-variety in gaming

-action movies and stars like Stallone, Van Damme, Arnold

-Mainstream music was actually good back then, you didn't have to go dig deep into obscure bands or groups to find the good stuff like today. "u arent looking hard enough" Thats always the defense of those who say there is still good music.

I don't see how so many people mentioned the music. 90s music is and was terrible and forgettable especially in the mid 90s.

Nah 90s music was great: techno, eurodance, west/east coast gangsta rap rivalry, g-funk, groups like Faithless etc, this is specific for me but Turkish music was great too.

Not really especially since 80s music was at least five times better.  A prime example of this superiority would be 1987 versus 1997.

That list has at least 80 memorable and iconic songs.

That list has maybe 20 memorable and iconic songs in it and the top ten is mostly forgettable except for the song in the top spot.

I miss my matte black 1980 Buick Riviera. I even painted the bumpers and grille.
The engine crapped out on me in 1993 so I dropped a 455 in it. Total beast!
I had to sell it at the end of the 90s to get something more practical.

But why that has to be one of the most forgettable cars of the 80s.  Its just as forgettable as the first car that I drove (just in a empty parking lot not any actual streets) a 1983 Dodge Mirada but at least that car gets a few cool points for also being the base car for a NASCAR race car.  The vast majority of all American cars in the late 70s and early 80s where forgettable and terrible the only places that made worse cars where the UK, the countries behind the iron curtain and South Korea.

The dancing segments on Soul Train. The old formula for Lucky Charms. Liking garbage like Lucky Charms. A pair of pants I used to have. How I looked.
