I read a biography on Darby Crash a while ago. According to the book
he went to a school run by scientologists, who made everyone meditate
and do TM instead of math. He dropped acid with at least one of his
teachers. The environment seemed like nothing schools would be able to
get away with today. Every time the author would interview people
about it they would just reply, " It was the 70's". I asked three
people at my work who were alive and kicking in the 70's what that
meant and they all got real quiet. Seems something happened in the
70's no one wants to talk about.

The 70's. it was terrible! J.R. "Bob" Dobbs was hitchhiking around the
USA, butt raping everyone, but that was nothing compared to Disco.

Platform shoes mis-aligned everyone's spines and brains, and people
got much stupider. Then they took qualudes.

=================================

To be fair, there was Porn Chic, when it was cool for couples to go to porn
theaters. I kinda miss that.

But fashions sucked, as all fashion does in hindsight.

Politics sucked - Nixon followed by Ford followed by Carter.

But, yes, Disco. Ugh. Disco even invaded Country Music - *that* was how bad
Disco sucked.

I don't really remember anything but the buttraping, not even the
disco.

Didn't most of the anti-porn feminism happen during the porn chic
period. Ouch!
