re: What is the greatest decade in history to have been a teenager in?

For me it was the 80’s. Like someone mentioned, before cell phones and social media. My parents say the 50’s

Mid 70's to mid 80's. No contest.

The 90s was basically the 80s + dialup internet porn + a/s/l/pic?

Therefore, 90s was the goat.

Late 80’s-early 90’s. No internet, no cell phones, no social media, only 30 channels on tv.

Best thing was no political correctness. You could get away with murder figuratively. Everybody had a sense of humor or were thick skinned. Nobody got offended by much. If you got bullied, you took it outside to fight.

Drugs, alcohol, teenage pregnancy, std’s were issues. Kentucky led the country in teenage pregnancy. Their kids are now in college or graduating high school. One girl I know is 41 years old and all three of her kids are already out of high school. All different dads to.

The girls were awesome. They could get down and party as hard as you could. They were of the hit it and quit it era to. Now they’re single moms.

Is this like a dual BBQ or something?

You have so much beef that you need two BBQ pits to grill it all?

Late 80s early 90s were a blast.

I spent my entire childhood in the 80s and teens and early 20s in the 90s. It was a perfectly fine time to grow up although I think being born in about 1968 would have been ideal for me.

I'm thankful that I grew up social media, cell phone/internet free.

The 80s were some kinda cool- but I'm a little biased.

I think we can all agree that it certainly isn't this one.
