Is it normal i sometimes wish i lived in the 1970s?
I’ve posted before about how much I love all of the content that came out then, but sometimes I worry my obsession goes too far. I find myself wishing I lived back then, when there was no internet or iPhones and people just talked to each other, when the hippie counter culture was on its last legs, when there were low budget schlocky exploitation films coming out in theaters, when heavy metal was in its infancy, and almost all of the popular music was some form of rock.
For whatever reason I’m more partial to the early 70s, but the late 70s were great too. Star Wars had just come out and the fan base wasn’t as much of a mess, but for some reason the earlier half of the decade just feels better to me.
I hate hearing about how long ago it was, I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that it was literally half a century ago already! I guess I’ll have to accept the fact that I’ll never be a part of it, and that I can just enjoy the content made then in a modern setting.
