Indeed, it was a unique period in history when the internet was just developing, the phones were for the rich and famous, and the equivalent of social media was meeting up with your friends at the mall or the local theater. Perhaps many people long for this decade because people were free from all-consuming technology and an online networking society.

Ah, the good old days! Back when we needed a break from reality, we'd fire up the dial-up and dive into the wonders of the internet. Now? We're practically running away from our screens to hug a tree and feel human again. The irony is real! 😂🌳💻

    Step 4, the closing lines are wrong. They are diagonal. It isn't an "s" and has nothing to do with Stussy. The truth is, nobody has any idea what its origins are. There is an entire documentary about it that is fascinating.

    Love Bugs. At my former job this cute young black female semi driver had a layover of about 3 hours. I told her we have road runners here (she was TX based, I'm NM). So we spent some time watching Loony Tunes and giggled through all of it. Boss was ok with it too. FTR, I am female. Our train is the Rail Runner and when the doors close, they meep meep.

    When you really think about it, the ‘90s seem to be never-ending. Largely because the decade’s trends are always finding a way to sneak into our current lives.

    The plethora of articles naming what 1990s trends are already popular in 2024 and what will be all the rage in 2025 are just proof of that.

    For example, Sincerely Elise, an online community for women, foresees the comeback of the ‘90s grunge aesthetic next year. 

    “Oversized flannel shirts, band tees, and combat boots will once again be staples in wardrobes, effortlessly mixing comfort with rebellious flair,” it writes. “As sustainability gains traction, thrifted vintage pieces will play a pivotal role in the fashion scene, encouraging eco-friendly practices while embracing nostalgia. Layering will be key, pairing classic staples with contemporary pieces for a balance between edgy and refined.

    Back in my day, a movie would be on TV ONCE, about two years after it came out in the theaters, and then likely disappeared into the ash heap of history. A handful of movies were such classics they were shown annually (the Sound of Music, and that background video for Pink Floyd), and there were a ton of super-old movies that were such bombs that they're copyrights weren't renewed, so they were shown on Saturday afternoon by independent stations, if you had any in your city. Mostly war movies and Japanese monster movies. A handful (Godzilla, It's A Wonderful Life) became legends.

    Straight-leg jeans, baguette bags, slip dresses and mules were the ‘90s trends that people embraced this year. Quite currently, Gen Z was seen wearing bras on top of their shirt—reviving the “risqué" trend of the ‘90s.

    Yeah they were a 60s things that came back in the '90s. Awful lot of toys do that. They hit big, die away, and come back 20 to 30 years later. Yo-yos, scooters, scratch and sniff stickers, trolls, if we really wanted to we could probably make a list of 100 things... :)

    Things haven't changed much. Growing up in the '70s you'd have basically the same menu, except the cake would have come from a mix & the drinks would have been Hawaiian Punch in paper cups.

    The year before that, it was cargo pants, flared jeans, biker shorts, and overalls. And the year before that, the emphasis was on the ‘90s leather, long socks and the grunge aesthetic. And the year before that... Alright, I think you get the gist. It's quite obvious that the '90s are constantly coming back and being recycled in new ways.

    "Every generation looks back at past trends," says Dr. Renée Middlemost, senior lecturer in Communication and Media. "I believe it has something to do with the way people are watching media these days. With platforms like Netflix around, people recommend shows to each other, and there are less people seeking out new things. Our tastes seem to have narrowed. And with the sharing of videos and content, the online world has made the pop culture loops come around much more quickly than before."

    Numb the earlobe with the ice. Hold the potato behind the earlobe to keep the earlobe in place/firm. Stab earlobe violently with needle. Home-pierced ears, if your parents wouldn't let you get them pierced professionally (...or at Claire's in the mall, which was def NOT "professionally".)

    Marjorie Ingall and Mark Oppenheimer in their article Were the 90s the Best Decade Ever? The ‘Wet Hot American Summer’ Debate Continues even argues that we haven’t really evolved since the ‘90s. “Yes, there has been social and political progress since—or rather, there has been some, but we have lately slid backward in some obvious ways,” they write.

    .....It's ok, we're trained professionals!!!!!

    This begs the question, “Are we stuck in the ‘90s?” just because it’s an era that is nice to think about, before smartphones took over the world. This will probably be answered by future generations who will be able to observe our behaviors in a wider context. But it’s still interesting to think about. So what are your thoughts on this, dear Pandas? Make sure to leave your insights in the comments below!

    Polly Pocket. I got a few of these as Christmas and birthday presents until my family realized I wasn't a very girly girl and I didn't like things like that XD Though I always did love the miniaturized "houses" that were "hidden" inside the compacts/mirrors/etc. I loved that concept.

    I used one of these as an adult to legally obtain a recording of a local politician in a private meeting saying horrible things about the most vulnerable in our neighborhood. If the device is visible, you do not have to tell them you're recording. We all had to leave our phones at the door, I sat it on the table, and hit record before they came in. They looked right at it several times, and had no idea. I posted it online, and people were horrified. It didn't change the way people saw our neighborhood, and the next person was just as bad, but it was so worth it because she was god awful to us and so smug. She laughed when we talked about a hotline, to gather data, and said "they are all crack whores, let the cops just arrest them for walking down the street". She was talking about our neighbors.

    I was so jealous of my rich cousins who had Sky. We were thrilled just to finally get the 4 BBC channels. Before that it was just RTE and Network 2, but that one only worked if it wasn't too windy.

    I remember Sky a lot longer before it became digital like this. Sky used to have a button on the remote control to de-couple it from the sky-approved channels, allowing you to access hundreds of other channels from around the world.

    We have a great lolly shop (Pennyworth of lollies) about 25mins from where I live that still has a great range of boiled lollies. They charge more than I would like though. There is a lot of nostalgia for me, because it was around when I was a kid too, and there were so many 'old fashioned' lollies and we would stop there every time we went to stay at a holiday home. About 10 years later an Asian company bought it and mostly sold imported lollies, but 5-10 years later it was sold again to someone who restored it to the older style, though there are still a number of US imports, like Nerds etc.

    This only just makes it into the 90s, just like my sister (born in 99). She was more the age group to watch it than me and she liked it. She still complains because somehow her 'Bella' doll got lost/broken which devastated her.

    F$%K THOSE THINGS! My daughter had one of those things in a happy meal... That exact same one! It kept playing over and over and over again and would not stop. She came to me with it one day and a hammer begging me to make it stop. No matter how much it beat the c**p out of it, it kept going. I believe to this day a digitally beeped and slightly distorted 'Just A Little' emanates from some long abandoned landfill where it has driven off the workers there. Liberty X were in the 2000's
