Soundgarden proved their grunge supremacy with Superunknown, Alice in Chains did ok with Jar of Flies, and Pearl Jam continued to suck with Vitalogy. Not sure what Nirvana was up to that year. Also, I don't know what it was like for people who travelled to see Woodstock '94, but it absolutely sucked to actually live in Saugerties during the concert.

[/quote] I waited in line at a record store for the midnight release of Vitalogy. Yes I bought it on vinyl. I played it about 4 times because gently caress using a record player in 1994. I actually pulled it off the shelf, cleaned it up and gave it a spin only to realize they used really lovely vinyl in the pressing. No way am I pay $50 for new copy.

He read roughly a book a day, wrote novels, smoked cigarettes while staring at the ceiling, and other things that didn’t involve posting. People knew how to be bored properly in those days.

I liked going over to a friend's house and wondering if they could come out, and then finding out they could or couldn't was like a surprise. Then you go on to the next person's house. Also we could run around the woods and not worry about getting covered with fuckin ticks.

I liked buying a record that looked cool but since I had no way of hearing it in advance I’d get home and quickly find out it sucked

You'd just get up in the morning and your mom would have breakfast ready and you'd say "thanks <slur> for the breakfast, gotta go skateboard to school"

In 1994 climate change was mostly an abstract idea with seasons and weather still pretty normal. First time CO2 and global warming as a concept even registered for me was when I visited the famous Hotel Belvédère by the Rhône Glacier in the Swiss alps while on a roadtrip vacation with my folks. We recognized the place from one of the James Bond movies and stopped for an expensive lunch. At that time the glacier was still plainly visible and it was only a short hike from the hotel, but they had a photo exhibit showing how in the 19th century when the hotel was built, the glacier was an enormous mass of ice right next to it, a spectacular view evident from the old black and white images. There was a famous ice cave in the glacier that you could visit. ( By the time the hotel closed for good in 2016, the glacier had receded by hundreds of meters further up and all that was visible from the hotel was a shallow rocky puddle and a very distant grey and black mass halfway up the mountain. )

When I was a kid in the mid 80's we went to the Columbia Icefields here in Canada. There was a parking lot within a stone's throw of a glacier and I even walked on some areas of it. In the late 90's I went back and they made a makeshift parking lot a kilometer up the mountain which was close-ish to the glacier. Now the tip of the glacier is like 2 kilometers from the original parking lot and you can't physically see the tip of the glacier. What you can see when you walk a ton is just a dirty grimy ice pile on a mountain.

I was in a dark room and it reminded me of the 1st time I heard Black Sabbath. Not that they sounded the same, just that heavy, haunting sound and loud guitars.
