would you give up life as you know it to have grown up in the 60's?
    #19189346 - 11/25/13 10:10 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

I sure would. I figure it would put you in your 70's so you could still be alive. Or possibly dead. You would miss out on technology and research chems. Lol. Some are gold. Every time I watch fear and loathing and it gets to this quote I tear up a little and ponder the question..


Strange memories on this nervous night in Las Vegas. Five years later? Six? It seems like a lifetime, or at least a Main Era—the kind of peak that never comes again. San Francisco in the middle sixties was a very special time and place to be a part of. Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run . . . but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant. . . .

History is hard to know, because of all the hired bullshit, but even without being sure of “history” it seems entirely reasonable to think that every now and then the energy of a whole generation comes to a head in a long fine flash, for reasons that nobody really understands at the time —and which never explain, in retrospect, what actually happened.

My central memory of that time seems to hang on one or five or maybe forty nights—or very early mornings—when I left the Fillmore half-crazy and, instead of going home, aimed the big 650 Lightning across the Bay Bridge at a hundred miles an hour wearing L. L. Bean shorts and a Butte sheepherder's jacket . . . booming through the Treasure Island tunnel at the lights of Oakland and Berkeley and Richmond, not quite sure which turn-off to take when I got to the other end (always stalling at the toll-gate, too twisted to find neutral while I fumbled for change) . . . but being absolutely certain that no matter which way I went I would come to a place where people were just as high and wild as I was: No doubt at all about that. . . .

There was madness in any direction, at any hour. If not across the Bay, then up the Golden Gate or down 101 to Los Altos or La Honda. . . . You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning. . . .

And that, I think, was the handle—that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn’t need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting—on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. . . .

So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.

NOPE.

It sounds great but EVERYTHING in the past (at least in my past) always sounds better then it actually was.

I'd much rather be able to communicate with anyone on the world with a few taps on a screen and have access to hundreds of drugs instantaneously then have cheap acid and a shitton of weirdos to do it with. Having a society full of drug users sounds great but in reality those people were likely similar to the types of people we have in society today. I'm sure there were many of the same obnoxious, egotistical, dirty, gluttonous, douchebags you find in society today. The few videos we have of that time appear to be filmed through rose-colored glasses of nostalgia.

Nah man, the world is so much better now than it was then. The only thing was there was a lot going on. But a lot HAD to go on during the time, you know?

Like civil rights. It must have been pretty cool to see that stuff going down, but it was going down because blacks were treated like shit.

Hippies were cool, but they existed because of how straightlaced everyone was.

Anyone ever watch "Midnight in Paris" ? A bit cheesy, but touches on this point well.
Every generation wants to live in the last glory days.
But really, these glory days come every 40-60 years it seems.
Before the '60s it was the roaring '20s. The time of prohibition, woman's rights movement, etc. You know, Gatsby type shit.
sounds fun too.
Then before that, it was the Victorian age in the late 1800's. So much beautiful art and literature. And opium.
Point being, is that the past always seems better when it's glorified like it is. Which it is.
We're living is such an amazing fucking time right now, I'm so glad to be growing up in it.
We're witnessing the rise of the internet. The mass globalization of humanity.
The rise of the technological world and the death of organized religion.
The legalization of marijuana, and the shunt of prejudice beliefs and actions.

Just saying, don't waste time trying to live in the past and miss the present.
I guarantee we're gonna hear our kids and grand kids wishing they grew up when we did as well :lol:

I love your response.
We DO live in an abso-fucking-lutely amazing time to be a drug dabbling progressive member of society.

The only reason people will tell you otherwise is because the norms of the society we used to live in are being ripped apart at the seams. The government is failing, mass religion is failing, the drug war is failing, and the war on terrorism is failing. I hate to brag, but my generation (the kids in college right now) are not idiots. We see the shitshow our grandparents put us in, and when we get control of the wheel you better believe the car is going the opposite direction. We're going back home friends.

These past 5 years (and next 10 or so) are slated to become some of the most beautifully DIFFERENT years from our history.
Pessimists will point to all of the problems and go "but we have to worry about THIS and THIS and..."
but if you think about it there has never been a more connected and self-regulated world than the world of today.

We owe it to the fucking internet man. It's up there with Agriculture and Spoken word.

I never said I would of caught it during that time period, I was more worried about the fact that it wasn't really known about until the 80s.

Thus, I would of probably got aids and would be dead by now.

Bean shorts and a Butte sheepherder's jacket . . . booming through the Treasure Island tunnel at the lights of Oakland and Berkeley and Richmond, not quite sure which turn-off to take when I got to the other end (always stalling at the toll-gate, too twisted to find neutral while I fumbled for change) . . . but being absolutely certain that no matter which way I went I would come to a place where people were just as high and wild as I was: No doubt at all about that. . . .

I can tell u one thing. I was too young in the 60's, but in the 70's you never had to use a condom. Every girl was on the pill, and the syph and the clap were easily curable with an antibiotic shot. No Aids. No Herpes. The only time you saw a condom was when somebody blew it up to make a balloon animal at a party.

i'd say no, OP. my age (if i grew up in the sixties) would allow me to foresee the outcome of humanities progress as defunct and comparable to a wasted evening, and as such, i'd want to simply finish my life, and keep hope for the future for my posthumous non-existence.

the 60's seemed like a cool time where things weren't too simple but they weren't too hard either. that would have been my kind of living. and add the fact that psychedelics blew up and we were at the edge of a technological and spiritual revolution, i can't imagine a greater decade. the 70's seemed legit too. i think the 80's is where we fucked up though

We had our share of social and economic problems during the 1960's and 1970's.  It wasn't a cakewalk for my parents by any stretch of the imagination.

