It was a youth oriented culture in the 1960s, same in the 1970s but darker, more adult or middle aged in the 1980s and 1990s, stagnated in the 00s and now is lapsing into senility. Things might actually get better in twenty years when these people finally die but we are in for a sludge until then. And New York is more sensitive to these changes.Ednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-83301549130588806622012-10-03T11:28:17.889-04:002012-10-03T11:28:17.889-04:00Yeah, just what we need.
Ya know, the 80s and 90s...Yeah, just what we need.<br /><br />Ya know, the 80s and 90s may have been a long time ago, but it wasn't exactly the dark ages. I can only imagine that back then when I was in my 20s and I told my friends that I wanted to go to a bubble tea or fro-yo place they probably would've looked at me and said "What are you, and eight year old kid? You go get you're little bubble tea and frozen yogurt, we'll be over at Downtown Beirut...acting our age.
