When I was a kid, I thought, “I wish I was alive when Elvis and the Beatles were around.”
Now I hear kids say, “I wish I was alive when arcades were around, and there were real Outrun cabinets.”
Time is a funny thing because kids imagine these arcades were neon-drenched in pink and purple, with people casually wearing powergloves and leather jackets.
So it makes me wonder if my entire idea of the 50s and 60s is a caricature.
