My parents only allowed "educational" games so this was the 90s for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HfW38RRjbU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HAxdTacsgQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wei0C21LBNM I didn't even realize they were trying to teach me things because, lets be honest here, those were fun as gently caress.

That (along with Anne Rice's vampire books) directly influenced this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPhIEG3JYtg (Disclaimer: I actually love this series, even though it is a twice-as-campy Canadian version of Angel with a fraction of the budget.)

Like "Heavy Metal Parking Lot" before it, "Rave Parking Lot" captures part of the 90's really well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7qGzoGKEB4 FANTAZIA LITTLECOTE HOUSE NEW YEARS DAY 1993

His swearing-in ceremony was presided over by Ruth Bader Ginsburg. I choose to believe this happened because she loved the same terrible shows that I did while I was in high school.

OK, in 1994 I was in grad school and working full time at an IT job. We were hip to the internet, which hadn't quite reached the Normals yet. Wired Magazine was our bible, and we anxiously awaited every issue. Then, this: Here come the Zippies! (2.05) In May of 1994, Wired announced that a confab of techno-pagens at the Grand Canyon in August would spark a cultural wildfire that could change America forever. It was the next Woodstock, the inauguration of a millennial culture. Yup, that's some purestrain 90s, in both thought and appearance, right there. Feel free to chime in with your favorite Wired memories, like Get Thee To The Internet, and The Long Boom.

Sorry, but this is the most 90s video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUtnwcv-quE The spiky hair, the bleached tips, the wifebeater and white sneakers, the walking-on-the-wall special effects in a tiny room, the fake-reggae MC in a fedora...it's just too perfect. Credit where credit is due to "The Way" and "Steal My Sunshine," though.

God, Rock was lovely then. My teenage daughter goofs on me about 'dad rock' because I still listen to 80s metal, this reminds me of why.

To me, this is the most 90's song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyjTrwOMSO4 On radios, TV, movies, everywhere in the 90's. My sister was a fan, anytime we drove anywhere this would inevitably be played.

I saw them in a few store windows around Sydney last summer, they were apparently the big thing at the time. Not sure why because I never saw anybody actually wearing them outside the stores.

Yes, a cable TV channel filled (during daytime hours) with crappy low-budget children's programming designed to sell products to a target demographic consisting of women aged 18-35 who have children is literally the 1990's incarnate. How could we have forgotten about it? Oh, because we were all too busy staring at this:

Pretty Lady Blob posted:90s tech ads. As a kid/teen i would paste ads and graphics from games on my wall. I would stare in disbelief at Aliens Vs Predator and desperately wanted an Atari Jaguar. My alcohol diluted memories are of the console being prohibitively expensive back in the day. But that price is so low! I know it cost me a lot more that that to buy the Jaguar as an adult wanting nostalgia and promptly putting it in a box with a Pippen never to be played again.

And remember, this is the same decade that gave Brian Bosworth a movie for having some stripes shaved into the side of his mullet. The bar was pretty low.
