\_ Winner:
Unclear on
the Concept
Award.
\_ Those things existed, but so what? They were painful then
and painful now and all of them are still here so what's
the difference? (Tom Cruise is still here even if his
earlier movies are forgotten)
\_ Technically star wars is from the 70's. Or did you mean
Empire and ROTJ.
How about the people born in the 80s and grew up in the 90s? What
is your equivalent? I'm wondering if there's a generation gap with
you young folks.
\_ fuck your pop culture. i was born in '76 and grew up in the 80's
and know nothing for your pansy ass micheal jackson crap.
DRI, Metallica, Iron maiden, motorhead, minor threat, black flag,
repo man, thrasher magazine, skateboarding, setting stuff on
fire, hating ronald reagan, being an anarchist, programming
the apple ][e in assembler...
\_ So Reagan was in office from 81 to 88 which makes you all of
about 12 when he *left* office. And you were all of about 14
when the 80s ended. So you were a Reagan hating anarchist
listening to Iron Maiden all through the 80s from age 4 to 14?
Sure, kid, sure. We all know the 90s sucked but trying to worm
your way into the 80s with bad math won't help you any.
\_ They get nothing. They are weak and easily pushed to the wall.
\_ Ewe! You are so 80s!
\_ How dare you call them a sheep.
\_ you mean there are people born in the 80s? How weird is that?
\_ VH1, Win95, High Speed Internet, AIM, PlayStation
\_ You really want to lay claim to vh1, win95 and AIM?
\_ I'm just saying these are things that kids growing
up in the 90's had. I'm not saying that they are
good. Some other things that 90s kids had:
Linux, Street Fighter 2, MTV's Real World/Spring Break,
Gulf War, bad scifi (TNG, DS9, VOY, B5, etc.)
\_ They had fewer parents, more pregnancies and higher
rates of drug use and suicide, too. |