I used to want to grow up in the 70s but I now I think the late 80s and 90s would have been better. I was born in 93 so I wasn't really old enough to experience it. The 00s where ok though I liked 2000 to about 2007-2008

Every generation wants to live in the last glory days.
But really, these glory days come every 40-60 years it seems.
Before the '60s it was the roaring '20s. The time of prohibition, woman's rights movement, etc. You know, Gatsby type shit.
sounds fun too.
Then before that, it was the Victorian age in the late 1800's. So much beautiful art and literature. And opium.
Point being, is that the past always seems better when it's glorified like it is. Which it is.
We're living is such an amazing fucking time right now, I'm so glad to be growing up in it.
We're witnessing the rise of the internet. The mass globalization of humanity.
The rise of the technological world and the death of organized religion.
The legalization of marijuana, and the shunt of prejudice beliefs and actions.

Just saying, don't waste time trying to live in the past and miss the present.
I guarantee we're gonna hear our kids and grand kids wishing they grew up when we did as well :lol:

We DO live in an abso-fucking-lutely amazing time to be a drug dabbling progressive member of society.

The only reason people will tell you otherwise is because the norms of the society we used to live in are being ripped apart at the seams. The government is failing, mass religion is failing, the drug war is failing, and the war on terrorism is failing. I hate to brag, but my generation (the kids in college right now) are not idiots. We see the shitshow our grandparents put us in, and when we get control of the wheel you better believe the car is going the opposite direction. We're going back home friends.

These past 5 years (and next 10 or so) are slated to become some of the most beautifully DIFFERENT years from our history.
Pessimists will point to all of the problems and go "but we have to worry about THIS and THIS and..."
but if you think about it there has never been a more connected and self-regulated world than the world of today.

We owe it to the fucking internet man. It's up there with Agriculture and Spoken word.

I was a kid in the sixties. My brother got killed in Vietnam because he got a unlucky draft #.The Pot was weak (mostly from Mexico) and there was a lot of divisiveness in the Country. The hippies were too radical and the right was too right.
Only good things I can say was those hip hugger jeans the girls used to wear, no STD's that would kill you, clean LSD ran into the 70's, music was fucking fantastic ...and generally, there were a lot less posers in the world. Things seemed to be a little more black and white.
The other thing I remember fondly is NO fucking cell phones.:grin:

No video games.

No vulgar trash on television.

No cable TV.

The only thing that would make we want to grow up in the 60s, as I know it, was the endless amounts of guilt-free sex.


Other than that, I am so fucking grateful to be in the time period im in now...this is an amazing time

Something there is mysteriously formed,
Existing before Heaven and Earth,
Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging,
All-pervading, unfailing,
I do not know its name; I call it tao.
If forced to give it a name, I call it
Great (ta). Being great, it flows out;
Flowing out means far-reaching;
Being far-reaching, it is said to return.

I sure would. I figure it would put you in your 70's so you could still be alive. Or possibly dead. You would miss out on technology and research chems. Lol. Some are gold. Every time I watch fear and loathing and it gets to this quote I tear up a little and ponder the question..


Strange memories on this nervous night in Las Vegas. Five years later? Six? It seems like a lifetime, or at least a Main Era—the kind of peak that never comes again. San Francisco in the middle sixties was a very special time and place to be a part of. Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run . . . but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant. . . .

History is hard to know, because of all the hired bullshit, but even without being sure of “history” it seems entirely reasonable to think that every now and then the energy of a whole generation comes to a head in a long fine flash, for reasons that nobody really understands at the time —and which never explain, in retrospect, what actually happened.

My central memory of that time seems to hang on one or five or maybe forty nights—or very early mornings—when I left the Fillmore half-crazy and, instead of going home, aimed the big 650 Lightning across the Bay Bridge at a hundred miles an hour wearing L. L. Bean shorts and a Butte sheepherder's jacket . . . booming through the Treasure Island tunnel at the lights of Oakland and Berkeley and Richmond, not quite sure which turn-off to take when I got to the other end (always stalling at the toll-gate, too twisted to find neutral while I fumbled for change) . . . but being absolutely certain that no matter which way I went I would come to a place where people were just as high and wild as I was: No doubt at all about that. . . .

There was madness in any direction, at any hour. If not across the Bay, then up the Golden Gate or down 101 to Los Altos or La Honda. . . . You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning. . . .

And that, I think, was the handle—that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn’t need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting—on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. . . .

So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.

iono about the sixties, i kind of like exotic lookn chicks and i like having the internet.

i was born in 84, so i grew up during the late 80s and 90s.  everything was soooooo cooooooooooool until about 2005.  around 2005/2006 everything just sort of started to suck.  i literally mean everything.  like, all my friends became boring and stupid and ultra cliquey, music started to suck, movies started to suck, TV started to suck...  i couldn't even walk around n look at trees without seeing middle fingers flippn me off.  iono if i went schizo or my dad was having a mid life crisis or something but...  yeah, everything started to just suck ass.

it hasn't really turned around yet either.  i mean a little bit, but...  eh, everything still sorta sucks IMHO.

The big difference between the 60's and now is... we dress better now.


--------------------
You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

I find current times more appealing.
From the internet, to drugs, vehicles, entertainment, and technological advances.
I wouldn't choose another era to grow up in than the current one.
Dosen't mean I wouldn't like to experience a past time period.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

No. Have you ever been around someone that hasn't showered for months at a time? They stink like no other stench on the planet, that shit would straight ruin my trips.
