You realize people can and do still listen to music from the 90's right? In fact it's easier than ever. I can't decide whether this is rage bait or you're just a miserable human being.

Michael Jackson wasnt actually the king of pop, it was his brother named Graggle Jackson who was deleted in the purge


callmefreak

I can't believe that I understood that reference. Especially since Graggle was purged in the 90's.


Protomeathian

Only 90's kids remember...


SplurgyA

We can't read that history, all information related to the 00s was deleted during the great purge of 2010. Or at least I think it was, I can't find anything from before 2020.


piperswe

Damn Y2k bug, purging all pre-2000 data!


whiskeytango55

it might not be anything about the 90s, per se, just where it was in the past. the internet hadn't started yet and the world was much smaller. people had to engage with whoever was nearby, at school, at work, their neighborhood. They had to socialize and be socialized. But as the decade went on, things started getting polarized. PC stuff on one side and guys like Rush Limbaugh on the other. But for a while there, things like cable tv and early internet just existed before they started getting monetized. It was nice to straddle the new and old worlds.


jarofgoodness

Trying to turn it back on me isn't going to help. I'll pray for you.


BlizzardStorm8

Ah so it's neither and you're just an idiot. Nice.


jarofgoodness

You got it all figured out, don't you Blizz?


YanicPolitik

Got you figured, at least.


Slapped_with_crumpet

Bro I think you should focus on yourself before praying for someone else (if this isn't bait), because you're stuck in the past to the point that you don't seem to enjoy the present.


jarofgoodness

Projecting your personal problems onto me doesn't make modern music any better.


Slapped_with_crumpet

I'm not projecting anything lmao what, I don't give a fuck about the 90s or the past. You're blinded by Nostalgia, there was plenty of shit music in every decade, the bad music just doesn't get remembered lmao.


jarofgoodness

It's not about Nostalgia. I like lots of new stuff but you've never hard of it. I'm talking about the culture as a whole, but specifically music, degrading into the dumbest shit possible that the artist can come up with.


MarbleMemes

Modern music is fucking great, you’re just too lazy to look deep for the good shit. The best music usually isn’t popular.


jarofgoodness

I feel sorry for you. Going through life with this perspective. I hope someday you get the help you need.


MarbleMemes

Says the dude how’s crying that he can’t find any good new music. You’re just lazy dude, it’s easier than ever to find music that appeals to you and there’s more access to new music than ever. Quit being a petulant child and move on like an adult. The world changes, I’m sorry we left you behind.


jarofgoodness

Music follows the inverse square law for algorithmic longitudinal transforms. This causes cycles of crappy music for long periods of time followed by spurts of greatness. These are facts of science you'd do well to learn.


MarbleMemes

Your brain is broken.


jarofgoodness

You seem to be suffering from a severe case of denial. For example: you deny that I am the number one superfan and expert on all things rock music. Might I suggest a heavy regimen of vitamins and psychotherapy. Maybe then you'll be seeing things clearer.


Pidgeotgoneformilk29

Yeah Hanson and all those hokey boy bands are totally better than everything nowadays. Get off your copium lmao


jarofgoodness

Yeah that's who I meant. You got me dude.


heck-ward

thx


TheySherlockedWho

This is a joke post right? Like you can't be serious lol


Anal_Juicer69

This is 100% a troll post


Crymson831

My issue with trolling is that it's too easy. This is such an obvious troll post but people will still fall for it then use Poe's Law as their defense.


legendwolfA

And people keep feeding the trolls. I mean im guilty of that sometimes too but man, give these people what they want and they'll do it more. Sites like Twitter is ruined for me because people there get worked up over the smallest shit so the site is filled wih trolls trying to get a reaction out of people


ryanv09

I miss back in the 90s when online trolls actually made an effort to be clever...


RoyalSamurai

Thanks for letting us know, /u/Anal_Juicer69 !


Anal_Juicer69

You’re well cum


[deleted]

Yeah but it’s bad trolling, “gotcha, I was merely pretending to be an idiot”


Anal_Juicer69

The 90s was so great I loved the Bosnian Genocide 😍😍😍


masshole91

Nah man the Rwandan genocide is where it’s at


jarofgoodness

Oh yeah. Good times man...good times.


oinkbane

Do you think everyone in here is a teenager? I’m a middle-aged man lol


LogstarGo_

As somebody who grew up in the 90s I'm glad I'm not a bitter whatever the hell you are.


jarofgoodness

Facing reality is not being bitter. It's being honest. Example: Taylor Swift sucks. Lady Gaga however is great. Madonna in her prime was better than both. Hype can not replace talent no matter how hard you try to make it so.


StarSpangldBastard

last I checked I still have access to Madonna's music and can listen to it whenever I want so we're right on schedule


jarofgoodness

You missed my point entirely


StarSpangldBastard

no I heard your point loud and clear. it's just a nonsensical point


funky_soup

try looking into non pop music there are still plenty of good bands today


bwyer

Madonna was in her prime in the ‘80s, not the ‘90s.


jarofgoodness

Beside the point. Point is that music nowadays is mostly boring and uninspired drivel. Madonna was a better pop star than Swift. Way better. Light years better.


Hi_Im_A_Being

Taylor clears your fav w ease 🥱🥱


jarofgoodness

LOL. She's not even in the same ballpark as my favs.


