Back in 1963, romance was a whole different ball game. No swiping right or left; you had to put in the effort. "Back in my day, we had to walk ten miles uphill in the snow to ask someone out." And the love letters! Today, it's all emojis and abbreviations. In 1963, they wrote letters that could make Shakespeare blush.
Imagine getting a love letter today that says, "Thy presence causeth my heart to beat like a thousand wild stallions." You'd probably reply with, "U up?" Romance has become so efficient; we've forgotten the art of poetic wooing. Bring back the handwritten love letters, I say. "Dear crush, roses are red, violets are blue, swipe right because I like you.
You know, 1963 was a wild year. I mean, it's so long ago that when someone says 'back in '63,' I'm thinking, "Oh, you mean when dinosaurs were still giving each other high-fives?" But seriously, things were different back then. We didn't have smartphones; we had "smart-dumb" people. Like, you'd ask them for directions, and they'd give you this elaborate roadmap that looked like it was drawn by a confused squirrel on caffeine.
And what about fashion in 1963? I've seen pictures, and all I can say is, "Who hurt you, fashion industry?" Bell-bottoms were probably invented as a social experiment to see how many people could trip over their own pants and still act cool. And don't get me started on the hairdos. I bet even the birds were confused, thinking, "Is that a nest or a hair salon?
Let's compare 1963 to today. In 1963, people were excited about the color TV. In 2023, we're excited when our Wi-Fi works for a whole day. "Back in 1963, we had three TV channels and thought life couldn't get any better. Now we have three hundred channels, and we spend an hour deciding what to watch, only to end up watching cat videos on YouTube."
And can we talk about space travel? In 1963, we were dreaming about landing on the moon. In 2023, we're arguing about whether Pluto is still a planet or not. I don't know about you, but I miss the good old days when the biggest debate was whether Elvis's hip movements were too scandalous for TV.
