That album was literally the first time I found myself enjoying music.
-
Dude that album is so lame. NWA all the way for me!

We don't have any internet in my house. In fact we barely have any internet in this country at all.
Which means I'm spared from reading lame message-board threads so, hey, it's not all bad.

Check out this slammin' purple and neon green windbreaker I got today, guys!
-
Hey guys I just invested most of my savings into the up-and-coming enterprise of MC Hammer!

Anyone wanna trade yo-yo's? I just got a new yellow one and it has stuff inside that makes it come back up the string when it slows down, somebody called it a clutch but it doesn't seem to be as good a yo-yo as the one I got with a bearing ring in the middle that makes it spin for minutes.

I'm watching Johnny Quest re-runs, you guys.
The old ones, or The "Real" Adventures? Important difference!
-
Is the point of this thread that, as the naughties draw to a close, we are going to see an even stronger revival of the relevance of the 1990's in popular culture? Since we will have a generation of young people who only barely remember them, and we're already seeing a trend in fashion of a return to more casual clothing, specifically the outdoorsy, loose jeans/flannel wearing that characterized the early years of the decade, we can begin to expect to see 90's theme parties, possibly a return of grunge, and even more nostalgia for a generation past?
-

Wait a minute, I think you're right. I checked Wikipedia and I was thinking of The Real Adventures Of Johnny Quest.
Damn. Well, I'm going to go play--OH SHIT, WHERE DID MY GAMBEBOY GO
-
Daddy, why are we watching TV during dinner?
- Because a land just started throwing stones at another land.
What for, Dad?
- They say the man in the other land is mean but really they just want his stuff.
What stuff?
- It is called oil. You need it for cars and toys.
Okay.
-

I don't see 90's parties being anything beyond ironic (but then, I remember the 90's, so I don't really count?) but I think we've seen early 90's music start to make a sort of comeback. Hip bands of the last year have taken on a shoegaze-y element to them, haven't they? (Deerhunter comes to mind, but there have to have been others) A return to grunge or, say, industrial rock, I probably would not enjoy.
Considering that elements of grunge can be unmistakably heard in the odious corporate rock of today (we wouldn't have Creed or Nickelback without Pearl Jam!) I wouldn't bank on grunge making a return to the good graces of fashion. But I could be totally off.
-
Hey guys, I just heard that Emperor Domitian is persecuting the hell out of some Christian jerks. Fuck those weird-ass cannibal dudes.
-
REVOLUTION GRRRL STYLE NOW!!
-
Yeah dude, they eat their own god
wtf
-
Guys, Superman just died. Isn't that so sad?
-
Yeah, but I really doubt grunge's influence ends at Nickelback, Creed and Godsmack. Then again, I'm probably just bitter because I liked AIC and Badmotorfinger era Soundgarden. Plus, I also think Degradation Trip might have actually been a fairly decent album had Layne Staley still been alive, so I'm clearly biased as hell. Oh well.
Also, this thread mostly sucks and I think it's really obvious there's not many of us here old enough to really remember what it is we're making fun of.
-
what the fuck is the internet?
-
Seriously, guys. Has anyone seen my Gameboy? It had my Pokemon Red cartridge in it.
-
Fuck you all, I'm gonna go play some fucking Ocarina of Time. For days

Yeah, but as far as Grunge was founded as an opposition to the rock mainstream, I don't think a retro-version would be relevant anymore. When Grunge started, rock stations played mostly party songs and Grunge moved things more towards angst-ridden introspective moaning (not knocking it, I ate that shit up when I was 13). Now everything you hear on mainstream pop stations is angst-ridden introspective moaning, so what would be the point of a retro-grunge movement?
-
This is kind of a terrible list thread of what I imagine people 20 years from now will jokingly talk about the 90s being popular for. Some of the posters in this thread had not entered the first grade by the time 2000 came.
-
Seriously, guys. Has anyone seen my Gameboy? It had my Pokemon Red cartridge in it.
What you lost your pokemon red? Fuck man, who am I supposed to trade with now to get all 150 pokemon? My mom only let me buy blue.

