I work with a guy who wears JNCO jeans every day to work. This is like, a corporate, business-casual type setting, too. I like to imagine he buys online them from that internet hellscape that was in Hackers.

You know, I couldn't remember what JNCO jeans were so I looked them up. I think I found the perfect picture of the type of person who wears them. Edit: So, thinking about it more I actually knew someone who wore them, but he was a pretty good guy who started his own shirt screen printing business in high school. Still, they look amazingly bad. The Repo Man has a new favorite as of 09:29 on Jul 10, 2017 |

Gotta love the transparent cassettes of the 90s, perfect for taping off the radio or making third-generation dubs of Nothing's Shocking and Ritual de lo habitual that you borrowed from the sketchy kid in French class

I accidentally came across the band Cool For August while floating around Fear Factory's Wiki page. Turns out one of the early bass players (Andrew Shives) jumped onboard with this post-grunge act and I could only find the one single but gently caress it was a flood of the 90's. It is basically the most 90's an also-ran band has ever sounded, embodying so many of the popular ideas into one overdramatic fiasco. It's hard to tell exactly what the singer is trying to do so he tried everything in one song between Eddie Vedder, Scott Weiland and Jeff Buckley with heroin while the band made a surprisingly melancholy tinged entry into the "Big inspirational sounding cool grungey rock song" category that "New Radicals - You Get What You Give" and "Semisonic - Closing Time" are still on one-hit-wonders compilations for... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFpkggBQpO4

Oh sure, use an intentionally ironic image from The Onion They weren't all total parachute pants like MC Hammer though, some were just kinda extra loose That's not all that crazy

I just got suddenly reminded of Cousin Skeeter, the show about a black family having a cousin who just happened to be a puppet of a black kid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_Jk3UdhD8c Wasn't there a TV movie about Skeeter going to Mars or something and finding it just populated by weird humans, or was that a fever dream I had as a kid?

Nonsense, there's not a single hatchetman in that picture and his shirt isn't even a short sleeve button up covered in blue flames! Man, the late 90s/early 2000s looked weird in retrospect.

Does anyone have that picture of the dude who looked like he was in a magazine ad or something, and he had a skateboard and wore the most stupidly baggy clothes? Like a sports jersey 3 or 4 times too large and JNCO-esque pants. I swear it was something about him being a nerd or something. I think he also looked a lot like Ryan Stiles.

So it's the 90s. Everybody still loves the Ninja Turtles, but XTREME is the new hip thing with the kids these days, "How do we cash in on this?" "…Dinosaurs!" "Yes, but it needs more than that." "Five of them! That's one more than the turtles have!" "Yes, good. But is it XTREME enough?" "We'll give them guns! Gun they won't miss with, they will actually shoot criminals! And they'll in a band!" "This can't possibly fail." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lA4o6WhJO-A "I feel we took a wrong turn somewhere." If the powerbook was so good, it would have told bike messenger that is clearly a skateboard

It's probably been posted, but if you want the best dinosaur related 90s cartoon you can't go much better than this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gy7fO2i9y94 Dinosaucers. Dinosaurs, but from space with cool spaceships and laser guns.

Yes, and some of their rare shirts, like one they made using a photo of john lennon and yoko ono naked, sold for around 7 grand. Though Nirvana's music isnt stuck in the 90's, this MTV video of college students being given an advanced copy of In Utero to listen to and give their opinions on certainly is: https://youtu.be/fiwhwy7S4qA
