I have no idea how times ACTUALLY were back a couple decades ago(since I didn't live in them), I have only the movies and perhaps the music to show me. I personally like all the nice, sophisticated clothes people wore in the 30's, 40's, 50's, etc. Honestly, I think the music is pretty good, too. For a long time I have liked the 50's era and music especially from the 40's. The people back then I feel like were more open (as in more friendly?), stuff like that.
Also, feel free to provide a realistic description of the decades you lived in.

Roaring Twenties is not a choice, and there is no "Other" vote.

I threw up in my mouth a little bit.

Anyway, i don't think any specific decade is better then the other, they all have their ups and downs.

The 40s, because people were much better dressed. Hats, suits and dresses, no polyester trousers and T shirts and the like. And because I have some kind of false belief that it was all in black and white in those days :D

But today is awesome, what with all the science and medicine and technology and all that useful stuff that helps us survive and develop as a species :D

I voted for the 90s for three reasons.

1)Tool came together in the 90s.

2)Bloodhound Gang came together in the 90s.

3)I was born in the 90s.

It's the unstoppable trifecta of ultimawesome.

80s, because:

1. I was born in the 80s.

2. Communism failed in Russia, therefore Russia sucks ass.

3. Communism failed entirely.

4. Communism failed.

90s had the best music, and the world sort of stabilized after 50-odd years.

80's for the music, fashion and TV.

1920s for some good old fashioned anarchist/labor movement protesting and bombings.
1960s for the social unrest and an opportunity (provided I keep the knowledge of my current time and get to bring stuff) to set off a bomb at Kent State, or one of the civil rights marches where bastards were spraying people down.

I'd go with this normally, but I'm going to have to say 40's this time. Why? Because we had us a big ol' war going on all over the globe, not to mention the better sense of dress and morality, less liberal thought and jolly good music.

I probably should have been born somewhere between the 60īs and 70īs, at the hay day of progressive rock and long hair on men. I could be playing with Jethro Tull *sigh*.

1990's. Encompassed my teenage years, Thatcher finally fucked off, Techno, the threat of being nuked by the Russkies went away and the IRA stopped blowing shit up, home computing technology got heaps better, everything was looking pretty rosy really.

China is a dictator country, but doesn't follow the Communist economy. I see people there owning businesses and reaping profits.

It's Communism by name, but not by economy which it pretty much was all about.
