If those days were truly good, we should see its effects in the present day.

The good days should give birth to better days.

But Here we are still complaining in one area or the other

Nairalandaar: Good old days, where
- Kids don't spend all their days in front of the Television because TV programs will always start by 4pm and end by 10pm/12am

- Quality programs were being shown on the TV, not some unclad ladies assaulting viewers' minds here and there all in the name of modern age

- The Independence Day song for Nigeria was "Nigeria my Beloved Country" by Funmi Adams

- Edifying songs filled the air waves (One Love, Sweet Mother, Omo mi
seun rere, Eko dara pupo)
; not the likes of (Ukwu, Kukere, Skelewu) that are taking away the innocence of little children

- 10Naira was more than enough to feed yourself for a day

- There was no Boko Haram, and the likes...

Oh the good old old days smiley
U'll live long my brother.

here's my addition: we play cashew nuts, we keep em from one season to another. we peers gather in the morning to say our dreams. we play games of insulting ourselves, we ride 'boris', we beg to watch film in friend's room, if we talk in the room we are sent out, nigerian film was most about witchcraft, we tell stories at night, we dont wear pencil trouser neigther baggy, we roam the street shirtless, we play 'canta ball', we thought computer can do almost every thing, we dont have idea what it is.

Good old days was really fun.I remember me and my friends buying asala when school closes and we would hit it together to see who selected the best.The early morning cartoons that made me always go to school late despite my school being very close, and rushing home from school to watch my favourite programs.

If you weren't born in the 80's then you're very unlucky. Mehn i love the ol days

1. The days of wrestlemania (the ultimate warrior, hulk hogan, undertaker e.t.c) those were the glory years of wrestling
2. The days of tom and jerry(the old classic ones not the crap they show these days), Ninja tortoise, Swat cats, Captain planet e.t.c those were the golden era of cartoons
3. The days of Nitel landlines
4. The afro hair and mustache was king
5. The days of Africola, Vimto, buluna(i think), e.t.c
6. The days of 'Coming to America', Going bananas, Good the bad and the ugly, The mummy, Airforce one, Home alone, American Pie, Rambo, The mask, Jurassic Park, Titanic e.t.c Now those are real motion pictures not the crap movies we have today
7. The days of Super Mario, Street fighter, Mortal kombat, Donkey kong, Super NES, Atari, SEGA MEGA e.t.c those were cool games
8. The days of Gala snack, goodie goodie, baggy jeans, the walk man, Arcade games, even the internet was cooler back then(AOL, Yahoo).

The good ol days were better jor.

there is a saying that we should:

learn from the past
live in the present
