| It seems that whatever decade people grew up in they wish they could go back to it (unless there obsessed with a certain time period like the roman empire or something) . People say things like " I miss the 60s I hate how music sounds now" " man things were much simpler in the 1990s I wish I could go back" " Kids these days, they never acted like this when I was a kid" " "It was a lot easier to get a job when I was a kid" ect. Since the world population is growing every year, does that mean that the more recent decades(2000s-Future) will be missed more than the 20th centuries decades ever were? Will people want to go back to the decade they grew up in more than any other decade in the past or is this really the worst generation this time. I'm not sure but I think this is a New thing( last 150 years) , I don't recall people in history missing the decade they grew up in, they seemed more interested in making there mark in the present , not reverting back to how it was. They wanted change. |

| Every generation is worse than the last one |

| Anytime between '70s-'99. |

| I have to assume this will be true, everything is like triple the price it use to be now then it was it your parents generation assuming your any wheres from 15-25. Like used cars and apartments/houses. My parents use to talk about all the time when they were 16 they'd buy cars for like 500bucks and drove that perfectly fine for years, now a 500$ car isn't worth anything but the scrap metal cause if it even starts thats probably all it can do lol. |
| unemployment, wealth inequality, natural disasters (like climate change or global warming), pollution, inflation (prices going up), overpopulation will only get worse unless every government (and the people so vote wisely) in the world do something about it |
| 90's were nice. It'd also be nice to not have to go into debt in order to attend a university. |
| I couldn't live without my rights and the benefits of technology, despite the fact I'd like time to go back a bit. And space exploration is too appealing. I'll let the past be the past, for better or worse |

| Chances are in simpler times (centuries ago) most of us wouldn't have the leisure to complain because we'd be busy sustaining our existence. Our life expectancy will probably be much shorter too. I am fortunate and proud of the achievements we have made in medicine and technology. While it seems cool to imagine how life would have been back then, the fact of the matter is that life for the average person wasn't as glorified as it seems. |
| The current generations has no discipline. They get away with everything because our laws are punishing the way parents parent their children. I don't wish to go back to the 90s. I like the 21st century. I just wish our laws on morality didn't change so much since my time. |
| Schools out, No job at moment, STILL hello MAL Eh..I will try to be online |
| The people who talk like that are usually the same people who are blind to how much they themselves have changes, and just pin it on everything around them changing instead. Or they are just nostalgic. |
☕ Truth be told, I'm quite proud of my house blend. To attain my flavor and fragrance, I use five different types of coffee beans. ☕ |
| No thnx I like my PS4. |
| I shall stay with my gadgets. |

They wanted change. Usually this are romantic bullshit of childhood and young age. When you are a child or even a teenager you see everything as more exciting than what they really are. One thing that they are right though is the one about things being more simple. Or better say more calm. It seems that despite our tech our governments and bankers overlords have managed to make us work even more, have free relaxing time even less, and put a tone of bills and taxes in our head to stress about we didn't use to have. People had time to go easy in the past. Now everyone is out of time and you can't even breath without having some tax over you. If we combine that with sensationalist media that spread fear about terrorist, rapist, rapist pedophiles etc outside of your door and the government putting cameras everywhere and scanning the leaving shit out of you because you decided to take the plane and go visit your folks you start to understand that today things have become so unnatural it cause extreme stress. |
| I wish I could go back to the.....FUTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| ionno sumwer were magic is n fighting n wat not its a romanticist ideal but wuld want 2 b killed by magic or a spear evrytin feels like a game rite now would b easy, normal, hard depending on wer u r n wat ur status(wealth/influence/etc) is. me c lots of ppl die but dats just nother normal day. me rlly prefers it bttr f lik tins advance to where adroids or dolls/adept vr or fighting is round since least me'll have sometin to keep me busy with somtin to play with or surviving. really depends on who it is since the ideals and wants. cant really judge a poor person if youre rich cant really know why a person who knows war wants peace or vice versa like the difference between a XO doctor and a janitor. differences n monetary or momentary values though its not realistic or its just stupid the internet would be the only place where wanting magic is normal. or smth |
| Whats That? You think my username is Pretty?! Me too!!....... until I found out it was the name of a JAV actress whom I dont even know. |
| The 90s...I miss them, but I wouldn't go back to them. Gaming was still fairly niche and almost everything that came out was good. Hip-hop didn't all sound the same. (Yeah, I said it.) Gas didn't cost 4 fucking dollars a gallon for regular. If there were anything I'd go back for, it'd be to experience Slayers again for the first time. |
| Seems like those people need to stop living in the past and focus on the present and future. |
| On the contrary I want to move forward. I expect technological advancements and wants to use them. Stuff like prosthetics body parts, holographic communication, virtual realities, smarter AI, more renewable sources of energy, faster methods of travelling, etc. |
| Dying to the plague was so badass. Why cant we go back to the old days? :( |

| Nostalgia is a sweet trap and I often fall victim to it, especially when things aren't going too well for me. I do treasure my memories though and I know I'll fondly recall them all my life but not at the expense of hoping for a better future. |
| Your prediction is probably right. I even catch myself thinking 'I want to go back to 2007' sometimes, even though I'm just in my teens. I'm a bad person. |
| I don't wish I could go back, but the 90's were a lot of fun. I don't know how you can have a better childhood. |
| 90s had war and chaos over here, no thanks. |
 |
| I miss the 90's when lunch was dedicated to beyblade battles. |

| haha lol the irony the post was made in 2014 the best time, obv better than now |
