I don't think I was any different as a person mentally in the 90's 00's or even now. I'd say the real bulk of my "growing up" and experiencing life was done in the 00's. That's when I went to college, experienced all the perks of adulthood, met my wife....
    Living through these different eras, wouldn't that qualify me to judge and compare different eras?
    In my opinion I think we've regressed as human beings due to modern technology not just by the way we communicate, but by the way we interact and treat fellow human beings.

    powerful, bruh. that's why i don't have facebook or anything regarding social media. it's nice to communicate with relatives and friends that live far away. still nothing beats a conversation on the phone.

    i have a lot of friends, and outside of my immegiate fam, only 2 of my close bruhs have my cell number. i remember 3 years ago i had over 500 contacts and my phone was constantly harassed with texts. i only text when the person im calling is not answering or if their busy like working.

    its funny, my major is computer related, but i hate that technology is being used so often as a way to socialize. i remember when i was younger, the first day of school, everybody would introduce themselves to each other and just talk. now that i started college, the first day of class, mostly everybody is too busy on their smart phone or computer.

    Most people seem to think the best era was the one they grew up in. The best era will happen sometime in the future.

    Gott'a stop ya there. This era the 00s and 10s era have the best collection of shows ever on TV. The worst too, but the best TV shows in this era are amazing.

    Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Dexter, The Walking Dead, Spartacus, Mad Men and Boardwalk Empire.


    The cartoon shows in the 90s and early 00s were better tho. Tho there are some gems in this era too.

    These are the OGs life drainers.









    And of course Final Fantasy and Zelda.

    I'd rather have been a youth in the 60s and a teenager/young adult in the 70s. The 90s were nothing special and your reasons don't ****ing mean shit to me.

    94-96 were probably the best years of my life. I got introduced to Cable TV, MTV, Started high school, hung out with cool friends, played basketball after school for hours, rode bike to friend's house, started driving.
