[quote=Anonymous]I think the 1970s up to early 1980s when aids came out was best time. Fin slowly died off in 1980s with Herpes, AIDS then raising drinking age from 18.

1990s was ok but slowly political correctness, Diversity, cell phones, email chipped away at life.

9/11 ended the fun for good.

Heck my whole family is in Life 360 and every move tracked vis my iPhone and work tracks me on my work PC. Purchases are all done electronic and tracked.

By comparison my freshman year college I did not even have a phone in room, internet or credit card and drinking age 18. I got dropped off and told Mom see you at Thanksgiving. The shit I got into.

The 90s was fun as we all had money. But pre cell phones we met up more. Think 1990s tv shows they all hang out together. No texting, zooming. Pretty much you show up at movie, bar they met you or they did not. Every night was fun.

Classic 1991 I was in a club NYC and I see Evander Holyfield by himself. Looking pissed. I say hi. He goes damn Sugar Ray Leonard stood me up. He goes mind if we hang out a bit till he shows up. I go ok. He drinks no alcohol so has a club soda I had a beer. Sugar Ray shows up. So I get introduced he goes thank and in his way. So I get a tap on my shoulder and I get a free drink and they say here is your drink John. Turns out thought i was as John Elway the famous QB. I drank free rest of night.

Stuff like that no longer happens. I had a similar thing two years later with Tara Banks and me as she was not on guest list!  We both got in. But she could not call inside to friends.

So much fun. I think 9-11-2001 was a hard stop on fun. It started at Woodstock and ended in 2001. Good 32 years of fun! [/quote]