Damn that is a terrifying thought.
-
At a car boot sale a lady called all my childhood toys 'old'.
-
Some of the posters in this thread had not entered the first grade by the time 2000 came.
Way to make me feel old as hell Tyler.
Especially since today I am now 20..
-
you, my dear, are not old as hell.
this nostalgia thing is always a bit strange to me, because i feel like there are way more people in the ohmannostalgia group than there should be. when i was in high school, it was all about 80s nostalgia. now, i love a good 80s power ballad as much as the next person, but i also recognize that i was born in 1984, so i was 5 when the decade officially ended. i am a child of the 80s in the sense that i was born in the decade, but the lifestyle and trends that represent the 80s were not really for me. most of the 90s are a bit before my reach even, but closer as far as the nostalgia bit goes. i know that times may have changed now, but honestly, when you were in second or third grade were you really all caught up on the latest music and fashion, or did you listen to what your parents had on the radio in the car and wear what your parents bought for you because it was on sale?
so here is what i think, because i know you all care, if you didn't make it to high school/teenage years in the decade in question, you are not a product of that decade. when the late nineties/early noughties nostalgia pops up, i'll be back for that maybe.
-
So I was 2 - 12 years old in the nineties, and all I remember about that decade that might be considered somewhat representative for it later on (besides the toys and games) is this:
(http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e263/blooper663/spice-girls.gif)
Fuck the flanel, I didn't know what grunge was until it was over.
-
I cannot hear you, I am listening to "This is my truth, tell me yours" on my personal cassette walkman because I am 10 and THERE'S A BLAAAACK DOG ON MY SHOOOOUOOOUUUULLDER, LICKING MY NEEEECK AND PRETENDING TO BEEEE MYYYY FRIIIIEND...
-
I can't say I really feel all that much nostalgia for the 90s even though I was a teenager during most of them. I wasn't really in to popular music besides the adolescent grungy period mentioned previously, and I never got in to popular fashion at all. If I wasn't in to it then, why would I be in to it now?
-
I was born in '89 so I only barely remember most of the '90s. But man the '90s were awesome. Red Ranger was totally the coolest ever.
-
I cannot hear you, I am listening to "This is my truth, tell me yours" on my personal cassette walkman because I am 10 and THERE'S A BLAAAACK DOG ON MY SHOOOOUOOOUUUULLDER, LICKING MY NEEEECK AND PRETENDING TO BEEEE MYYYY FRIIIIEND...
Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna really
really really wanna zigazig ha!
-
...
Christ, what have I done.

dear kris,
i only just now realized that your avatar is not a mangled duck head.

-
Hay guys, I need somebody to confort me, the totally coolest dude in the world KILLED HIMSELF!
WHAT THE FUCK? WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO US? WE NEED YOU! HOW WILL THE WORLD CONTINUE WITHOUT NIRVANA?
Oddly enough, it worked out quite well.
-
This is kind of a terrible list thread of what I imagine people 20 years from now will jokingly talk about the 90s being popular for. Some of the posters in this thread had not entered the first grade by the time 2000 came.
Are there really anyone in the forums born in 94? That makes me feel old, and I can't even buy beer without lying.
Bah, the nineties? I would just be making custom maps on Age of Empires 1 again and again and again, never really playing them, just making utopia. For hundreds of hours. I wonder how the hell that has affected me.
-

Dear yelley,
Ahaha, thanks for making me laugh.

