    Just about every time period sucks

    The only time period that was enjoyable was only enjoyed by a small portion of the global population at any one time

    Many people on this thread like to point out the 80s, 90s or early 2000s were great … it is true for only about maybe 10% of the global population … the rest were living with developing nations with very little and everyone still struggling like they always had

    The world has always been the same throughout history … I’m guessing about 70% of the population lived just enough to get by … 29% lived with absolutely nothing … and 1% lived with everything

    And it’s still the same today.

        on a boring, dumb, ugly planet in a boring, dumb, ugly universe.

        You were spot on with the species.

        Absolutely and in all ways incorrect about the planet, or universe.
