Had it not been for the WB content of the mid-late 90s, and maybe early 90s Disney and Gargoyles, 90s animation would be a sort of gray fog of who gives a poo poo.

At least in another year anime will flop in the US with Sailor Moon and Dragon Ball getting syndicated releases, but become pop culture mainstays with cable revivals a few years later.

Outside of The Lion King and The Simpsons, 90s animation is all forgettable trash. And even The Lion King was plagiarised garbage.

I still remember it like yesterday though. My friend Ryan telling me "Did you hear the news? Kurt Cobain died!" To which I replied, "Who?" "Kurt Cobain! The lead singer from Nirvana!" Not a clue. We were 8 years old. Ryan was my grade 3 friend. He introduced me to the concept of "cum" by taking me upstairs to his bedroom where he had a Macintosh Plus that we could draw pictures on, and when we were done with that, he snuck into his dad's room and came back with a stack of nudie mags. Reminder, we are both 8 years old. He could do whatever he wanted at his house because both of his parents were severely physically and/or mentally handicapped, and were usually constrained to the lower portion of the house in their wheelchairs, from which vantage point his dad would scream "RYYYAAANN!!!" whenever he wanted Ryan to stop loving around, which Ryan was adept at. But because he knew he had free reign to do whatever he wanted, this meant he obviously knew where his dad's porno mags were. So, to ingratiate me as a new friend, he left the room we were in, grabbed a stack of Hustlers from the adjacent room, and after showing me what a centrefold was, he told me to reach into a small plastic tube with my index finger. It was slimey. I still remember the look on his face as he laughed at making me touch "cum," which I was completely clueless about. But to be completely honest, looking back on it and reminding myself that we were both 8, I'm fairly certain that he was either an idiot, or he was pulling my leg / trying to impress me, and that it was either water, sweat, or, most likely, piss. To make a long story short, we weren't friends for much longer after that. Being at his house was loving weird. And I use the term "house" loosely; it was low income housing. Think of a small neighbourhood consisting of a dozen quadplexes in a row. That's the only memory I have from 1994 that I can pin down to that year with absolute certainty.

Was this mentioned yet? Pulp Fiction is one of the best movies ever and I will fight you on this (and you will probably win because I don't have a good eloquent substantive argument other than "I like the way the stories weave together and the soundtrack is great.")

Also: that thing about the needle needing to pierce the breastbone and hit the heart, etc etc; that's not really how it works at all and I will allow you the joy of googling to find out why. Hell of a scene, though.

I actually got high and watched pulp fiction a week or so ago. I never did that in 1994, but probably did multiple times in 1995, 96, 97, 98, 99, 2000, 01, 02, 03 and then not again (got high+ watch PF) until last week.

Just thought I'd let you goons know I got high.

I was 8 in '94, got allowed to watch TV, and agree with this sentiment. Also, most of the Liquid Television stuff was firmly made in the '90s.

'94 was also when I started watching USA Up All Night with Gilbert Gottfried and Rhonda Shear.

in 1994 i went to my first concert, KMFDM at the Edge in Palo Alto CA. and then later that same year my first big arena show, Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson at the San Jose Event Center. i had never heard of Marilyn Manson before the show and had no idea what to expect. also The Crow came out that year and half the people at that show were in the Crow makeup.

In 1994 we lived in Palo Alto but I was too young for concerts. Just down the street from that nightclub was Printers Inc where my dad took my sister and I to buy all our comic books. I probably bought every Calvin and Hobbes book I own from there.

I also learned about hide’n seek in 1994. I was at a French school so we called it cache-cache and played it everyday for months.

Also more of a bummer was my best friend moving to Maine, c’est la vie I guess when your dad invents the Ethernet then gets forced out of 3COM

Metal being increasingly less popular in the mid-90s is what got me into Ultraviolence and probably permanently shifted me towards electronic music for every purpose, rather than just for smooth/cool/depressing purposes


This Ultraviolence?

I was interning at the Earache NYC office when that came out in 94, I still have a couple copies of the Lenny Dee mix white label 12”. Yeah I had gone from metal/punk/hardcore and started getting into lots of crazy underground electronic music, it was a great time for that.

In the year 1994, a comet hurtles between Earth and the moon. The moon is destroyed, and the Earth loses its ozone layer--causing the entire planet to be laid waste. Centuries later, Earth has become "a world of savagery, super-science, and sorcery," inhabited by various evildoers, scavengers, and magicians. Thundarr, a warrior who wields a powerful sword, is joined by his friends Ookla the Mok and Princess Ariel as they make their way through this strange world.

magazines are made by companies with a staff of writers and photographers and access to a printing press and distribution system

zines are made by some random passionate person and a few of their friends using the xerox machine at their dayjob when no one is looking and distributed by hand to select local record stores or individually snail mailed to fellow weirdos who subscribe, usually other zine enthusiasts or prisoners

some of them were devoted to specific topics/formats like music or fiction or politics etc and some of them were just kind of random stuff about people's lives, the kind of stuff that would later show up in blogs except the level of effort required to actually print up and mail stuff out resulted in a somewhat higher quality level of content imo
