Re: GOAT decade ?
I have a soft spot for the 80s but I'd say that the 60s are probably the GOAT decade. Great and hugely influential music, movies, and art during that time period. Fashion was pretty great back then and the political/social atmosphere must have been intense. It was by far the most action packed decade we've had since WWII. Kennedy assassination, Civil Rights & MLK assassination, the beginning of the space race, etc.
Also, consumerism was new and fresh so it was an intensely debated topic. These days it is just accepted as part of life as we know it but back then more people were talking about the merit of consumerism, advertising, etc. I think it would have been an incredibly interesting time.

Re: GOAT decade ?
As much as I love/loved the old classics, the video game industry today is pretty unreal. I'm sure many will still say the 90's takes the cake though.

Gotta go with the 60's as the most influential as well. 70's, 80's, and 90's are up there in terms of movies (still gotta watch some more from earlier eras). 90's had classic video games, good hip hop (Wu Tang, Tupac, Biggie, Nas, etc.), Nickelodeon in its prime, and a competent president.
With music, I would go with the 70's (although the 2010's are off to a great start, might take that spot in a few years, IMO). Sports: 90's. Tech: (unfair) 00's, tech in the 10's is obviously more advanced but its gotten to the point where it consumes people's lives.
If I had to choose one to live in, it would be the 80's.

I'm a 90's guy too. It's where you had a good balance of simplicity, new age and modern.

For real though, seems like when this debate pops up people only consider from the 60s to the present.
Well, modern medicine and standard of living post-WWII makes anything before 1950 look pretty shitty.

I would say the first decade of the existence of the Universe was the GOAT decade. Lotta shit happened real quick.
