One of the best lines in Get Out, and when taken into context:
-
I really enjoyed when I got out of college and started working. I was like IM RICHNEsnake12 said:2005-2007; basically post-Iraq war and pre-Recession. We has a perceived good economy, the golden age of the internet, no social media, retail hasn’t been murdered yet, and we had most all of the other modern technology like cell phones/MP3 players/DVR/etc. And internet porn

This is true, however we’re getting a lot of takeout from neighborhood shops to hopefully keep their doors open.Pitchfork51 said:

The Soviet Union had elections in the 1920s tooincremetal_progress said:
Enacting policy that people who elected you to represent them actually like?MikeDamone said:
People being stupid doesn't prove the policy was good. If a president gave everyone a million dollars (Like Bloomberg could) and was elected 5 times does this mean it was a good policy? No. It means people are like hamsters and will keep taking hits off the sugar water as long as they canincremetal_progress said:
It was such a crock that Roosevelt was re-elected 3 times with that as his signature policy accomplishment. Makes sense.MikeDamone said:
Disagree. The economy during the war was terrible. The golden age didn’t start until around 1950.PurpleThrobber said:
Fuck that.incremetal_progress said:
Ike wasn't necessarily the best president, he just governed during the best time. Combine FDR's new deal framework with the post war economic boom and you have a golden age.PurpleThrobber said:
Except it was Ike who sent the Federal troops into Little Rock Central HS when the Democratic governor of Arkansas refused to educate black children.incremetal_progress said:the Eisenhower days.
90% tax rates and the strongest middle class in American history.
Granted it still wasn't so good for Blacks, but still...
correlation =/= causation.
The industrialization of America for WWII is what created the Golden Age, not any fucking New Deal.
Agree is wasn’t the disastrous New Deal. What a crock that was
What a travesty.... -
The 90s.
Best era of Husky football.
Best era of rap music.
Post Cold War, Pre 9/11.
Best era of the NBA.
Baseball was big.
The NFL was just another sport, it wasn’t omnipresent.
Star Wars wasn’t ruined until the very end.
If the weed was legal and the beer was better it’d be perfect. -
Also by 92 I had probably established a good consistent kung fu grip so that period was a very good time for me.

Also the WWE attitude Era. Stone cold versus Vince Mcmahon. Greatest 2-3 year run in WWE history.ThomasFremont said:The 90s.
