What time period would yall most wanna grow up in, and LEAST want to?
For me it would the 90s, I mean I know I grew up, but when I say grow up I mean from age 10-20.
But yeah I would hate to be born anytime before 1980. Would espicially hate growing up like in the 50s or something, it just seems like everyone was so ignorant, gullable, and judgemental back then.
From what Ive like, been told about it, it seems like a time when you were considered smart if you wore a suit and was a good talker/used big words. And I STILL cannot believe that only 60 years ago America was full of dumbass, ignorant people who were actually stupid enough to believe you could treat someone different cause of the color of they skin...and THEY actually did it. For real thats one of the stupidest things Ive ever heard of. I know I may not be right on the other stuff, but god damn thats just stupid as hell...

Personally id have loved to spend my 10-20 in the 1960s. The cars, the clubs, the music...its all appealing to me... |

I would've liked to up in the late 80's/ early 90s. i was born in 1990, so I'm more of a 00's kid then a 90's kid, I think. Maybe I'm a lil in the middle.

I would've loved to have been back in any ancient time...and by ancient time, I mean before everything went A.D. meaning, B.C.
Though, there are a few A.D. times I would've liked....like Feudal Japan, and any area of time where Native Americans roamed to US as them being the only humans in the US, meaning before European settlement.

I would give anything to have been in my late teens/early 20s between around 1957 and the mid-70s. I'm a retro-nut and am totally fascinated by the era.

Well, a certain former dictator would have loved me for my looks, so I would have been getting laid alot, but not sure what German women looked like then, so I'll pass on that.
I love the 80s, so I really wouldn't want to change, other than maybe be born in the 1990s to enjoy the technology boom.

I turned 10 years old in Septemeber of 1995 and I can say that I am perfectly 100% happy with growing up in the 90's. I loved the 90's and wouldnt trade that time for anything. Everything was just awesome for me.
Plus, If I would have been older in '95 I would have thought the Dungeon of Doom was stupid. That's a thought that I can NOT accept!!

I wanna be a teen in the 50's, when rock and roll took off. They don't write 'em as well as they did back then.

I know I may not be right on the other stuff
Actually the Grunge Age was pretty good in the early 90's. But I can't help believing (according to what I've heard), that Grunge was just a poor revival of the hippy days of the late 60's, early 70's. So I think I would choose the REAL thing and put myself at the age of, say, 17, at the big party known as Woodstock. Back when there was VARIETY IN MUSIC. Back when there was like, Acid Rock, Folk Music, Surf Music, Beatles Pop, and Motown - all at the same time on the same radio. Wow, what a great time to be a teenager. You could hitch-hike everywhere, jump freight trains, and meet up with other long-haired, unbathed "earthy" people - and live out of a backpack on the side of the road . . . and sing Kumbaya with a boy who called himself "Blue". hahaha
Then Zepplin came along, and Floyd, and the great metal bands of the early 70's. By then Blue and I woulda been like 20-years-old and living out of an abandoned car . . . both of us jobless, desparate, and hungry . . . our bare-feet hangin out the window, and smokin' our sh*t. HAHAHA
(Of course later I would grow into the kind of parent who doesn't allow my own children to do any of this stuff - "Hello out there, Mom and Dad!" *waves - and Blue finally changes his name back to Bill)  . |

mid 60s to mid 70s... Music and world changing forever! Same thing here. Plus the economical situation was much better ( in Europe, at least ). I mean, my mother started to work in the 70s, and she told me SHE had the choice between three companies to work for. Now... well it' s more like the companies have the choice between like 30 employees... |

Most: Back in the time of swords and knights and such. I'd be a charming rogue who scores with all the ladies.
Least: Any time in the early 1900's before 1960.

I'd like to have been born in 1950. I would have been 19 for Woodstock, and you bet your ass I woulda been there. Then I'd be in the prime of my life for all the partying in the 70s. And now, I would be a bitter middle-aged man that can't figure out these newfangled DVD things.
