Comment preview: Dear ESPN, WTF HAPPENED TO YOU BRO? This is not the espn i grew up with in the 90s. The espn i grew up with in the 90s only cared about reporting, NOT MAKING THE NEWS. The espn i grew up with showed us nothing but highlights and statistics. Now, if you don ....

Comment preview: The German perspective of America is also somewhat related to the generation. Those born during or immediately after WWII tend to regard the Americans as those who helped us rebuilding our devastated country, as those who protected us against the communist ....

Comment preview: Even though you're getting downvoted, this x1000. Trust me, I have a ton of great memories from that time period. I loved the games, I grew up on 90's gaming. But 90's gaming was great within the context of 90's gaming. The experience wasn't just playing t ....

Comment preview: I know that feel my friend. When I was younger, I was lying in my room, enjoying the scrambled porn station (you know what I'm talking about if you grew up in the 90s). Anyway, let's just say I'm "enjoying" myself when I hear footsteps coming down the hall ....

Comment preview: I put up a 6-second clip from a video game like 3 years ago on youtube. After having it up a few weeks, I get a bunch of comments and a couple thousand views, and Youtube asks me if I want to be a "partner" so I agree and then they tell me I have to sign u ....

Comment preview: Being an American who grew up in the 90's, I didn't find out about Doctor Who until the SciFi channel started airing the Ecclestone episodes (9th Doctor) in 2005. I thought that show was really exciting and I really liked it, so I became a fan of the seri ....

Comment preview: I grew up in the 90's - graduated high school in 2001. The 90's was the last time J. Crew and GAP were relevant brands for people under 30. WHen I was a college freshman, we used to joke about how "lame" my friend's roommate was because his clothes were fr ....

Comment preview: I see the opposite. Kids growing up in the Bush years during an age of conservatism, high religiosity, crashed economies, and fears of terrorism aren't the freewheeling kids I grew up with. The 90s had this almost counter-culture indie feel to it and now ....

Comment preview: Honest question: How old are you? It was targeted at and hit a very specific age group in 1999. If you were old enough to see the classic teenage sex flicks in the 80s (Fast Times, Animal House (1978) Any John Hughes movie, Porky's, etc...) then this is ju ....

Comment preview: I just don't understand the people who say, "well they are fleeing oppression- we need to help them" No we don't. When did the countries that work correctly ever write in their way of business to take every unlucky fucker on planet Earth. The English used ....

Comment preview: > The purpose of all TV fathers is to show how unnecessary dad really is. Absolutely true now, but this wasn't always the case. I grew up with 90's sitcoms. My guess would be that the portrayal of dads changed in the late nineties. The sitcoms with dop ....

Comment preview: How old are kids when they're getting these trophies, though? I grew up in the 90s so yeah, I got a few. But I only ever recall them being given out for very small children. For tee-ball when I was 5, and "cartwheel contest" when I was probably 4. Plus ....

Comment preview: Sorry I can't agree with that statement. I grew up in the 90's. There was just as much media outrage over video games as there is now. Perhaps you'll remember the crazy bs that accompanied Doom. Parents groups freaking out that Doom would corrupt their kid ....

Comment preview: Taking cute pictures of your kids naked or in some state of undress. I grew up in the 90's so I have the stack of cutesy bath-time pics my parents took. Nowadays if you take those to be developed at the store you will be charged with child porn. Recently t ....

Comment preview: >I have ODD and anxiety and ADHD So did every kid who grew up in the 90s. Any hyper-active kid was given these insane personality-altering drugs because their parents are too fucking lazy to do some damn parenting. I was on Prozac and Adderall until I w ....

Comment preview: Making a playlist is simple actually. the goal is to keep it simple. Let me see if I can create rules real quick for creation. 1. Know the party. (are people drinking? is it a few people? is it a bunch of people? is it the summer and outside sunny? is ....

Comment preview: I am a huge X-Men fan. I liked the X-Men before I even knew about the Avengers (probably just like anyone else who grew up in the 90's with that amazing cartoon). The reason I want X-Men back with Marvel is because I feel Fox has never treated them properl ....

Comment preview: Honestly I'd like to see a study or some hard numbers on how much time kids spent outside back then versus now. -- found one study, in second edit. I have a feeling it's no where near as big of a difference as Reddit thinks. **edit** I really don't want to ....

Comment preview: For white people life was great. They enjoyed innumerable privileges such as the privileges to: sell liquor, send their children to any school they pleased and live in any part of the country. For black people life was terrible. They were heavily subjugate ....

Comment preview: Some kids who grew up in the 90s actually have kids of their own now, so they want their kids to watch what THEY watched; Rocko, Doug, Hey Arnold, etc. Plus, Nickelodeon has tons of programming that they haven't really exploited on DVD or even aired rece ....

Comment preview: I think people who don't rate the first *Die Hard* very highly must be people who either aren't old enough to remember, or just don't remember, what action movies were like before *Die Hard* came along: Before *Die Hard*, every action movie had a guy who l ....

Comment preview: And I'll be in my science propelled flying jetsons car by the year 2000! Oh wait... edit: some people took it too seriously, so ill provide some background i guess... when i was growing up, a while before that too, there was constant talk about "flying car ....

Comment preview: Long time lurker, first time caller. What the everloving fuck. Everybody is marking inconsistencies much better than I, but I want to set one thing straight about Jay's fear of being arrested for drugs. Plain and simple, there is no promise from police. An ....

Comment preview: Since Reddit is inevitably heading in this direction with recent posts, and I want to avoid the huge influx of these posts: Everyone who grew up in the 90's remembers Rugrats, Legends of the Hidden Temple, slap bracelets, Surge soda, Kenan and Kel, All Tha ....

Comment preview: I grew up in the 90s and did not have an easy time being into typical "nerd" things like card games, video games, etc. It wasn't until I was in high school in the early 2000s that I even encountered decently-sized groups of peers who were into nerdy things ....
