This. A thousand times this. At least in the 20th century.

The '90s in most places, but really it depends on where.

I think he meant to type the 70's.

Both were good, but I went with the 90s because of my love for 90s video games.

Ah yes, the 1980s: the era of Reagan, crack, and AIDS.




Guys, c'mon, the 1990s was one of the best decades in history, this isn't even a question.

Both sucked.  I guess I pick 90's since I'm a 90's kid by definition.

I grew up in the 90s and I like most things about the decade (TV, music, President Clinton, etc). I like a lot about the 80s as well, especially the music, but very little of it can beat out the 90s for me.

Culturally the 1990s, politically the 1980s.

There are people in this very thread - real human beings! - who think that the '80's had better music than the '90's.

The '80s were better, because it was the '90s when fascism was mainstreamed.
