The only thing Eric the Obtuse remembers about the sixties and seventies is that he had a good time but he is lacking the details due to all of the recreational pharmaceuticals. I rather liked the eighties and the nineties weren't too bad but you got the twenty-first century right.
Galen, geeze I suppose you're not a Jonser then. Fuck , man. I'm a 1962 cohort who enjoyed the fuck out of recreational pharmaceuticals. So here's Rag's attitudes wrt decades.
1960's : Awesome, grade school Rags wore clover jewelry, like his peers.
1970's : Do Drugs. That was the message and yeah, it was really fun.
1980's : Do Career. : Do shit to make lots of $$$$$. Job/poker/ride the stock market escalator to the top:
Yeah, I don't give a fuck the "Jefferson's were of "color", hell, I was movin' to the top in the 1980's/1990's.
"nuf said, man.
*Rags is of assorted races, so, fuck man. I guess I'm "of color" as well.
2000's: Fucking outsourcing fad started. You know, Galen, I'd love to fuck over the CEOL's and outsourcers. Taxes, burn at the stake, shoot with gun, etc. I hate CEO's and outsourcers with a pasion.
2010's. Fucking sucking green donkey dicks decade of shit/corporate Lords/CEO's need some lead.
I'm not a shrink but you seem to have this thing about wanting to be a Boomer. You either knowingly or unknowingly add about 5 years to your real age. 1960s? Grade school? OK, you went into Kindergarten fall of '67 (unless a very late in 1962 birth in which case it might have been fall of '68). You went into 1st grade in fall of '68. So, you had 2-1/2 school years "in the 1960s."
I am not really surprised by this. Unlike most of Generation X he gets to participate in the tail end of the fun part but then gets to spend the rest of his life in the shitty parts the Boomers left behind.
