Any fans of the 90's? I'm definitely one

1. It was truly the era of music, techno, dance, pop, everything
2. The movies were awesome, classics, Pulp fiction, Home Alone, Goodfellas, too many awesome movies.
3. Definitely the era of parties, that's for sure.
4. I remember waking up every saturdays when I was sleeping at my grandparents to watch the cartoons (bugs-bunny, taz, stuff like that)
5. If only I could relive them again.

 

The 90s were great including 8 wonderful years under the Clinton Administration, a strong economy, and Star Trek: The Next Generation

don't forget:
Grunge.
Kurt Cobain.
Nirvana.

 

Emisue - You're really cute

 

thank you. [[=
you're very nice.

 

according to your info, you were 10 when the '90s ended. did you really do that much partying?

anyway, if you really want to party, get yourself an eight-ball and go back to the 80s

 

The 90's rocked, at least the second half. I gave up on trying to make a living in the country in 95 and moved to the (itty bitty) city, started temping so I didn't care any more about "the company" than they cared about me. Nobody minded if you flew your freak flag there, no need to "keep up appearances" like in Smallville. No Dubya. Broadband just got there, and since I was one of their first installers I got it free. Discovered the SCA, got to dress weird and hit each other with sticks. Life was mellow.

Downside - the venue that had Tull, Sabbath, and Deep Purple in the late 70's and early 80's started having revivals and tractor pulls in the 90's. Same little city went from being a cool college town to nouveau-riche yuppyville vs. the poor common man. Got cancer in 1999, but beat it, wasn't able to work afterward so learned to live on disability. Son moved away from home for the big city (NYC), don't get to see him much.

So, some up, some down. Good time to be alive, though, but just about any time is.

 

Hmmmm. As one who has seen several decades come and go, the 90's were boring.

Musically forgettable too.

Aside from Reagan and punk music, I could almost say the same about the 80's.

i was hoping the 90s would be to the 80s what the 60s where to the 50s, and in a sense they were, but the 00's tnx to corprotocracy and the neo-cons, are more like going back to the 50s, or maybe even the 20s and 30s, what my parents told me about how they were before i was born, then any sort of reprise of the 70s or the 1910's.

i just wish everyone who has yet to know in their lives a decade better then the 90s, could have seen the 70s and 60s where, or near where i was then.

it's not like there weren't problems, and bone headed opposition to everything good like there always is, but there were contexts that can probably any more be only imagined. for me, i measure civilization by public transport infrastructure and imaginativeness of tecnological speculation and hoped for harmonious intigration with natural diversity, as much as music and literature.

the 90s gave us this internet, without which we wouldn't be HERE now.
the 80s gave us these computers but pretty much screwed up everything else.
the 70s gave us psychodelic rainbows.
the 60s a kind of techno-liberation
the 50s, post 40s fortune

the 00s began as a milinium of peace, untill those who can't stand the idea that there might some day be universal abundance put their greedy egos ahead of what would have been even their own REAL gratification and have so far screwed us out of it.

people ARE getting tired of that, as they always get of anything that hangs arround for too long, so i do have hopes for the 2010s.

i'm a fan of the 90s!

 

If you expect better from the hip posters, then you're at the wrong website

90's rule, that's why:H

 

The decade that brought us ravers. A fault no positives can overcome.

 

You are ignorant.

 

Perhaps you're saying that in ignorance.

 

The 90's brought many more things then ravers. I kinda like the rave thing as well though.

 

The 90's may not be the decade I would have chosen to grow up in, but I definately had a good time. I don't see anything that matches the house parties that I did in the 90's. It seems like now everyone in the neighborhood keeps to themselves, whereas when I was growing up you'd talk to everyone on the block before the day is up.

I drive my truck bouncing up down and side to side by the flip of the switch, and I can't help but to sometimes put some Eazy E, Tupac, etc. in the CD player. Good Times for sure

Makes me want a 40 right now

 

I was born in the 90's, so i probs miss the 90's more because you have less problems on your mind. But the thing i remember in the 90's was the revolution of the macarena and it getting overplayed at the roller dromes. Also the shows like captain planet, the original power rangers and the decade where "Hey Hey its Saturday" got cancelled (for australians)

 

I am a fan of the 90's. Having witnessed most of the trasitional phases (Particularly on the music front). I look back with a tear in my eye. I am a fan of the 90's because we didn't have the knife wealding, gun carrying youth that we have today. In comparrison, today is a conceptual nightmare, yesterday was like a time of cosmic innocence and rennaissance. I am also a fan of the 90's because at the time we had John Major. Lewisham for me was in a transitional phase. The Lewisham2000 project. But anyway, kids were not so independent then. We didn't have the PC Brigade, the Anti smoking brigade and the Health and safety brigade. We had more freedom and those who fought in the war for our freedom, didn't fight invain. Only today, we see British freedom's quashed by these brigades who have more power than the government themselves. It seems like our pensioners fought invain, after Brownies vanquishing of our freedom to the EU. EUUUUUH!
I definately miss the 90's. Those who were born in the 90's, you missed a lot of stuff. The 90's were better than the 80's and films were good too. The Mask, Ace ventura, Terminator 2. Some great bands include, Spin Doctors, Nirvana, 4 non blondes and Oasis.

 

the ninties was a moment of calm between right wing loonies shredding the constitution in the 80s and the 00s. it wouldhave, couldhave, shouldhave been, another 60s and 70s, but it wasn't. i think clinton really tried, or at least wanted to, but was too hamstrung from doing so, perhapse to some degree by his own personal interests.

i did feel a lot of hope during much of that decade. and it was when i was first able to get on the internet, having been more or less isolated from things tecno and online from about the mid 80s to well into it by my own mostly homelessness during much of that time.

obviously i'm not a 'child' of that decade. my own adolescence was in the 60s, childhood in the 50s, and the age most people on here appearently are now, in the 70s.
