It’s a good movie but the pot stuff is a lottle overbthe top...annoying.
That’s what I love about these high school girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age.
Yes, they do.
It’s like watching my high school years on TV.
Sometimes it makes me cry.
Those days were more golden than I knew at the time.
Class of ‘79.
Dead on with my own timeline.
I had fun
Alice cooper, alice cooper!
Started high school in ‘77, graduated by the skin of my teeth, Allegany High, Class of ‘81. High school was Dazed and Confused, and I stepped right into Fast Times at Ridgemont High Meets Animal House my freshman year of college. I can’t remember a lot of it now, which may be for the best, in some cases. I’m lucky I’m still vertical.
Never hung out At Kent state?
Jeeez I had fun

This movie nails it. I was a rising Senior in an Austin high school on the day that this movie was set in (May 1976). I know all the locations, loved the music, appreciated all the cool cars and totally got all the characters. Armadillo World Headquarters was rolling and Willie Nelson and the whole Redneck Rock scene was happening then. Drinking age was 18 (that really means 15) — there were some very large times in Austin back then.

So true. Our reality was both Dazed and Fast Times.
We had our faults, too, but the youth of today are really troubled.
Yeah, even if we colored outside the lines a little (who hasn’t?) and didn’t see eye to eye with ‘The Man’ all the time, we knew where that invisible demarcation was. We’d do things just to tweak people, but we weren’t out there looting, burning buildings, shooting randomly, and pulling down statues. These dropouts from society don’t even know what the hell they want, half of them, but they follow the herd because they have no direction in life.
I will never forget “Alice Cooper: The Nightmare” popping up on ABC one night in 1975.
My. Whole. Life. Changed.
Still have the original VHS.
Alice is in a That 70s Show episode.
Pretty funny.
