Y'all forgot sports.

Jordan, Kobe, Iverson, Vince,Hakeem, Shaq, Mike.tyson, tiger woods, Randy moss, Jerry rice.

TV wasn't so agenda filled either, and porn induced ED wasn't a thing

The coliseum told me that today's NBA league is better than ever.

90s TV had plenty of sexual content.

Im old enough to remember 1990 through 1999.

:manny:

Mhmm..There's a different experience for folks who were younger (pre teen or younger) versus folks who were pretty much old enough to fully experience 90s life without filters.

I'm old enough to remember buying Reasonable Doubt and It Was Written in '96, breh..Our experiences are probably completely different just from an age perspective alone.

I had older siblings so my 90s experience wasnt watching cartoons or something like that. The only thing I didnt experience was clubbing and that has never been my thing anyways so Its not something I feel I missed.

a time period being the highlight of your life and having good memories of a time are two different things. Most cats speak on the past on some "when life was good" stuff.

Sexual content in adult aimed movies not fakkitry in kids cartoons.

NBA was always watered down since the beginning. But there was way more larger then life stars then today.

Videogames were better in the 2000s tho.

Cameras???:pachaha:

I do miss the sitcoms.

AOL was trash & gateway computers were trash.:trash:

Cartoons were exquisite compared to nowadays. Probably the biggest difference out of all the things you listed.

As far as fashion a lot of things that's cool now is pretty much a throwback of some of the 90s fashion.:manny:

The same thing applies for hairstyles.
low key throwing shade at sega and bigging up microsoft:mjpls:

How is it going backwards? :dahell:

I'm pretty sure more blacks are going to college and attaining professional jobs/business ownership, crime rates are much lower than they were in the past, teenage pregnancy is lower, black community isn't being ravaged by crack and heroin, incarceration rates are lower, etc.

But are we losing ourselves in the proccess:mjcry:

Wrong

I could only pick out good things and write up the same thing for the 80s

And 70s

And 60s

We could cherry pick what was good for any generation

Back in the 90s Chicago and other cities had even MORE deaths per year and gangs were actually killing over colors. Convienently left that out, huh? :comeon:

Go ahead and tell me what was so great about the 60's:mjpls:
