What're some of the things you think we'll look back on & say- Man! That's so 90s!"?


Sidenote- If you think about it, it usually takes a new decade maybe 3 years before it gets an identity & "feel" of its own, but with 9/11, we kinda jumped head-first into the 2000s...

Seinfeld
Oklahoma City bombing
Monica Lewinsky
ER
bubblegum pop
great economy

"The Rachel"
The 1996 Olympic Bombing

TGIF- On ABC...

Some of the music heard in the 90's will most likely be remmbered

Crap. :D

Grunge- THAT was so 90s!

Designer drugs such as ecstasy:

Which can be blamed for our youth's total lapse in judgement:

Come on! When I was a kid, we had cocaine and that was it! We didn't need none of that designer crap.
:lol:


Of course, we have Pac-Man to blame for this. (Refer to my signature)

Monica: It's "Hail to the Chief" not "Inhale the Chief."

3 things that will always stand out in my mind are O.J. Simpson, Monica Lewinsky, and the rise of Rap and Hip-Hop

Apparently, everyone's forgetting the Persian Gulf War. ;) :D

Grunge music really kicked the 90's into swing, but I think there are many things that will make the 90's remembered, like the rise of the internet.

Hanson:p
the internet
the macerena (OMG I used to dance to it at skate night! :lol: )
titanic
rugrats
great sitcoms
97... my god what a great year!

Princess Diana
O.J.
First WTC bombing
Seinfeld
Chicago Bulls

Surprised it took so long for the internet to be mentioned.
Also the Anita Hill sexual harrassment trial. (why can't I remember the name of the Supreme Court judge she took to court??)

I'd agree w/ 'Titanic'.

Political correctness became the new thing in the 90s too.

Rise of hip hop in a very big way, as mentioned.

Beavis and Butthead.

The Internet went from, kindasorta to gottahava.

Some day, hopefully, we'll be able to say the garb, way baggy pants and all that, spawned by hip hop was so '90's. So far the garb is still with us. :crazy:

-Bill Clinton/ Monica Lewinsky Sex Scandal
-O.J. Simpson Trial
-Rodney King/ L.A. Riots
-TRL and the Pop Invasion of '99
-Y2K Scare
-Baywatch
-Jerry Springer Show
-Gulf War
-Internet boom
-Michael Jackson's Child Molestation Charges
-Macualay Culkin, and the Home Alone empire
-Ninja Turtles and Power Rangers invasion.
-"Titanic"
-Grunge


When people think back about the 90's, the following TV shows will always come to mind:
"Full House"
"Fresh Prince of Bel Air"
"Saved By The Bell"
"Roseanne"
"Married With Children"
"Friends"
"Seinfeld"
"Bervely Hills, 90210"

OMG, I just realized that I miss the '90s already.

Y'know, I met Clinton before and Monicagate was so huge that when I shook his hand, all I was thinking was, to put it lightly, Eww.

But I honestly think people should get over the Monica scandal. But let's save that for the political threads.
