Was growing up in the 90's the GOAT era to be a child in?

[Benjamin Sisko]

any mike , tyson , jordan , Jackson.
Plus even baseball was entertaining with Deon Sanders and Bo Jackson. Ken Griffey, Bonds etc
SNL was actually funny with the 90s legend Farley, Sandler, Spade, Rock, etc and We still In Living to compete with that.
We low key still had viral videos with Americas Funniest Home Videos.
Pogs had a nikka taking peoples shyt in 2nd grade like grown ups with Dice.



but by far the very best thing about the 90s was fukkin fruit gushers my nikka,don't hate.

This shyt was like bitcoin in middle school, i could trade a gushers for anything.
Me "trying to be my girlfriend?"
Her "no don't go chasing waterfalls lil nikka. I don't want no scrubs lil boy,"
Me "I give you some of my fruit gushers."
Her "........ok but only first base"

We at the playground and me saying i want some ANNIHILATORS

Folks born in the 80's are caught in between the old school and new school generations. Old enough to remember what the GOAT life was like before social media but young enough to blend in with the new school. But why would you though?

Kids won't understand the GOAT feeling when you beat a nikka ass in Tekken, SF, MK and you gotta look at the salt on their face as they walk away from the arcade machine.

But then when that one asian show up everybody be like and go to another game.

Nobody was trying to get that work from the one cac or asian that knew all the fatalities and moves and the game only been out 2 days

 

[you're NOT "n!ggas"]

Back in them days you actually had to CHASE the ice cream truck these days when i DO see one they're just posted up. You can't trust your child's safety running after a stranger's van like that though

I literally played outside until the street lights came on every day in the summer. I would come in the house to get something to drink and get yelled at for letting all the cold air out. Now I dont see any kids outside. My aunt was complaining that my little cousin was putting on too much weight, I was like let that lil nikka play outside, she goes "there are no other kids out there to play with him.

This era is the best imo.
Y'all talked about sports they came up great NBA and the Overall talent is better than the 90s.
The music they can stream from their phone and get anything they want.

They can talk to females without even talking and use text or social media.

I think the Nostalgia of the flabby and sick is going to yall heads...

i liked being able to collect albums, and i completely disgree about the NBA talent. Not a single player in the NBA currently would be able to defend 90s Shaq. 90s Jordan, 90s Hakeem. and 90s Pippen and 90s Rodman make draymonds greens defense look like college. nikkas like Mark Price, Ray Allen and Reggie Miller could shoot the 3 better anyone not named steph curry and yet everyone and their momma takes more threes than them. Doesn't even make sense. Patrick Ewing was literally at the bottom of totom of 90s centers and yet was better than any 5 currently playing ball. Charles Barkley at 6'6" would probably be the best player in the league if he played today. David robinson was a 7'2" version of anthony davis and he constantly got shytted on. and yet today we act like Anthony Davis might be the best player in the league one day. Superstars used to lead the league in scorering and make 1st team all defense. Now most of the leading scorers don't even play defense. Steph Curry, terrible d, James Harden, Terrible D, Durant, Below average d, Lebron, On and off D. Not a single full time superstar that will lock you down outside of Kawhi Leonard.

Also, how is this a good thing? females actually had to fukk with nikkas in their immediate neighborhood or be single. Now you have to compete with nikkas in your entire city, some of these even be going all the way to Dubai. Guarantee Ashanti would be wifed up right now if she was in 95.
Also using the better technology argument is stupid. Every era is going better ways of playing music than the previous one, is that all you got. Streaming?

 

[Benjamin Sisko]

What if the 90s were the cultural peak of civilization and we were the chosen ones that got to live it?

Breh, they dont even make actual scientific kid shows like Bill Nye or educational shows like Reading Rainbow or Where in the World is Carman San Diego anymore.

I used to watch the fukk out of those shows.

Spoken like a dude who woulda got no play in the 90s/2000s

This exactly what's wrong with this soft ass generation and ironically why women are so much more difficult to talk to than back then

I make my daughter watch magic school bus, because there literally isn't any other educational cartoons that actually tackle science. Bill Nye, i'll put her on to when she is a bit older.

Dragon Ball Z and the first Power Rangers was better than the trash you named

Live action martial arts > teen trash

You dont understand I got play in the 90s and 2000s tho.

Younger and older women aren't harder to book now at all. The game is easier now if anything. You can swipe right text, or holler in person.

Also women are overall way more sexual this era compared to prior cuz the internet and porn. Eating ass is talked about casually in this era.

Some in the younger generation MIGHT be softer in some ways but that might be ok because you can get ahead without being physically imposing now.
Also high as been stopped fist fighting and took it to weapons.

Also the Younger generation can get fit through apps and YouTube fitness gurus now in their room or at the gym.
