If We Get Hillary Back, We Also Get Some Other Things From The 90s Back As Well
We'd be getting this too...

Fanny packs...


Overalls as fashion...


Butterfly clips


Starter jackets


Doc Martens


Caps with the tags still on it


B.U.M Equipment clothing


Pogs


Troll dolls


The mushroom cut


Sayings such as

"all that and a bag of chips."
"Gettin' jiggy."
"talk to the hand."


These guys...






And you'd be viewing this wesbite on this...



Through This....



.
.
.
.
.
.
So the question is, do we really want this...


...and all that comes with it?

Your choice, America.

1. That was funny. :) I liked the butterfly clips and the Docs, though.
And some of the music was incredible.

8. Yeah, that WAS horrible, wasn't it?
Good God...relatively cheap gas.

People here can laugh if they want, but I can remember some damn good things from the 90's.

30. I had just bought a '97 Geo Metro (which I still drive) when that
happened and was kicking myself for getting such a small car when it cost me $6.00 a week for gas. Glad I have it now.

9. Here in Pittsburgh, starter jackets and fanny packs never went away.
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: So I guess Hillary will have to win in PA since we're still living in the 90's :shrug: :shrug:

12. Nice, 5 stars and on a serious note the 90's are very different than
the serious challenges we face now.

To think we can "just go back" to the 90's prosperity is incredibly naive.

Peace dividend vs. confronting Al Qaeda and dealing w/ Bush's mess in Iraq/Iran/Afg/Pak
Internet boom vs. peak oil
Fall of the Soviet Union vs. a rising totalitarian gov in Russia
the list goes on and on...

Also a lot of the problems we have now are because of the 90's and the mass corp giveaway the DLC was so happy to engage in.

15. And Grunge!
Unfortunately, the Spice Girls did make a comeback of sorts recently. :eyes:

Unfortunately, Docs haven't yet. I loved my Docs.

You made me feel kind of warm and fuzzy for a minute there...I graduated H.S. in 1994. :)

20. I still carry a fanny pack, lol.
Unlike many women, I don't need to carry much with me. A wallet, my personal calendar, a pen, some ibuprofen. My checkbook. My wallet is a thin little trifold, and everything fits with plenty of room to spare.

I don't actually WEAR the fanny pack very often, just carry it around, but still...

I also still have a great pair of overalls in the closet. :D

Trolls? I remember them from the 60s, not the 90s.

A troll doll in overalls, though, is new to me:
