    Seriously, nothing's worse than people about my age waxing nostalgic. It's really depressing.
    Like now everybody acts like they love the Backstreet Boys. Nothing wrong with a little BSB but they were pretty much the 1D of their day. It's just nostalgia goggles/vintage value/whatever the fuck you wanna call it.

    it seems like some of the most fervent 90s nostalgists are the kind of people who are so young they really can't even remember 90s properly

    like my age or even younger, i was born in 92 and don't remember enough for it to allow more than the most shallow and vague nostalgy

    The 90s won, but by your list "winning" doesn't mean much.

    To be fair, 1D > BSB because 1D has way more homoerotic subtext.
    I'd also say RVIVR > Latterman.


    That said 90s Green Day > 00s Green Day.

    Who the fuck would pretend to love the Backstreet Boys? They're the poster child for terrible 90's boy band pop.



    Musically speaking both the 90's and the 00's were pretty great and pretty awful depending on where you look.

    what i miss about the nineties was playing outside all summer, no internet, no cell phones. if i wanted connection, i went out with my siblings all day. i think more than anything, i miss being too young to pay attention to or care about politics or what's going on in the world. ignorance was bliss, b96 on the radio, open hydrants in the summer, my dad hadn't left yet(pre '94), the worst thing in the world was homework(aside from the regular ass whoopin). it had it ups and down, my family was homeless for a number of years too... maybe that had something to do with how i turned out

    Have you heard "The Joy?" They did a song remixed to "The Makings of You" by Curtis Mayfield. Pretty good song.

Yeah, granted, i was all but 5 when my favorite artists ws bein played LIVE-but thank God for research and an older brother whos a dick but has excellent taste in music-i found my preference in sound n i noticed that certain vibe i ws lookn for happened to have DIED once tha millenium hit. NOW-its bout lasers and peewpeews all these synthetic noises, autotune lil wayne shit or sum ridiculous visuals to distract us from tha reality of tha situation. PRODUCTION may have got better-we got more bells n whistles now. I'm talkn bout makn nothin from sumn. thas wha i miss. none of this lady gag bullshit sum rihanna sticks n stones may break my bones buh chains n whips excite me ? cmannnnn But forsure man, i feel u, i js love 90's music cuhs it's become tha new thing these days, ykno ? got nothn ta do wit my own personal preference. oh yeah n my favorite movies are requiem for a dream, nightmare before christmas, a clockwork orange..i also hate obama but voted for him and i also drive a prius, tryna keep shit green. are u vegetarian too? Shit, am i falln into another stereotype again? Hahha anyways, i appreciate ur opinion, i like wen ppl get passionate. Js try not to let tha stupidity bother u..n remember not everybody is stupid.

    The 90s gave us Nirvana.

    I fucking HATE Nirvana.




    That being said, though, there are some things about the 90s that I miss. Video games were pretty awesome back then, even though they didn't have the cutting edge graphics of today. You had games like Earthbound, and Final Fantasy III, and John Romero was still considered a gaming genius.

    The 1990s seem so long ago nowadays. I know it's been 13 years since they ended, but it feels a lot longer. Being born in 1986, some of my earliest memories are from the start of that decade, and I think if you showed a ten year old me things from 2013, he would be amazed. My Xbox 360 is a million times more powerful than the Commodore 64 we had. I remember our first family computer in late 1997 as well.

    personally i prefer oldies/dustys, 60's reggae/ska, 70's punk/hardcore, 80's punk/hardcore/rock. some of today's music is very catchy, but most seems to cannibalize music from the past. for me, myself, i do not consider someone "music" if they cannot sing, compose, write, play an instrument... but that's just me
