SUCK A MALE CAMEL'S DICK WITH MIRACLE WHIP!!
Post your 90s bangers!
I don't just mean a bunch of 90s songs, I mean post the songs that YOU used to bang in the 90s. You're out cruising with your friends, trying to pick up girls, or guys. Trying to see whats going on that night, or you're just up to no good.

What 90s songs were you and your friends pounding in that 600 dollar 1986 Cavalier that was more rust and less metal, but had a 1500 dollar system?

Back home for me in Niagara Falls, in the summer on a Friday or Saturday night, Clifton hill or "the hill" was the place to be if you were a teenager to early 20 something.
Up and down the hill, it was usually so busy, you'd pretty much crawl up, and down. Never getting past first gear, and probably not going more than 3 km/h for no more than 2 seconds before the car behind you saw your brake lights again, and you sat there for about 5 minutes not moving. It was a pointless waste of fuel and time, but for but for us, that was the poo poo. "Yo man I was out cruising the hill the other night and....." was how many a story started back then for me and some of my friends.

So here's a few bangers that made up the soundtracks to more than one of my summers:

Montell Jordan, This Is How We Do It.
Can't be much more descriptive than that.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hiUuL5uTKc

Lenny Kravitz, If You Can't Say No.
If you can't say no then say poo poo yeah!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAhzBVALop4

Cypress Hill, Insane In The Brain.
"Yo man its 'cyp' light that joint up"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RijB8wnJCN0

Shaggy, Boombastic
"What? didn't he hang out with scooby doo"?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6W5pq4bIzIw

Biggie, Mase, Puffy: Mo Money, Mo Problems
We were broke rear end kids, no money but somehow we still had problems.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUhRKVIjJtw

Ini Kamoze, Here Comes The Hotstepper.
None of us were hot, but we at least knew how to step.

None of these songs are typical musical choices for me, but late in elementary school (1994ish) I got into contemporary top 40 radio for roughly a year. These songs still remind me of my fifth and sixth grade years:

Another Night - Real McCoy

Shy Guy - Diana King

Sort of, I'm the mid 80s there were two characters that were hooking up Dazzler and Longshot. Dazzler got pregnant but there was a bit of outcry from fans about their waifu being a mom that they disappeared for while and when they came back Dazzler wasn't pregnant anymore and they never mentioned it again. Then like ten years ago Shatterstar and his boyfriend got unstuck in time and ran into Longshot and Dazzler as she was giving birth. They were eating a rebellion at the time so the only safe place to stash the kid was in the past with a guy that used baby Shatterstar to create Longshot.

So..um...the point of the swords is just for fighting stuff that doesn't have blood?

He had to cut people so the blood was "Oxygenated", which made it ignite, which is why he had razor-blade shoulder pads.

He's also genetically enginnered semi-half-brother to the Summerses, on his mothers side.

I googled it, he hasn't had one. But there are stories that Ryan Reynolds has been campaigning for him to be visibly bi in the next one. So maybe soon, at least on film.

He's just mostly a top, but not adverse to some vers/switch work. By the second movie he sermed to enjoy adopt as he playfully suggested to Vanessa that she put on the strap on and gently caress him in their effort to make a baby.

Giving a sword to someone who has some weird overpowered ability is the comic equivilent of when they used to make Mick Jagger hold a guitar while singing so people would stop asking what instrument he played.

Does the oxygen have to be bound to the blood to ignite? He can't ignite the oxygen in their lungs, before it reaches the blood?

This sounds like one of those weird tropes (like the family guy joke about trellises in 80s movies), but was it just my childhood, or was "losing sporting equipment on top of a roof, especially frisbees" one of those weirdly common jokes in the 90s?

The atomization of local communities and increased tendency to live in a place where you don't work gave rise to neighbors being virtual strangers and, as such, less tolerant of having people crawl on their shingles to retrieve a $5 hunk of plastic.
