The Forgotten Decade
I write this blog in honor of one of the best and most forgotten decades. everyone seems to love the 80's. Well I say what about the 90's? So much was happening that vh1 had to dedicade two "I love the 90's" to it. Now that to me in itself constitutes a great decade. These are several reasons why the 90's were awesome.
1. Great tv. I mean Superman was on and I was obsessed with that show. So was the X Files and Star Trek Next Generation.
2. Rap was still a baby. I mean who could fail to love "Baby Got Back" and "Ice Ice Baby?"
3.Madonna was wearing the pointed boobs and became a social icon once again.
4.Jesse Ventura was the gov. of Michigan.
5.Don't stone me but I loved Regis and Kathy Live. I did so take that Kelly.
6. Arnold was the Kintergarten Cop and not the Cal. gov.
7.Rugrats came out which is perhaps one of the greatest cartoons to come out in the last century. I mean Tommy's last name was Pickle. What ahppened to quality tv?
8.Bob- didn't Whats Eating Gilbert Grape come out in the 90's? So did the Animaniacs.
9.My close personal friend the Wonderbra made his first appearance.
10. We got to see Patrick Swayze as a woman in To Wong Foo.
11.Batman made its first great appearance.
12. Titanic came out this decade- although personally I found it lacking althought I would help Leo steam up that car any time he wanted.
13.One of the scariest movies ever- Urban Legend- came out. Stupid Noxiema actress.
14. Three words- Freaks and Geeks.
15. Birth of Boy bands. Say what you will but your heart once thumped at the sounds of Backstreet Boys.
These and many more are the reasons why I believe the 90's were a better decade than the 80's. After all what could be better than the generation that brought us Animaniacs and Freaks and Geeks?

Oh word.
I do miss Giga pets. And Freaks and Geeks is the most underrated show of all time. Bill Haverchuck was the man.
Thats it, I'm listening to Nirvana and wearing nothing but flannel for the next week.
The 90's were all that and a bag of chips.

Oh the 90's were great too! I don't admit this to most people, but the BSB used to be my most favorite band! (I hearted Nick hard!) In fact, I've got 3 of their cds, until the time they started sucking, copied onto my laptop this very moment. There will be no stoning for your love of the 70's either. That was another great era. They brought us the Bee Gees, Roller Skate/Disco and Elton John's crazy glasses. No way you can diss that! Awesome blog, btw!
