This may sound funny but

...I've always felt I was born in the wrong era/generation/time.

I have two that are obsessively my favorites and really wish I was born in either of them!

1. The late 1800's. I'm talking Little House on the Prairie. Things were so simple back then. People relied on one another for entertainment, friendship, companionship, not gadgets and the internet. The bond of families were so strong. And seeing the evolution of the use of electricity and cars to name s few, would have been fascinating!

2. The mid-late 1960's. I'm a silly, hyper, outgoing person and the 60's were so socially accepting of one another. People just...had fun. Social misconceptions weren't as rampant. Superficiality didn't rule the world, as it does today.

I feel overwhelmed with modern technology. While I think modern gadgets, science and so on are fascinating, I could do without it all. I'd pbe perfectly happy with smiling people and free thinkers. Instead of the internet and LCD TVs. ;)



You?
I feel the same about being born in the wrong time. The only difference is I wish I was born in 2286 instead of 1986 because I love technology. :D
 
I was born in the early sixties, & while I can remember the early 70's, I can't remember the late 70's. I loved growing up in the days when metal was just forming & some of the greatest bands in the world were stil young & "experimenting".

I agree with gling, I love gadgets & SciFi &, if man survived, being born a few hundred years from now may have resulted in access to space travel - awesome.
