No phones, just a bunch of people living in the moment

Where are the fat people?

Edit: Where are the tattoos? Are those people just not badass?

Starving artists in the 70s referred to tattoo artists, obviously.

Not one brawl or gun shot. No one running out with merchandise they didn't pay for. Fond memories of this.

Mom: looks like these pants fit good but let me see how they fit (tugging at the waist and pulling at the butt & crotch areas)

Me: Mom get your hands off my junk!

Keeping therapists in business since the late 70s

Oh look, another argguaghhh 70s and 80s 90s was best ever :lol: I get it. You were a kid then. You had no responsibilities. Today you do have responsibilities. This has been said forever. Those cars are pretty damn ugly though and 9 mpg.

At any point on the OT, you can find 10 threads on pg 1 about how 80s and 90s was best.

Those in that age range destroyed affordable housing for America today

The cars creaking from doors opening & closing; to driving off rattles are thankfully largely left in the past.

1977 was the very early years of the foreign car invasion because of factors, including these.

"those are on sale, so you like those" (with slight stern nod and stare). Love it.

Back when people dressed up some to go out, just even the mall. That would be a positive that can come back. Like on planes.

Twenty seconds in it's great because mom is riding with the windows down. I love weather that allows me to do that.

When things were appreciated and stuff we do everyday now were treats back then.

If there were an OT back then, that video would've spun off a storm thread.

With today’s chaos & craziness, that makes me yearn for 1977.

No trans anything
No school shootings
Republicans were republicans , Dems were Dems
Divorce rate was low
Commercials didn’t have men kissing
The harshest vulgarity on TV was “Damn”
Music was AWESOME!
Girls didn’t dress like sluts and have any VD

I CAN KEEP GOING