so here is what i think, because i know you all care, if you didn't make it to high school/teenage years in the decade in question, you are not a product of that decade. when the late nineties/early noughties nostalgia pops up, i'll be back for that maybe.
I dunno, I mean I was 1-11 during the 90's, but I remember quite about about it..mostly the cartoons, toys, and pop music. When I read about the 90's, it's not like I'm reading about the 60's or even the 80's as some past time. It's the decade I was raised and I was formed by the popular culture of the era. I think that makes me a "product" of the 90's.
-
Oh shit, Pope John XV just died.
I hope he doesn't get replaced with a filthy German.
(Spoiler alert: He does.)
-
Music I actually listened to in the 90s
1990-1998 or so- whatever the radio was put on, usually the hip-hop station
1999-2000: The Backstreet Boys
I was so unhip.
-
My nineties was hellsof weird but even I remember the Spice Girls.
We just had an Ofsted inspection and the headteacher ripped up a boy's Pokemon cards! She is so mean!
(I was nine when the 90s ended, I think, or ten? How long is a decade? (I know how long a decade is.))
-
My musical tastes in the ninties
1991-1997 - Barney the Dinosaur and other theme songs for childrens shows.
1997-2000 - The theme songs to childrens shows like Arthur. And backstreet boys cause they were that cool when you were 9 years old.
-
Fuck you all, I'm gonna go play some fucking Ocarina of Time. For days
Wait what I kind of do this like a lot.
-
Like over the summer I just played Star Fox 64 every day for two weeks. It got sort of boring.
-
Guys, I am almost 10 years old, and I have killed Robo-Hitler. Oh, Wolfenstein, how I loved thee.
-
Okay guys, the question to settle everything in the world once in for all-
Backstreet Boys or N*Sync?
Personally, if you think that N*Sync is rad, you also think Hitler is rad.
-
I remember I used to write "*NSync sucks" lots of places, because the Backstreet Boys were, of course, the bestest ever.
-
Yeah, but as far as Grunge was founded as an opposition to the rock mainstream
I think the more appropriate phrase would be "as an alternative to.." because 'grunge' was a marketing ploy which existed solely to sell records.
THIS. Like with any music scene, the whole thing was an organic process that became categorized after the fact. It wasn't some organized attempt to shit on earlier music like some punk artists did. I mean, hell, the guys from Pearl Jam pretty much openly jerk off to Neil Young on stage. Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains is one of the few grunge artists who gets even a shred of respect from the metal community, although it's more for his respect and deference to the genre than for his contributions. That said, songs like We Die Young (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCdx--nsyjc) have as much in common with Pantera & Black Sabbath dirges as they do with anything Cobain did. Soundgarden was basically noise rock crossed with Led Zeppelin. Frankly, if there was any contempt for the rock scene, it seemed aimed at the lyrical content and lunkheaded macho idiocy espoused by groups like Motley Crue, not at rock or even metal in general.
So yeah, I'd say "grunge" lacks legs, but only because it's a narrow, artificial label that segregates grunge from the wider angry-young-men-with-guitars style of music for no good reason.
P.S.
I left out talk of Nirvana because Kurt Cobain was a miserable young man strung out on heroin and dumb enough to marry Courtney Love. While he showed contempt for his contemporaries on several occasions, I don't really think he had any real plans in mind when he first picked up a guitar. Even if he did, it's rather a stretch to apply his mindset to all the other bands that grew out of the same scene.
-
Yeah, but my point still stands (in fact, I think it's enhanced). Whether originally setting out to reform the mainstream of rock, or simply offer an alternative, the so called "Grunge" movement did change the mainstream. The sort of "fun" rock that was dominant on 80s rock-radio vanished, and was replaced by more angry music. If you turn on a mainstream contemporary rock station today, it's almost all angry-young-men now. So any kind of retro-movement towards "grunge," whatever you think of that title, wouldn't fly right now because that label was only relevant as a counter point to things like Motley Crew.
-
See, and I'm more or less arguing that "grunge" isn't as out of fashion as people think it is to begin with. It's just that "grunge" is such a stupidly and narrowly defined artificial term that the music isn't allowed to vary much before it gets marketed as something different. For example, apparently Tool is alt-rock. I've never really heard anyone refer to them as a grunge band, or even bother to acknowledge their grunge-like qualities despite the fact that they were grunge contemporaries who openly acknowledged having a huge debt to the Melvins on their 1992 EP, Opiate. I mean, honestly, what makes the song Opiate (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6g2VCpyEH9I) all that much different from the "grunge" of the day? Yet despite this any changes they made in their sound is never construed as growth within the grunge genre.
I guess what I'm trying to say here is that labeling music is a stupid habit that should be killed with fire.
-
Man guys have you heard of that new band called Matchbox Twenty?
-
Sorry, I'll talk to you guys later, I'm busy browsing the Internet for the first time on my WebTV. Oh, sweet, Final Fantasy VII MIDIs! ( http://www.midishack.net/ffmidi.htm )
Also, Freakazoid and Animaniacs. :-D The 90s were an excellent era for cartoons and I would take them over every cartoon on TV today.
-
Freakazoid was so fucking good.
-
I don't understand how you people are hacking into my favourite BBS but if you're going to shit is up like this could you at least stop putting pictures next to your name every time you talk? I still have a 14.4k modem (saving for a 28.8k, maybe next month!)
-
Hey guys I just got a sweet hypercolour (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercolor) t-shirt. It shows off my sweat patches in vivid colour!
(Apparently people are trying to bring this trend back. What the fuck. Some things should remain dead and buried.)
-
(some people are trying to bring the perm back, shows something about the state of play in our current decade that we can only look on the past 40 years or so and steal stuff from there)
Boo, Diana is dead and I wanted to watch my childrens TV programs in the morning.
-
Guys do you like my rad new haircut? It is called a flat-top and it is what all the cool dudes in America are getting. I saw it in a C&C Music Factory video clip and knew I had to get it done.
-
I see your flat-top, and raise you an undercut and a pair of genuine imitation reebok pumps that don't actually inflate.
-
whatever, dude it's all about velcro shoes, lime green corduroy pants, a dinosaur t-shirt, and mickey mouse suspenders (this is my favorite outfit).
also; squinting is awesome and makes you look cool because my horrific vision problems have not been diagnosed yet.
-
Oh man Pavement broke up.
Fuck this decade, guys.
-
Dude I thought it would go without saying that I left my rat's tail intact.
-
Man Weird Al's music is so freaking rad they should make a monument.
-
Like, a giant stone pillar that says "NEVER FORGET" so the atrocities of the past are never repeated.
-
Oh man, guys, I just bought this awesome new cd!
(http://www.mp3lyrics.org/a/aqua/aqua_1.Jpg)
Also, we just got this computer and it has a 4 gig hard drive. We'll never fill that!
(I used to have a hypercolour shirt, but it was for the British Red Nose day, and it had a tomato which turned yellow. After a while it just stayed yellow. It was for a good cause, though, so that makes it ok, right?)
-
you, my dear, are not old as hell.
Doesn't change the fact that I look at the children today and think "Damn.. it feels like it was just a few weeks ago I was doing that."
Then I realize, 15 years ago I was. Then I think..where in the hell did those 15 years go?
I may not actually be old, but I sure as hell feel it.
-
Hey dicks, I just saw The Wiggles live. Man, the yellow one is sooooo cool.

