

But anyway, I miss things like hanging posters in your room and waiting for the monthly teen newspaper that i liked. I miss playing outside and improvising things like using leafs for money etc. I think imagination was more developed then. Going to the cinema was an amazing experience. Sharing video taped Disney movies with friends was fun. Gathering in friends houses cause they got a new console or game and taking turns. We also used to have places that would rent out games and consoles cuz poorfags everywhere. We'd also organize festivals, costume parties, even made our own "movies" with my dad's camcorder.

I'm not the type of person to condemn technology cause if we had it then, we would have used it just as much. But it just seems to me like we had way more fun, compared to when I see my nephew and his friends playing on their phones and that's considered an activity.

I dunno.

I'm oldfag.

It was way better due to stronger social connection, without smartphone/cell phone staring and chit-chat bullshit.

It was also relatively innocuous time, except Waco incident and OKC bombing according to my recollection.

It really went to shit by 2000 when the effects of NAFTA/WTO/China free trade crept in to be felt just prior to 9/11.

America really went to shit when America (via Supreme Court) chose GW Bush.

DESU, I'd rather relive mid-80's to mid-90's, because life was fun and simpler back then, without cynicism that's pervasive now.

And hang out at the arcades to prove high scores and beat the players with Street Fight II and Mortal Kombat.

The last great "most fun" arcade was Sega's Top Skater in 1997.

Before blacks invented AIDS it was possible to go on literal pussy binges every weekend.

Think of someone you know who believes in stupid shit like white privilege and the wage gap. Now imagine that they don't have a device which they can turn to every other second which reinforces and validates their beliefs, that they can no longer connect with every other idiot who believes the same stupid shit. Imagine that, if they told a white man to his face that he got to where he was due to his white privilege, they would get laughed at and shunned by almost everyone. Imagine that they never fucking open their mouth to spew this stupid bullshit because most people would call them out on it. Basically, reeeing libtards were a tiny tiny minority and, even more important, they had no voice because they had no platform because platforms with meaningful reach actually took effort and aptitude to access. Social media and internet accessibility has changed that. Now, the lowest common denominator often has the loudest voice.

Home videos from the 90's is the GREATEST genre of porn on the internet, 9 times out of 10 there is good music playing in the background too.
