Johnny Hammersticks Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 The time in my life before real responsibilities; career, marriage, kids, mortgage, etc... Much simpler time where all I had to worry about was getting laid and having a good time. Could travel/move anywhere I wanted with no strings attached. Those were the good ‘ol days for me. I’m really happy with where I’m at in life right now, but I remember those times very fondly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I think the OP was taking it one step beyond a simple definition of what the phrase means, and asking posters to apply the definition to their personal lives. I.E., what time period in your life was that simpler, happier time, and why? We all know what the phrase means, but we don't know how you would apply it to your life. 21 minutes ago, The Real Buffalo Joe said: Girls were girls, and men were men. The way Glenn Miller played.

Hey, whatever blows your hair back, fella. If showering in my beautiful guest bathroom is what you’re needing, please wait until after 8am to knock on the door ? Just bring your own soap. I don’t want any foreign short-curlies in my bar of Irish Spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BringBackFergy Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I think I met @Gugny in 2014 or so. My life was a lot simpler before that day. I had a positive outlook on life, smelled flowers, didn't have a jaded world view. All that changed when he took out his notepad and introduced himself saying "I'm Gugny...I'll be your waiter today". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy! That’s exactly how I met Gugny. Except after that he slowly turned to my wife and said “want to smell my finger?” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpler times. And we wore onions from our belts, as was the fashion in the day. The "good old days" means that time in your life when you didn't have the responsibilities of an adult. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the good Good Ole' Days, men were men...and children, they were men too... and women had moxie and smoked cigars and they could take a punch cause they were also men. And nobody ever f@#$ed around or got confused about their gender because they were men, and that type of thing could get your ass beat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does the phrase mean to you means what does the !@#$ing phrase mean to YOU. How can you interpret it any other way? Anyway, sorry for the digression. For me “the good old days” harkens back to a time where people actually understood the meaning of a simple sentence. Que?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 1975 to 1985. (Post hippie era) Lots of ladies going braless. The topless law passed in Monroe County for women to bare it all on public beaches. Lots of good weed at a decent price. Great Rock and Roll music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
