Do you even remember what life was like a quarter century ago?

[Bucky]

We're so busy in the bustle of the 21st century, can we even recall the simple pleasures of life a mere 25 years ago, "more than a generation away" from our advanced modern times!

(Starring Wink Martindale!)

1. Who could forget 1999??!

Y2K bug? Anyone?

Dotcom bubble near bursting!

[Bucky]

4. Apparently they thought that department stores would still be around in 1999.

and that the centralized storage of family consumer habits wouldn't be raided by marketers to be weaponized into targeted advertising

2. If u were out of touch with pop culture as I usually am, you missed it.

I am so unprepared for modern times i want to find a life coach for culture and reentry. But it's an alien specialty.

3. I think social media has ruined a lot. Yes there are positives, but a ton of negatives from it.

[Croney]

5. So, the wife spends the money and the husband pays for what she buys.

They couldn't imagine a world without the familiar traditional sexism.

The absurd singer at the end is not a native Spanish speaker, and he didn't really sing those weird high notes.

Otherwise, it was kinda campy.

6. It's a horror movie. You can tell by the music when the title appears written in the sand.

This is the nightmare world techno-fascists like Elon Musk fantasize about -- a fucking Nazi Utopia.

[NBachers]

7. Republicans are still fascist pisspots.

[Elessar Zappa]

8. Positives:

Everyone wasn’t immersed in their cell phones all the time, the Republicans weren’t quite as fascist. Negatives: Crime was higher, gay rights were almost non-existent.
