Hot Topic’s 1st store, 1989:  Hot Topic circa 1996:  I got both of the pictures from the 25th anniversary website, which is one hell of a time capsule.

Eugh, the Mortal Kombat style of fighter animation always gave me a way stronger uncanny valley reaction than cgi ever could. Especially those spasming background characters

I remember my sister was literally too scared to go into a Hot Topic and everybody in town called it Hot Toxic because the P on the sign looked like an X. It looks like they have a boring modern logo these days.

The crystal pepsi and charmander card together is anachronistic. Pretty sure that's the 10 million dollar reworked Pepsi logo on the Crystal bottle, too. Looks like a FOX home video label for the tape??

It looks like they have a boring modern logo these days. They also stopped making fun of mainstream pop culture and are now the One Stop Tumblr Fandom Shop. I still shop there for jeans occasionally because they are the last store on earth that sells women's jeans that aren't cut on the assumption that you have an enormous rear end.

Nutsngum posted:Thats impressively 90s for a show that started in 1987. True, but that style of new age music is very 90s, mostly because it was just continuing from the 80s. Though this made me realize, Star Trek was the dominant nerd thing in the 90s. It was never more popular, why those running it these days keep trying to recapture it.

Q- Is this a screensaver? No. This is a rocket-fire digital kaleidoscope that you direct with your voice, your keyboard or your stereo. You can control every aspect of this program, from the soundtrack to the sound effects, from the kaleidoscopic patterns to the color. You can even control subtle differences like line weight and symmetry levels. No, this isn't a screensaver; it's a visual jam...a lush, rich audio landscape. Q- What is the point of this product? It's pure fun. It's about pleasure and the simple joy of creating beautiful images. We developed The Groove Thing to be used alone, with a good friend or in a much larger group of people. The Groove Thing. There are no enemies to kill. No points to score. No aliens to destroy. There is nothing to conquer. Let's call it evolution. http://bigtop1996.com/groove/

Sex Hobbit posted:One Stop Tumblr Fandom Shop.  Spencer's gifts was the one taking jabs at pop culture. Hot Topic was usually the only one on the pop culture pulse at the time. It's where pre-teen me got my wwf and NWO shirts from, and where teenage me got my nintendo clothing and dragonball z shirts from. It's always been there, but it's a lot of things that teens/early college kids these days like.

You're either younger than me or went to one that was wildly different from my local one. The one I shopped at in the late 90s/early 00s didn't sell anything like that. The closest it got to pop culture was Invader Zim, Tim Burton stuff and Happy Tree Friends. They 100% didn't have any anime stuff; that was the height of my DBZ/Gundam Wing phase so I would definitely remember that.
