You gotta love the 80's =p

I gotta love the current decade - we have Xbox 360.

No interwebz before 90's so yeah, screw oldies.

I love the '40s style. Specifically, 1940s New York, San Fran, Chicago, or Boston. That's where all the classy movies were set. Go Bogart!

Wadders:
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

I too love how people dressed on the 40's.

Dapper grey or black suits, high leather boots, peaked caps with cool skull badges on them, perhaps even a monocle and leather gloves. 40's fashion was the bomb.

Unfortunately if you try to dress like that nowadays you get funny looks from people, it seems that only royalty can get away with that fashion now (but usually only for parties), and even then there was a bit of a scandal in the papers.

The 40's because you could wear cool staches and kill whoever the fuck you wanted. It was the greatest time ever.

Judging the past by how it's shown on TV, the 70's wins simply because of Life on Mars.

The 1960s were the pinnacle of America.

I mean, come on. Look at how they dreamed, imagined, created...We went to the fucking moon. We haven't been back in, what, 40 years?

I'd kill to have grown up then.
Then again, perhaps it would just be even sadder to watch everything fall apart like it is now. While right now it's more of a "Well, that sucks, looks like I have to move to New Zealand in the next 15 years"

Zac_Dai:
I've got love for you, if you were born in the 80s...

Well it was acceptable at the time.

You clever bastard.

The roaring 20's.

mentor07825:
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.

For that to have happened, Communism would have had to existed in practice(it didn't).

OT: Each decade has its own, special something, that I like. If I could, I would create a crazy concoction of all decades rolled into one funky mix with good music, charm, self respect, and manners with a health does of free thought thrown in to the mix.

Aha. I see what you did there. Very good, very good indeed...

You've got to admit though, the Nazi Party and the Wehrmacht certainly looked the part, their uniforms and stuff were far classier than ours. Hell, the "presentation" of the Nazi's may well have helped their popularity along. People are suckers for smart military parades and nice big eagle statues and stuff...

I imagine 'back in the day' to be boring as hell.

Seconded man, but that's why I pick the 50's. It mostly retained that brilliant, classy fashion sense while the 50's was also the bloom period of bebop hard bop, my favorite jazz sub-genres. The 50's are like the 40's plus some extra awesome stuff and minus WW2 (but plus the Cold War, at least that didn't cost so many lives though).

Don't forget that those uniforms were designed by no less than Hugo Boss, yes Hitler knew quite who to pick for that job.

Edit: I don't like quoting the wrong guy.
