I'm definitely not a '70s kid, but the first house I lived in had an avocado green stove. Well, maybe it was more split-pea soup green. Hm.

My mum has dedicated an entire room to the 70's. It's her hippie shrine or something. The walls are a funny green, there's blue shag carpet, and a record player some 8 tracks. It's kinda neat.

I love the seventies. Everything was horrible and yet everything makes me recall my childhood. My brother's grass green first communion suit, my mom singing along with the Bee Gees. Wonder Woman. Suffering Sapphos!
What about you? What one thing screams seventies to you? Was it the most horrible time? Or chock full of awesomesauce? less

None of these honestly. I think of dream cars...1970's Chevelle and other big-body muscle cars. FUCK YES.

As far as muscle cars, the 70's remind me of when they (muscle cars) lost the battle to more fuel saving/compact cars.

I was watching a documentary on the muscle cars a while back, and they were talking about how the change in gasoline seemed to coincide with the decline with the muscle car scene. Gas become unleaded and lower octane, and this affected the high performance aspect of the cars. I am not sure how true this is, but it was an interesting perspective to consider.

Men wearing bell bottoms.
Huge mustaches.
Platform shoes.
Flowers, peace signs, tye-dye.
Volkswagen bugs.

I wasn't there, but when I think of the 70s I think of wild, cocaine-driven sex. And lots of it. At least, that's what the movies taught me that the 70s were like...

Haaa, the orange and avocado appliances! And shag carpet!
When we moved into the house that I grew up in (80's but built in the 70's) The carpet was a shag avocado, as was the countertops. The living room was painted a lime green, and one of the bedrooms was mustard yellow. All the rooms had orange curtains!
Yuck!

All of the above and drugs.. Oh yea and bell bottoms.

Being born in 1970 and growing up with two much older siblings I remember this all too well. Platform shoes, bell bottoms, polyester, leisure suits, Beatlemania, shag carpeting, flower power, pet rocks, mood rings, tie dye, peasant skirts, hippies, sideburns,.... gosh I could go on & on. lol

Love this pole, made me laugh. But def the orange and avocado furniture. THat is a sure sign of the 70s!

Melon chops were the first thing that sprang to mind.

I was born in the 90's but my parents had just moved into a house (the one we still are in) but it's had a lot of work done now. Anyways, until I was about 9 or 10 we had carpet that was yellow and brown! Not only was it yellow and brown, but it was that shag shit! Lol. It's actually still in our closets too. Ugh! We also had those ugly yellow appliances. The washing machine, fridge, dryer but I think our dryer was that yucky green color for a while. Anyways, we didn't get a new washer until a few years ago! Ha Ha. We also had that ugly yellow colored stove with an oven connected & it was the most hideous thing. Sadly, we only got rid of that thing less than a year ago! Ha Ha. Whew, I'm glad for the upgrade!
