It’d be the Roaring 20’s for me.

I am a child of the 70’s and I like it that way. The 1970’s had it all; disco, punk, bell bottoms, bad hair, platform shoes, Burt Reynolds, Watergate, two candy bars for a quarter, The Godfather Parts I and II, The Paris Peace Accords, The Bob Newhart Show, barrel dining room sets, Lee Press-On Nails, and the AMC Pacer,

The Elizabethan era and the 50’s for the fashion or 70’s for the music.

As the quality of life that I enjoy would probably not be available to me in any other era than today, I pick today’s era. However, I also think it would be really interesting to live in the twenties. Flappers ftw.

The hippie era. I just read The Gospel According to The Beatles and got super bummed that I have to live in this no sex, no drugs, stick-up-our-asses era.

Early Roman empire days, under Augustus, as long as I was rich. You could do pretty much anything you wanted, and it was encouraged.

God, this is way hard.
Maybe the early Greek Mythology ages, just because I’m Spartan. So that’d be hardcore.

And if not then. Then the 20’s or 40’s.
I definitely should not have been born in ‘89. Totally wrong era for me.

not sure. i like to think that being around in the 50s would be awesome, or the 20s, or the 60s. but i’m not sure if i’d actually want to grow up then. it sounds lovely and everything, but i don’t know if the pros outweigh the cons. there was a lot more prejudice, etc back then, so i don’t really know.

In the year 2525, and I would teach history.
