2000-2009 - Worst Decade Since the 40s

Post by Lossieboy »

As we only have a few months till the start of a new decade Id like to ask people what they have thought about the past 10 years.

With the exception of Obama (And honestly the jury is still out on him) I struggle to think of any positive major events this past decade.

It's been a decade a topsy-turvy decade, hasn't it? Lots of growth in the first 3-4 years and a big downturn in the last 18 months. The decade started with the .com boom.....and then bust. Then we had terrorist attacks in 01 and 03 followed by wars.

I don't know how you can say it's been the worst decade since the 40s though. Weren't there still rations through half of the 50s? Fear of nuclear war through the 60s and 70s? Mass strikes and riots through the 80s and mass unemployment through the first half of the 90s?

The only thing different about this decade has been how much more aware we are of globalisation thanks to the WWW. Has there been a decade with so much free information and global socialising? The amount of information at our hands now is fucking ridiculous compared to other generations. We don't really appreciate it of course.

As the earth gets older people get less intelligent . Hier is an example , amateur porn is very easy for the majority und professional porn is very difficult for the majority . In gonzo , reality und internet porn ( amateur porn ) you have many people competing und backstabbing eachother to see who can shoot the worst quality . Slanted shots , terrible lighting , always moving camera that looks like it was shot by someone with parkinsons disease or someone who is a methanphetamine user . In the past one performer told me it was to capture the heat . No it is because you dont know how to shoot . People always put their name on to direct . But wait a minute if you let the performers do what they want then you did not direct the video did you ? You not only flood the market with shite product , you are lying about being a director . The moral of this story is that this is the decade of the talentless who are destroying the dvd market for their own greed . Look into the mirror at yourselves .