I get the green light boost and ram you so hard you lose one balloon.
-
Man, I wish I had a Nintendo 64, but we've already got a SNES, so we're not allowed one. I will just have to play the various Mario Bros. games on it instead.

Nintendo 64
Y2K
It's 11:45 p.m. on December 31st, 1999, and I'm in my brother's room with about ten friends, eating bag after bag of Millennium Edition M&Ms, drinking ourselves sick on Martinelli's Sparkling Cider, and we've just set up a Super Smash Bros. battle in which four level-nine computer players battle as Samus, maximum stock. Who will win?
This is going to be epic.
-
If it's 1999, does that mean this thread's going to end soon?
-
hey guys my mom got some gpow from some dupers on bnet you guys want some?
-
You guys are such gayphers. By the way did anyone watch Saved By The Bell? Slater is DA MAN!
-
no man I was too busy watching fresh prince of bel air
-
Slater is DA MAN!
No one has ever had this opinion, even in the 90s.
-
no man I was too busy watching fresh prince of bel air
The correct answer is "I was too busy watching Parker Lewis Can't Lose."
-
I never watched Parker Lewis Can't Lose. Maybe I can search for a fan-page on Lycos that'll be able to catch me up.
-
HAHAHAHA oh god lycos.
-
I heard of a new thing called Google but have you seen it? The home page looks so amateurish. It'll never take off.
-
Altavista is much better than this Google thing, anyway. If that doesn't work there is always Dogpile.
-
(or webwombat)
-
Aw yee-ah Webwombat was my favourite when I was first internettin'.

I am watching MST3K over here. I don't understand it, being very little, but I am laughing at the robots.

