We've always had wars, terrorism, recessions, shit summers, Albion mediocrity (though three promotions is pretty good, I'd say), Labour governments and so on... THEY ARE NOT NEW PHENOMENONS. Is history something that happens to everyone else, and passes you by completely?

So why infest the board with a huge dose of misery like you're the only one that negative things are happening to, when misery is something that is all around us and the rest of us just pick ourselves up and get on with, rather than forvever playing the 'victim' card.

Please tell me you didn't start this thread just to have another grizzle.

I honestly thinkthe naughties has been an utter TURD of a decade. 9/11, Stock Market and Markets being SHITE for the whole decade, Credit Crunch, Worst recession since 1945, Albion being football spectators for most of the decade, divorce, shite summers, wars, ongoing terrorism, Labour in charge the whole time. Yes complete SHIT HOUSE.i

Oh gawd, here goes " Johnny Nice Painter" Spielberg again ! Black ! Black! everything black !!!

Icy is right, as all the other decades since have relied on the building blocks set by those of us that were there.

The plural should be phenomena - I would of thought that the brightest kid in my class at downs jnr school would know that.

90's. 60's was quality but still easier to pull nowadays. Still had tight birds about then

Women were generally a lot more feminine and less in your face in the 60's though, give me a 60's bird over a naughties one anyday

You had to wrestle with tights, bras with metal in and a lot more clothing in the 60's. Women have bigger tits nowadays though.

Bras had been chucked away by the late 60's though :thumbsup:

90's justs shades the 80's for me. Got married and both kids born in the 90's.
Have to agree with US that this decade has been pretty crap on a world level, although, for me things are fine on a personal level.

I think a previous poster said quite rightly that things always look better looking back so who know's how we will decade in a few years time.

For me all have had their good and bad points.
Good points being:
1960's - born at the end so don't remember it
1970's - youngster, playing out with my mates, all the time
1980's - teenage years and all that brings, university at the end
1990's - postgraduate years @ uni and working around the world
2000's - more stability, learning to appreciate life, family and friends, doing many things I've always wanted to do!

really a case of making the best of the short time you have on this planet and not looking back.

Second half of the 70s. Obviously. The Golden Age Of Punk.

Oh, and an unexpected second wind in the mid-Nineties with Britpop and Dance.

Great times.

Has to be the 60s - music, football, fashion, politics ... everything was more exciting then.

I was only 13 when the 60s ended so I was too young to appreciate them to the full but what a great decade it was.

The one you are living in now. Obviously. Otherwise you would be dead, or not born. But I have always had a hankering after living in the 1390s, personally.

Huh? I'm living in the naughties now, I was alive in the 90s and the 80s, and the very very late end of the 70s.
