Post whatever reminds you of those years.
A song a movie, a picture.

Prince's "1999".
Yeah I know it's the end of the decade but I remember the fear that all the computer system would shutdown because the software couldn't handle the century change.
There was a rush to try and update older software to prevent computer systems from locking up.
Highlights: Rodney King, Seinfeld and Beverly Hills 90210, terrorism at the Atlanta Olympics, Bill Clinton, Newt Gingrich and the Moral Majority, Gulf War, grunge, Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill, World Trade Center bombing, bomber jackets and Birkenstocks, Ruby Ridge and Waco, Heaven's Gate, P Diddy and R Kelly.

Being a product of the 80s the grunge movement of the 90's allowed me to extend my adolescence. Then Y2K ruined everything.
Guys...phonecards!!!!
I used to collect them.
They were so colorful.

I still wear flannel shirts tied around my waist.
I still wear flannel period. And occasionally torn jeans (mostly due me tearing them from working)

I like flannels too. They go well with long curtain hair. :=) Too bad we don't get them much around here.

Where I'm from, flannel is an essential.

I had some pogs, a Gigapet, a Sega Genesis, a Walkman, some cassettes, and some VHS tapes, and I thought the lights might go out on 1 January 2000 at 12:00 AM.
Bye bye bye!

Britpop. My first musical tribe. That's what jumps out when I think about the 90s.
I know Oasis are chronically uncool but they were my first musical love. I was 12 when I got a taped copy of Definitely Maybe and it lit me up like a firework. I was filled with the sense that somehow it was important to be listening to them. Music does something mental to the teenage brain.
The other massive developmental event for me was '97 and New Labour's landslide win. I wasn't old enough to vote but already a total weirdo heavily invested and interested in politics. That government taught me some harsh lessons about how politics and power work and how easy it is to be manipulated by people saying what you want to hear.
