The 1990s

[claws]

I've been feeling 1990s nostalgia lately. Post anything from the 1990s right here. Music, movies, food, fashion, news, TV whatever.

Remember those floppy velvet hats from the 1990s?

New Jack Swing was all the rage:

Ah, the 90s.  My first job, my return to Portland OR from living in Federal Way WA for a few years.  Moving into my recently passed Grandma's house, later my first apartment, my first managerial job, lots and lots of anime-watching.. ah, memories.

Songs that immediately take me back to the 90s:
SEMI-CHARMED LIFE- Third Eye Blind

Hmm, big memories from the 90's... turning 18, Gladiators was all the rage on TV, the fall of Communism, the fall of the Tories after being in power too long and the rise of New Labour, the death of Freddie Mercury, my first concert (Motorhead supported by The Almighty at the Barrowlands in Glasgow).

Been thinking a lot lately.....
Back then, it was Montana....
Now it's Florida......

Ahh the 90's. Can't say much from90-June 21, 1994  I remember the first house I lived in, moving to my then deceased grandparents (my dad's parents) house in New Orleans East (fun fact: the guy my parents sold that house to worked on it after Katrina and was the first house back in the block ) Memories of going to Waterville in Gulf Shores in my extreme youth; waking up at around 3 or 4 am to catch a flight out of the city to San Diego (1999)

Some TV memories for me:
X-MEN (man, that Rogue was a hottie!)

The Houston Rockets win their first titles-- and back-to-back!  The 2nd with my hero Clyde Drexler, traded from my Blazers. :(
That first title, the Knicks were poised to win it all, but star guard John Starks went ICE cold.  The following year the Rockets took on Shaq and Penny and swept 'em.  The first SIXTH seed to win it all!
Error 404 (Not Found)!!1
The NBA on NBC!  What a great theme by John Tesh called "Roundball Rock".
Error 404 (Not Found)!!1
Some of the greatest sports moments for me were in the 90s.  My Buffalo Bills went to 4 straight Super Bowls-- and lost 'em all. :(  Still a great team!
Also, my Blue Jays went back to back!  Joe Carter's walk off HR was so memorable.  I had just got done with karate practice with my brother to watch the rest of the game.
Error 404 (Not Found)!!1
And my New Jersey Devils won their first Stanley Cup!  A 4-0 sweep of the Red Wings!  I watched part of the series in Reno on vacation (where I got sunburnt badly) and watched the rest at my (now late) friend's house.

My Trail Blazers should have won a Finals with the team they had-- Clyde, Terry Porter, Duckworth, Buck and Jerome, plus great bench players like Ainge and Cliff.  But they went to 2 of them at least.

I remember getting a free Blazers card in each bag of Franz bread.  "There's a lot of life in every loaf!"

August 31, 1997: one of the worst days in my life, losing someone I never knew personally but always looked up to.

The 90's? s**t. I was poor and raising kids. f**k the 90's.

I was in school - be it high school or college during the 1990s.  Fun times.

I remember the school desktops all looked like this



I remember spending a lot of time in computer labs at school - a lot of them looked like this.



I wonder if colleges even really have computer labs anymore since most students probably have laptops and there's wireless networking available
