ITT: Cred Forums in 1978
That bicycle I purchased last week should be here some time before 1980.
Fck Suárez, this whole democracy thing isn't going to catch on.
OH GOD, DISCO SUCKS
I literally know so little about history I'm not sure what memes to say
The Vietnam war was somewhere around there right
no
drat
I was born
Three goddamn years since the fall of Saigon.
But since you're in 1978 Australia, you should be posting OH GOD, AC/DC SUCKS.
It's pretty much the usual.
>be tortured by secret police for listening to Voice of America
>hear propaganda bullshit about how tractor production increased 300% last year
>wait months to buy a coffee table
>get sick from eating garbage commie diet
no you weren't
Social democracy is the only way forward for society you guys
Olof Palme will make sweden great again
So how's punk rock going?
I believe we were committing war crimes against suspected communists.
This country in 1978/79 was literally unrecognisable to today. Paralysed by mass strikes, by everyone from rubbish collectors to health workers. We had to go to the IMF for an emergency loan. We were considered the "sick man of Europe". Then based Thatcher came in and cleaned up the shit.
People laughing at the Rolling Stones and The Who as old has-been dinosaurs and nutlicking Johnny Rotten...
it's dead already. Now we have post-punk
Boy Australia sure is comfy
Not the best times in America either.
>shit 70s economy
>bad inflation and high interest rates
>cars are undrivable ugly boats
>although they're starting to get a little more fuel efficient now
>the US military is an underfunded, demoralized mess full of drug addicts and racial violence
>disco rules the airwaves
>personal computers are just starting to be a thing
Generally, it's taken that punk died on February 2, 1979.
70s was pretty much heaven here
IT'S A LONG WAY TO THE TOP...
Honestly when people say the 70s was shit, they mostly mean "The US and Britain" when many countries were enjoying boomtimes like West Germany and Japan. Any country with a lot of oil like Mexico, the Arab states, and Norway were also going great guns.
Shhhh, gotta keep the radio dial down. Don't want my neighbors to know I'm listening to that.
my parents got married this year but i wasn't born until 12 years later
kekkonen.
You can has Pope! Yaaaayyyy...
I just wrote a program in BASIC to move the letter X across the screen on my TRS-80. How cool is that?
fuck it is great to live in Belgium, we have everything we need and live amongst our white native countrymen only
thinking of buying a Betamax VCR with my savings, or a ZX-80 home computer, I already have a cassette recorder.

Albertos Y Los Trios Paranoias : Kill + Gobbing on Life : Rockpalast 14.1.78
They were a great band, too bad the singer died in 1980 and they stopped.
That New Joy Division Album was Incredible.
Now that those terrorists are caught we should have a peaceful future
hey guys, wanna hear a joke about USSR?
I mean, what could possibly go wroing
sure is going nice in this country, future looks so bright
>ZX-80
>release date: 1980

Scared a Farmer to death when i played it.
He only ever heard Country and now he's dead poor Bastid.
watup guys you know beatles
So, there's another general strike, I guess I can't go to work for another week.
You guys know this new upcoming band called Van Halen?
Their guitarist is dope
Fucking crazy, man
Things are about to get better for jimmy carter right!? poor guy just cant catch a break
ha ha, it was nothing, just a little chat at the police station
*sound of blood dripping*
they even gave me my teetch back in a plastic bag ha ha, great lads, long live socialism
Yeah we need good new bands. If things keep going the way they are, disco will completely wipe out rock in a few years.
Just waited 5 hours in queue to buy a pack of macaroni. Feels good man, record time. Also, i'm on the waiting list to buy a car. Maybe i can get the permit to purchase one in 1983.
Sure is weird that the government brought 150 000 people from eastern Russia to live over here.
He should be grand, just needs to stay away from those rivers when he's fishing.
I've heard some scary rumours......
