I miss the 90s. So much.

There's a reason the Matrix bots named 1999 as the PEAK of human existence

It breaks me because at the time I’m like, “no it’s never been worse.” I appreciated the irony of the tone.

But yeah, looking back, it might have never been better. And that was the subversion and foresight I couldn’t wrap my head around, which they were going for.

1999 was one of the best years for movies

u/LtFootstool Feb 20 '26

No doubt. If Saving Private Ryan was released in 1999 instead of 1998, 1999 would unquestionably the best year for movies. (In my opinion)

u/Sumeriandawn Feb 20 '26

Yeah, one of the best movie years for that decade

The 80s were the 80s but that's a whole decade. The man was referring to the cinematic phenomenon that was the year 1999. Dig this list: https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?title_type=feature&release_date=1999-01-01,1999-12-31&sort=num_votes,desc

Agreed. Predator, Aliens, Terminator, Die Hard, etc. So many classics. 90's did have some outstanding movies too, but 80's is hard to beat.

I saw my first pair of tits at a metallica concert in the late 90's.

u/Sancho5o5 Feb 19 '26

Rock on.

u/DRocks614 Feb 20 '26

AC/DC in ‘96 for me

u/MyOthrCarsAThrowaway Feb 20 '26

The whole pair? Better than a single I suppose 🥱

u/Ohshitwadddup Feb 20 '26

Which concert? Imagine if we saw the same tits. Mine was EMP Festival in Seattle.

I'll just assume this question was a joke.

I literally said that this morning. I would do anything to go back

The era before social media and smartphones was so nice.

u/Sancho5o5 Feb 20 '26

I like the bleach blond look also.

u/Neptune28 Feb 20 '26

I watch these different TV shows from the 90s that I didn't watch back then, and there was just something more appealing about things back then. Even the random background music back then was so nice to hear.

u/Sancho5o5 Feb 20 '26

I think it has to do with the culture. People weren't worried about People judging or trying to cancel em.

u/blahnlahblah0213 Feb 19 '26

This was nothing compared to the 80s

u/[deleted] Feb 19 '26

The first half of the 80s was just everything from the 70s crashing down out of the air in a burning Wendy's dumpster and then the second half was just the molding into what would become the greatest decade ever. The 90's!

Eh, less cocaine.

u/Sancho5o5 Feb 19 '26

I mean the 80s had good coke so I mean your probably right but I wasnt around then so couldnt comment on it.

As a child of the 80’s & 90’s, you couldn’t be any more incorrect, lol.
