My paisley rayon shirts are lurking in the attic, patiently waiting for the day my son finds them and they again become the hot fire that they were the first time.

It really is terrible.

I watched the 2000x cartoon though and it's pretty great. You have to get over Skeletor's voice though.

I've had a good time in each decade, but I couldn't imagine life without smartphones. I just recently went on a trip with my buddies and services like uber, yelp, Google maps, and espn made are trip a million times more fun. If I had to choose a decade I'd prefer to live in, the one I'm in is the best. I'm from a generation who dates back before the Internet and cell phones, we who know how to have fun without mordern technology which makes us appreciate it a lot more than the younger generations

So what you're saying is you've gotten old and lazy and prefer modern day conveniences as a result.

I'd love for things to revert back to they way they were in the 90s. We are too connected now. Things were simpler then and I flat out enjoyed life more.

Sadly agree. The terrorists won as far as I'm concerned since our culture has been entirely consumed by fear and we let even someone like Elmer Fudd bully us around. True free speech is dead for the most part, and only if we become a culture of hope like we once were and not fear can we overcome this. We've turned into a nation of cowards, and we need to realize that some people can't be negotiated with and nor should we fear them.

I think there was still an attitude of excess and fun in the 90s. IMO, the celebrities, fashion, athletes, music,even advertising were more over the top than today. Everything was "XTREME" and there was a need to keep up. People are more guarded now.

It's a draw on the cartoon battle. Kids in the 90s watched the shows from the 80s too and didn't know the difference. They were all just awesome. Cartoons today are animated strangely. The characters all have big eyes and squared off faces. Google the new Ninja Turtles or some of those star wars cartoons.

The 70's and 80's were much better than the 90's.

I tried watching voltron a few years ago and it was beyond awful. I can imagine he man would be just as bad.

I was born in 1981, and I loved the 90s, it was a great time to grow up.

This. The 80's (GI Joe, Transformers, DinoRiders, Thundercats, ect) was the peak. The 90's were the slow decline (think rock in the 80's compared to the 70's). The 90's still had great cartoons, but once it was over, it was pretty much over.


Total bullshite. 90s was the television animated renaissance. All those cartoons you listed are corny as frick and I can't imagine a socially competent adult deriving any pleasure from them. Batman the Animated Series, Ren and Stimpy, Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, Rocko's Modern Life, South Park, Beavis and Butthead, Simpsons at its peak, Gargoyles, Dexter's Lab, X-Men, Spider-Man, Superman, and I could go on.

My favorite was the one with the mountain you had to climb at the end. (GUTS)?? I can't remember the name, but the 90s were the best. I wish I could go back and do it all over again perpetually. I still listen to nothing but Nirvana, Pear Jam, Foo Fighters, and Bush everyday.

Ah yes the 90s when you lose a buddy during spring break with out a cell phone & you actually have to go find them or in many cases leave him there & drive home.
But it was a time where we were resourceful they always made it home no harm no foul with great story's we would all narrate the story for the next few months. Now for kids it's effortless tweet it instagram it facebook it. Blah blah blah
