It's also been said that the hippies of the 60's were the prototype yuppies - their motto being "individuality - do your own thing and stuff society!" Youthful idealism is fine, but they spent an awful lot of time enjoying themselves.<BR/><BR/>And what about the 70's? When you read the papers of the time, you discover a truly bloody horrible era.<BR/><BR/>Personally I liked the 80's. People had the bollocks to stand up for what they believed in, and people today forget that the "money" thing came after a long period of financial deprivation. Some of us were SO poor in the 70's and early 80's it HURT.<BR/><BR/>What I say to Yellow Swordfish and everybody else is: misrepresenting the past and whinging is never a good idea. Live for today.<BR/><BR/>And for fuck's sake quit being so sanctimonious and up yourselves!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
