A l t e r E g o 9 Posted August 11, 2004 This is the "I love/hate the (put a decade here) because" game. Example: I say; I love the 60's because that was the decade we went to the Moon. Now you give a reason why you love or hate the same^ decade I gave then you get to choose a decade and say why you love or hate it. See? It is perfectly ok if answers lead to topical discussions, I think that makes it more interesting. Topical discussions may go on as others continue to play the game around them. Using quote boxes should help keep talks/game-playing separated. It may not wash but we'll give it try... I love the 60s because that was the decade Star Trek was created.

(I remember where I was; in a car in Redding on Market Street right in front the Union76 gas station when the news of his death came on the radio.) I love the 50s because that was the decade I was born. I hate the 70s because of Disco... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BakulaBabe 2 Posted August 12, 2004 I love the 60's because there were so many exciting & interesting things going on (some good, some bad). I, too, hate the 70's because of Disco! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I, too, hate the 70's because of Disco! 249255[/snapback] Oops BB, you must first say why you love or hate WABs decade (90s), then you may say why you love or hate a decade of your choosing and why. <You got that part right>, "I love the 60's because there were so many exciting & interesting things going on (some good, some bad)." is good but it comes after you say why you hate the 90s. The part about disco works too but only as 'topical discussion'. See? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
