It was great. You actually had to hide to smoke some weed with the boys.

No, but late 80's high school they started popping up. I didn't have one but my drug dealer did.

My dad used to have one of these voice pagers back in the 80's.

Farm diesel was $.30/gallon before that cocksucker bill Clinton raised the price via regulations I’d reckon.

The 90's were tGOAT decade.

Simpler times, great music, great TV shows, great movies ,and just an overall great vibe.

If I had a time machine, I'd go back to the 90's and stay there. The 80's and 90's was the peak of American culture.

I still don’t have an air fryer

The 90s were great - I turned 10 in 1990 so the 90s were some of the best years for me

I spent most of the '90s as a drunken sailor traveling the world on aircraft carriers. It had some high points.

So you don't cook? A lot forms of cooking involve moving hot air around food. Your oven and bbq pit to name two of them.

Couldn't throw complete caution to the wind but I remember just roaming the neighborhood with friends almost to sundown and then going home and no one panicked. I would essentially come home from school and go straight outside to playing basketball for hours or football if more people were around. Actually knew a good amount of the neighbors where I grew up. Now moving around, you are lucky to know your immediate neighbors haha. I can't imagine today just letting my kids roam the neighborhood with friends now for hours on end with no check in.

We have one and don't really use it that much. Maybe a few times per month.

Nostalgia makes the past seem way better than it really was.

That's not to say the decade of your choosing wasn't great to you, but a lot of the negatives are completely ignored when waxing nostalgic about the "good ole days".

I also feel like a lot of the "good ole days" were periods of time when we were children. Which makes sense considering we didn't have all of this adult stress in our lives.

Just saying that an air fryer is just a marketing ploy for a new gadget because people have been "air frying" for a long time by using other traditional cooking methods.
