My Tribute To The 90's - Nubblies.net Forums

ProfessorNumber · 08-07-2003, 06:54 PM

It was odd, the other day I was listening to the radio when I heard them say something to the extent of "your listening to blah blah, where the 90's are always alive". And It made me realize just how long gone the 90's really are. I also realized just how much I loved the 90's, and wish they were still around.

The 90's were possibly the greatest years of American culture. In terms of music, there was everything from the Rembrandts to Bush, and even Alanis Morrisette. However, all of these artists sort of suck now, which is quite sad.

Even the cars were better, since they changed the box frame designs from the 80's. I mean, even though the Ford Mustang is a piece of shit, the 90's Mustangs kick ass in comparison to the 80's ones. This holds true for almost every model of car in America.

Political correctness wasn't so much of an issue, and the economy kicked ass compared to what it is now. I would go so far as to say that even the presidents were better (and I hated Clinton).

Also, another thing worth mentioning were the Action hero's. I still watch Walker Texas Ranger even to this day. Not to mention, the best modern James Bond film was made during the 90's; Goldeneye. In action movies, the good guys were always doing flying kicks. I especially miss flying kicks, since it seems that all the good guys do now is strangle their apponents to death. Strangling is a very pussy move to do in a fight, and should never be used by the good guy.

Anyway, thats about it. Anyone else miss the 90's?

There are some things that I miss about the 90's....I just need time to really think about them. I'd have to say that there are things about the early 90's that I don't miss. They were just an extension of the 80's....

"saved by the bell"...at least i think it started in the 90's...

Fruitacious B · 08-08-2003, 05:06 PM

I concur, the teenage mutant ninja turtles were the greates contribution of the 90's.

Dr. Seuss · 08-08-2003, 06:15 PM

Saved By the Bell was one of the best things of the 90's.

Preach! I watched Saved by the Bell every moring before school. Back then it didn't get much better than Zack, Slater, Screech, and the gang. I watch the re-runs whenever I see they are on too. All the cartoons are better then too, The Ninja Turtles, X-Men, Ren and Stimpy, and Captain Planet could Kick Pokemon and all those japanese cartoon's asses. Yep, the 90's were great for kids.

Speaking of Saved by the Bell, if you turn to TBS during the week at 11:30 am, you can catch this wonderful masterpiece of a show.

Dr. Seuss · 08-09-2003, 02:01 AM

And 11:00. I watch it nearly everyday. Uh. Yeah.

Nickelodeon was cool, too, until they cancelled all the good shows. Fuckerz. After they cancelled Invader Zim, (which has nothing to do with the 90's) i gave up on those fuckerz.

Snapple... it was a staple of the 90's largely thanks to Seinfeld, but you don't really reach for the Snapple as readily as you once did... do you? DO YOU?!?!

ninjaface · 08-09-2003, 02:09 PM

I saw Dr. Seuss mentioned Nickelodeon. That channel rocked in the 90's with shows like The Adventures of Pete and Pete, Hey Dude, Salute Your Shorts, Guts, Nick Arcade, and Legend of the Hidden Temple(might have been called something else). I'm sure there were other shows, but I can't think of any more.

Nickelodeon was awesome. But now its gone to hell. I've heard of a channel that has all the great shows of the 90's on it. I would definitely be interested in getting that channel.

tonguegina · 08-09-2003, 04:22 PM

Sorry to burst people's bubbles, but the Ninja Turtles were the best thing to come out of the '80s not the '90s. The original comic started around '84 and the cartoon was created in '88.

I'd say that maybe 'Seinfeld' was the best thing of the '90s. While the pilot aired in '89, no episodes were aired until fairly late in '90. Everyone knows that Seinfeld paved the way for todays sitcoms...even the almighty 'Friends'.

the_butcher · 08-09-2003, 04:50 PM

Toungegina, I didn't think the TMNT came out in the 90's. I remember them from my EARLY childhood of the 80's, so I'm glad you cleared that up.

undisputed · 08-10-2003, 01:50 PM

My vote would go to Saved by the Bell or Boy Meets World.

Both are shows that defined my childhood.
