Just want to comment to say bars were shitty and only being able to interact in your very localized community was shitty, all the twenty somethings I talk to now are involved in interesting things, we'd sit drinking beer and debating which pop stars from the 70s are dead based on vague memories of news stories.

And 95% of the people you knew weren't friends they were just people you'd had so many boring conversations with that you both felt obligated to have another one if you're in the bar together.

The old days sucked every bit as much as now, probably less because kids don't seem to need to drink and take as many drugs as we did, they've got actual things that interest them and ambitions and stuff.
