The 1960s

The 1960s was the decade that started on January 1, 1960, and ended (more or less) on December 31, 1997. It was the seventh decade of the 20th century.

The 60s was known as the "swinging" sixties,on account of a defect in the earths rotation that caused it to swing violently during the whole decade (this explains why the beatles were always coming out of planes with their hair waving about). the problem was solved in 1969 when the earths momentum was balanced out by all the nuclear tests the americans were doing. As lyndon johnson famously said: lot of people got very seasick (and pissed off)at me,and i can see why.

Wars
there were a lot of wars in the sixties. so many,in fact,that a survey in 1968 showed that making unnecessary wars and annoying communists were the most popular American pastimes after complaining about hippies and having picnics on the moon.

Nuclear threats
the bomb was a big part of life in the sixties,although no one was ever sure which bomb this was,or if it even existed.the confusion about the bomb even caused time magazine to produce a book of the top 100 sexiest bombs.At one point there was even a adult bomb magazine industry,although it lost popularity and legality after it turned out this used leaked secret government documents that were being used by "commies" to create their own bombs.

Culture
In 1961 the top ten things people wanted to do where

1. Have a wank on the moon

2. Destroy the earth many times over with nuclear weapons.

3. Have an atomic wank on the moon.

4. kill Austin powers.

5. have a shit in a moon crater.

6. Napalm everything.

7. I've run out of Ideas.

9. while in space,have a piss while orbiting over the USSR.

10. The same as above,except while doing all of the other aims AT THE SAME TIME.

Mexico
A lot of very interesting things happened in Mexico during the sixties.Unfortunately no one gave a shit so these events went unrecorded.
