    For Wooley, the '90s were when the incandescent light bulb and the schrader valve began transforming lives.

    Yeah, absolutely. I care what they think about my favorite music as much as they care about what I think about theirs. It's always been like this.

    But I can't deny that sometimes, just like putting on some really old shoes perfectly molded to your feet or old jeans with wear marks made by years of wearing them, or eating some comfort food, listening to the music that blew my mind the first time I heard it in high school makes me feel happy.

    Edit to add: There's some amazing new music. What comes to mind when thinking of modern music that I dislike is reggaeton. It's hugely popular, but to me it sounds very monotonous, I can listen to a song or two and I get tired of it.

    Never mind that half the shit these guys are going on about started in the 80s. Peak GnR and Metallica? Appetite for Destruction came out in 1987 and Master of Puppets was 1986. That was their peak. Countless examples in this thrad along with all kinds of horrible music mentioned. Every decade has great music, it’s just not spoon fed to you.

    Thanks. It was all of us. Did you ever attend any of the gatherings? We made t-shirts and shit. I remember telling Trey what we were doing, and he was like, "internet?, cool".

    I drank many beers with Danny on a shin deep muddy night before the opening at Targhee Bluegrass wearing all my moto gear. I had just ripped up from CO and was so wet and coated in mud he took kindness and bought all my beers/calories. Solid dude and one of my favorites of all times.

    Mushrooms and X files for me and my (5 hot women) housemates in the communal room with a $9 large 1 topping pizza. Every week. I kept asking them to keep their toys off the living room table, but gave up because at least 2 of them were cycling together at any one time. My friend Erica had a vagina shaped dream catcher above her bed that was like 6' long. She ended up getting a PhD in clinical psych and makes bank in NC as a hardened NYC girl.

    Loved X-Files, Beavis and Butthead (most of Adult Swim) sports stuff. Never really got in to Friends, Seinfeld, ER, NYPD Blue, etc in the 90s. I was working in retail management and often at work on weeknights. I did watch the last couple seasons of ER and Friends. Wife liked those shows when we started dating and I was retired from fucking retail hell..

    90's appreciation thrad

    This thread is fantastic. 90’s crushed it, but like someone said, I was young ( except for you old or super young fucks ) the appreciation is definitely age related. But what a time to go from high school to college, explore, figure shit out, see amazing music and bands that haven’t blown up yet ( I wonder how many of us have unknowingly shared joints at shows), meet girls, party, try lots of different drugs, figure out what booze/beer you liked and your limits, just how to be yourself really. all of it. So good

    And it wasn't just beep beep beep with a callback number. Folks had a whole different alphanumeric 9 digit language while using them.. Like if it was your wife and important it just said 911 911 911 or something like that..
    Ha! All our parents in town gave their kids pagers so they could “keep tabs on them”. That failed spectacularly, and we just used them as a way to talk to each other without blowing up your friends’ home landlines.

    Ah, the old Nokia brick. That thing was indestructible.

    I was probably the first of my friends to have a cell phone in ‘95-96 because the aforementioned pager system failed. And my Dad had a bunch of Motorola Star-Tacs at his disposal. At first I thought it was so cool, little did I know I’d one day come to despise the electronic leashes.

    Pagers were god's way of telling you where to get your drugs from.

    In the 90s, our girls rocked the super low-rise jeans, thong undies, and midriffs. Now the young girls wear freaking mom jeans. 90s > 2020s

    Bummer you quit music like 40 years ago cuz you've missed out on a LOT of really great stuff my man.

    As far as 'kids and their crazy music these days,' there actually is a ton of great stuff still coming out these days. Once we got past the worst of freaking dubstep and mumble rap, we've turned a corner and things are doing a bit better IMO. Haha. Also been seeing a serious resurgence of teens I know actually really getting into 70s-90s music. Big time. Makes me happy to see that. Not all hope is lost after all! ^_^

    Haha. Totally. That said, my wife recently unburied her old low rise jeans from HS (she totally still fits in them!) and she's been rocking them lately. "Schwing!!!" (Sorry. No pics, fellas)

    Yeah. Those are still WAY better than the mom jeans trend*. Even if worn by an actual mom.

    *Disclaimer: must actually have tight, good body to pull off. Thus why they don't have mass appeal to all the young chubsters of today.

    And speaking of schwing, let us not forget the wonderful era that was the 90s SNL cast and all the ensuing comedies. Dana Carvey, Mike Meyers, Chris Farley, David Spade, Will Ferrel, Chris Kattsn, Molly Shannon, Phil Hartman, Adam Sandler, Tim Meadows, Jon Lovitz, Norm Macdonald, Chris Rock, Tracy Morgan, Jimmy Fallon, Cheri Oteri, Kevin Nealon, Al Franken, Dennis Miller, Jim Breuer, the list goes on and on and on...
