One interesting observation is how much less variation there has been in clothes for the past 20 years or so. Someone from 2005 could look completely undisguisable from someone today, by just wearing regular non-fashion forward 2005 clothes. Same goes for haircuts.

Same can't really said about someone from 1955 and 1975, 1980 - 2000, etc.

edit: Score 4695 Avg. Years Off 3.0

Well there's very little "common" cultural influence these days. It used to be that you could see a significant episode of a TV show and EVERYONE was talking about it the next day in the office. Now you're lucky if you can even find one person that has seen the show you're even talking about, let alone if they are "caught up" on it since many people prefer to buffer a few episodes while they watch other things.

Agreed, I think the last of the shows where everyone talked about was Game of Thrones.
