The 90s were an innocent time, where the idea of a guy removing a rib in order to suck himself off was the most outrageous thing we could imagine.

Are you not outraged at genocide?

[garbagebagel@lemmy.world]

Sorry if I'm stupid for asking this but what are you referring to when you say SA?

[buddahriffic@lemmy.world]

Something Awful, it was a link aggregator and comment site like Reddit before Reddit was a thing.

I didn't use it much but I did like that they had voting on posts in multiple dimensions (like funny, insightful, etc).

And most of history is worse than any of that. Other than climate change, we are not living in unprecedented times.

It is intensely difficult to join those ⅔. It takes more than adding fascists’ names to your Lemmy filter tell ya that much.

[lars@lemmy.sdf.org]

More videos. And yet somehow

less agreement on what happened.

[lars@lemmy.sdf.org]

I remember only the post-mortem fingernails that weren’t growing. And was it Rotten that had 9/11 aftermath pics? Yikes.

[lars@lemmy.sdf.org]

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy did they have to teach us that “never again” and “lest we forget” are rhetorical kindnesses but also poisonous lies??!

"Oooommmmmm .... Ooooommmmm"

<deep breath>

<2 minutes guttural screaming>

"eh, I'll try again next time"

[lars@lemmy.sdf.org]

I’m supposed to be walking even more now. I have no ability left to forget difference between what should be and what this garbage today is. Play some old favorite shows in my earbuds? Idfk.

[coreidan@lemmy.world]

At this point there is only so much outrage a person can have before it all feels the same.

[coreidan@lemmy.world]

Sounds totally rational….

[free_opinions@feddit.uk]

I have a strong feeling that if we were to re-live the 90's right now we'd quickly realise it wasn't so "innocent" after all. People just had thicker skin back then and recreational outrage wasn't really a thing due to how slow news and trends speaded at the age of early internet.

[free_opinions@feddit.uk]

I don't think that tops the content on rotten.com

[captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works]

For most of the 1990s the internet wasn't much of a factor in pop culture or daily life. Email was something of a newfangled gimmick in the movie You've Got Mail.

[grumpyduckling@sh.itjust.works]

I was in 3rd or 4th grade at the time and happened to be sick that day. Freaked me out that people were going to think I did it.

[wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world]

"obviously fake ai sludge"

[wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world]

"don't care"

still comes back to argue

hmmmmmmm

[corodius@lemmy.world]

rabies shots, certainly not a fun experience lol

[kitathalla@lemy.lol]

Weren't a few pigeons also, erm, bitten off?