Are there Bill Clinton jokes in this thread?
-
OS/2 FTW - it's way ahead of crappy Windows in the Internet stakes. [The OS/2 server I left running at my last company was only shut down in 2008, probably because they didn't know how...]
In other news, I got divorced (oddly, this seemed to be a result of recovering from cancer) and then remarried (marriage gets to be a comfortable state of being after a couple of decades, you know).
-
(this is why I don't intend to get married)
Also, Who wants to watch fireman sam!
-
HOLY SHIT GUYS SIMCITY 2000 IS SO COOOOOL OMG
Not as cool as FALLOUT!!! Man, 10 years from now, we're going to look back on Fallout and say "this game was so linear"!
(Oh the irony, it hurts so much.

Hey, you guys who used Netscape? That's how old you are.
Dude I used Netscape.

I am going to be twenty in less than a week, THANK YOU ALL FOR MAKING ME FEEL DECREPIT.
I'm going to go and watch some GOOD Disney movies, listen to some Nsync, [LANCE IS SO HOT AND WE'RE GONNA GET MARRIED SOMEDAY], and then I'm going to play The Sims until my eyes start to bleed.
-
Spoilers: he came out of the closet.
No, seriously.
-
I...I don't believe you...
Update 2007: My mom bought me the People Magazine with the 'breaking article' and laughed as she handed it to me.

Oh, boy!
Mom and pops just got me Super Mario 64!
Up your nose with a rubber hose. I'm still playing Phantasy Star on Sega Genesis.

Hey guys, have you read this cool series called animorphs? They are going to make a TV series of it, but I don't get cable, so I can't watch it (true to this day), I'll try to get the VHS at blockbuster when it comes out.
I'm not sure I get what is defined as "__ nostalgia", is it dressing in a similar way, listening to the music, or is it actually wishing you lived in that time? That just seems odd to me.

Check out my sick computer setup

I think I'll play some Leisure Suit Larry and hope my parents don't catch me, and then maybe go watch some Reboot.
-
Gonna go play some Lara Croft, that game is so sick and/or rad
-
OMG, Tomb Raider, YES! I love that game, it's so much fun running around the mansion annoying the butler.
You guys, who else likes Nano pets?

Oddly enough, this forum is the first place I have ever heard people consistently call things rad.
-
Furbies are so fucking rad, I want one so much, but you can't find them ANYWHERE : (

I am going to be twenty in less than a week, THANK YOU ALL FOR MAKING ME FEEL DECREPIT.
I'm going to go and watch some GOOD Disney movies, listen to some Nsync, [LANCE IS SO HOT AND WE'RE GONNA GET MARRIED SOMEDAY], and then I'm going to play The Sims until my eyes start to bleed.
The Sims? What is The Sims?
(The Sims didn't come out until 2000.)
:( Seriously?
Man, I guess that makes sense when I do the math.
Still makes me feel old that The Sims 3 is coming out in like, three weeks or something.

Being 20 isn't even close to being almost old. You are in the prime of your youth.

Wow, 16 weeks for Bryan Adams? I had no idea the UK had such a stiffy going for Everything I Do, even if it was a monster hit in other countries as well.
-
The main reason people loved "Everything I Do" was because it was the song from the film Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. It's hard to fathom these days just how popular that film was back in 1991. Especially the arrow-cam shot: folks went wild for that bit.

Fuck Furbies, the teletubbies are where it's at.

Actually, I saw that movie in the theater with my grandfather. It was the Best Thing. The trip I mean, not the movie; I was 9 years old, plus nobody else was in the theater so I could leave my seat whenever I wanted. I also found a $20 bill on the floor which I used to buy icecream and a ninja turtle. Best. Trip. Ever.

First thing I plan to do is got on this eBay thing and buy extinct beanie babies.

Man beany babies aren't extinct. You're nuts! K-Mart has a ton of them.

HALFWAY TO FORTY!
ahaha, I know, I know, I'm making a huge deal out of it.
I was an even bigger baby when I turned nineteen.
Somehow being able to drink legally [I'm in Can, not the US], made it all better. :-)

I'm too young to play Killer Instinct, but that doesn't stop me from watching while my older cousin plays.
In other news, we just got Final Fantasy VII, but all I really wanted was Final Fantasy VI for my SNES.
