Life Peaked in the 90's...

[AlpineX]

There was awesome video game technology like the PlayStation or the Nintendo 64. Had Computers and going on the internet was awesome but there was no disgusting social media only chat rooms and message boards.
Computer games were also awesome in the 90's. We had cell phones so we could always call a friend but no smart phones so we weren't glued to them 24/7.

If you wanted a movie you had to go out and physically rent one, if you wanted music you had to go to a record store and browse the CD's.

If you wanted to hook up with a girl you had to physically talk to one or meet them at the club or a bar.

Televison was awesome for adult or kids with shows like seinfeld, X-Files then you had Nickelodeon at it's peak.

You had over the top testosterone action movies that were not worried about being PC.

The economy was great and gas was cheap. I could get a half a tank for $5.

Music was fuking amazing Nirvana, Sound Garden, Alice In Chains, Smashing Pumpkins etc...

had the Goat basketball shoes of all time people to this day still freak out over Jordan 11's.


The world was just more chill.

Agreed.

Social media legit ruined the world.

Everything in life is a giant pissing contest because of it.

[Budjola]

[eod8989]

Ban social media and we can return to that lifestyle. It has literally ruined everything srs.

Kids used to go outside. Now 3/10s are selling their bathwater to basement dwelling miscers in between school shootings. Let that sink in

[BigB2019]

For how much less content, less advanced, and how much slower the internet was back then I sure enjoyed it more than I do now. Now there's so much more you can do with computers, and can bring up a web page in less than a second rather than minutes and I'm so bored that I don't know what to do. Then again, I could just be getting old too and need to find new things to excite me.

Tbh I’m jealous of the little kids of today.

Brb amazing cameras in smart phones to film all the skateboard related shenanigans of our youth.

[Avalanche3319]

Fully agree. Remember my grandma letting me stay up late enough to watch x-files and feeling special for that.

Aw mane. Wish it still had mine. At one point I had all the originals.

[Slaughterm]

Good times for sure.

9/11 ruined society. That was the moment everything flipped and everyone started walking on their toes and looking behind their backs.

Also, life was great before the ******** and the iPhone. 2007 everything changed. All the normies got access to the internet and turned everything into a SJW field day. Fking sucks

This. It ruined Canada at the same time.

Watching Jurassic Park in theatres was the ultimate 90s moment.

My folks built a brand new 4 bedroom house in the city for $189k. It now costs $850k.
I remember my old man complaining about paying $300/mo for 0 deductible health insurance for a family of 6. Now I pay $650 just for me and have a $5500 deductible.
A 4 year degree at a state school was EXPENSIVE, my cousin took 5 years and racked up almost $30k of debt!
Most people were working 40 hours/week and most of my friends had stay at home moms


Here we are 20 years later and wages are the same.

x2 all soyboys were still in the closet

[AlpineX]

social media has ****ed life

[leafs43]

Prime Britney Spears too.


Every man in the world would have given his left nut for her virginity.

[ErnieMccracken]

It's largely economic, too. Almost all economic growth in the past 2 decades has gone to the rich. Everyone else gets stuck with the same wage and the cost of living has skyrocketed.

[GaryCarnivals]

Social media/internet addiction/the need for instant self-gratification ruined the world.

Nothing is sacred anymore, nothing can be serious. Everything is a joke and a meme.
