At least there was Atari/Nintendo and home computers already, as primitive as they were. I'd hate to have been born in the 70s and earlier. Sounds boring as fuck for a kid.

I was born in the 70s but I don't really remember much of it, like it didn't have a personality the way the 80s did. Everything was burnt orange and the TV really sucked.

Everything was burnt orange

Now would that be the actual decor, or the nicotine/tar stains, or a bit of both?

A little of both but a lot of it was the shag carpeting.
