What do you miss most about the 90's?

That is what I hate about dating life today I'm 33 and still single still trying to find a decent man but I try to meet guys over the internet on dating sites or on phone chats and then get them to meet in person its like they prefer living behind the computer or phone instead of going out there and meeting in person the old fashioned way.

yep. that'll happen in today's world. We rely on technology so much

It's only a matter of time before I can get a flu shot via email

The innocence...I was in jr high and high school at the time. I had zero responsibility for bills. My parents kept roof over my head. Did not have to worry about my health care. Awesome music I could listen to for hours on end--Kurt was alive. I remember when he did die my freshman year.

the economy

As I'm writing it, it already sounds pretentious, but I'd say the authenticity or originality of people is something I miss a lot.

People weren't as polished and they definitely weren't anticipating or expecting constant judgment because social media didn't exist, so there was a lot less anxiety over appearance and just in general. It does a lot to a person to know that, if they don't say or do the right thing online, someone will say something. Maybe a thousand someones. No one but your parents and close friends would criticize you as harshly in the 90s, and even then the restraint was greater because it was almost impossible to hide while being so openly critical.

Parents weren't shirking their responsibilities to post inspirational quotes and photos as proof of good parenting on Facebook - they neglected their children the old fashioned way: by putting them outside or in their backyards "to play" and, you know, actually performed some of their daily tasks or talked on this thing called a telephone and visited friends and family.

I definitely feel the most sorry for kids today, because their lives are so paradoxical. They're supposed to possess more technological-know than adults and have more access to information banks like the internet, but be more sheltered somehow, more innocent, and less mature, AND yet are more sexualized now. Mind boggling.

I think the worst thing about all of this stuff is how much more consumerist it has made everyone. You don't just buy your kids expensive toys and, you know, food and clothing, but can spend hundreds on a single technological item for a toddler. Makeup tutorials offer us so many discount codes, we can get all the designer brands in the low hundreds instead of a $3 lip gloss. So everyone works more and buys more stuff, and never feels like they have enough because all that stuff is just the standard now.

I agree with the music videos on MTV and VH1. I started my day getting psyched, pumped by watching them. Which leads me to my ultimate miss, the money I earned during that prosperous decade.

Quick off the top of my head were choker necklaces and that I was a teenager. And the music that came in with the whole grunge scene.

I miss Bill Clinton. He frustrated me at times, but he seemed to best understand the issues and was able to elucidate the best solutions.

I also miss the feeling of not being alarmed every day, although this feeling is starting to subside now that Trump is out of office.

I miss being in college. Had some great times.

I also miss shows by David E. Kelley.

And I miss CDs and DVDs. I still have not caught up with all this downloading stuff.

How things had attitude and soul and style.. now everything is bland and boring