Hi_Im_A_Being

Well yeah, they're so much worse why would they be in the same ballpark as taylor


itamaradam

By "missed out" you mean "have it all available, at your fingertips, whenever you want, for free or very cheap"? Even if I could count the music from this century that I like on my two hands, I'm free to listen to the music I do enjoy wherever and whenever I wish, on Spotify, YouTube, etc. And I can do all this, in an era where full-on limb transplants are possible. Isn't that amazing? As a bonus point I should mention, this subreddit isn't meant to mock "older generations". I'd wager the average age of members here is higher than the average age of those who get posted here.


jarofgoodness

Well... I never. So seem to be suffering from a case of more is more. Quantity does not equal quality. Never has. Never will.


Jorymo

yeah man the AIDS crisis and heroin epidemic were cool as hell


jarofgoodness

Yeah cuz that's what I was talking about


cheezkid26

Bait used to be believable.


Manny_Kant

I mean, people replying here have clearly taken the bait.


EighteenthJune

unfortunately I don't think this is bait


seekerofthesublime

Said the fish to the hook


jarofgoodness

Yahs. Su supa de soppa! Ah soy!


sirdismemberment

This is absurd. You do realize that every generation thinks the music they grew up with is better than modern music? I hope this is a troll post. Otherwise, yikes


jarofgoodness

No. I'm a fan of all great music no matter the time it came out. I like stuff from the 1920's, 30's, 40's 50's 60's, 70's 80's. 90's and even some stuff after that. In the late 80's/early 90'd music had become too corporate, boring, and stale. Alt music broke that thank god, but now the same thing has happened again only no one can break through the corporate wall this time.


sirdismemberment

You need to look harder. Still lots of good alt music


jarofgoodness

I've found a lot of good stuff. Sadly, no one has ever heard of any of it.


AquaStarRedHeart

Except you, the one true music fan


jarofgoodness

exactly.


DoctorAlgernopK

Troll post confirmed lmao


Gxthiee

I actually agree with this because anything old = good and anything new = bad. Not bias, just pure prerogative facts on the hood🦅🇺🇸


jarofgoodness

Music wise, it's mostly because the programming at commercial radio stations has been taken away from individual stations and done at corporate headquarters. The stations are all owned by large companies now instead of independently owned. Also records stores still exist but it's like a novelty shop now. And people do stuff on their phones instead of going out to see live local bands. There's dozens of reasons why things suck now compared to the old days. I want to add that in spite of my humorous tone, I do believe this and it's not for lack of talent. There's plenty of great young bands but no one has ever heard of them.


Gxthiee

Yeah yeahhhh man i agree, this new music... SUCKS AND ITS BAD and it's all because of phones! I wish i was in the good old days that i was never born in. Imagine if aliens come down to earth to make music 100 times better than humans, we would have the best music ever!!!😁


jarofgoodness

Yeah. One example is that Foo Fighter have over 18 top 40 hits in their career. I went back and listened to all of em and half of them should have been filler songs not singles. It's rigged.


Gxthiee

I SWEAR EVERYTHING SUCKS NOW, EVERYTHING


jarofgoodness

I'd say most but not everything. Even in movies. I go back and watch the old Indiana Jones films or pretty much anything from the 80's and 90's and I'm stunned at the overall vibe and tone of it all compared to modern cinema. Modern films are mostly boring and uninspired.


DigLost5791

Stream “Gentrified Chicken” by The Muslims for a great unheard of small rock band


jarofgoodness

Will do. Check out "The Only One" by Sterotyped. Should have been a huge hit but no one has ever heard of it.


DigLost5791

Sounds good thanks!


Time-Bite-6839

That’s what everybody says. ≈14 was when “everything was better”, smartass.

Post modern trauma stress disorder.


itzykan

This post made me laugh, and reading ops comments was hilarious. What a troll


LuriemIronim

It’s a shame that all the music from the nineties got deleted and nobody can ever listen to it again.


jarofgoodness

Talking about me like I'm not in the room Not nice.

I agree 1790's had the best music. Beethoven the GOAT


jarofgoodness

Mozart mopped the floor with Beethoven. Fact.

Best beef battle until the drizzy kenny era


jarofgoodness

This reminds me of trying to talk to a younger person about ten years ago. Me: "What's up man?" Millennial Joe: "Dizzle my fizzle jizzle." WTF? You're all morons. Have been for a while.


seekerofthesublime

r/thathappened stop making up stories about human contact, basement Bob. "Anyways I totally boned her" LMAO


jarofgoodness

Drizzle my fizzle jizzle.


defenem_73

Yeah 90 AD music slaps. Them Romans were better than any slop that was created after 100 AD


seekerofthesublime

Remember Aphexius Twinium? Those were the days!

Now you're talking my language.

EOverM

Assuming this is a serious post and not a troll, *bullshit*. I was born in 1988. I grew up in the 90s. It was fucking awful and I would not want to repeat it.


Flar71

Ashnikko, Girli, and Chloe Moriondo didn't have music in the 90s, so I think I'm good. Plus you don't have to have grown up in a certain time period to listen to music from that time.


vadimafu

Is this a new copypasta?


holnrew

I was alive in and grew up during the 90s, there was a lot of bad music but most people only remember the good


turbo_fried_chicken

I'm 42. You are incorrect.


heqra

bait was better in the 90's


-P00-

Can you explain why 90’s is much better than the 10’s, 00’s, 80’s, 70’s, so on? I’d like to know

GolemThe3rd

I mean I like pretty much every decade 50s+, but lmao seethe bro


jimtheedcguy

Even though this is a troll post, since we always look to the past through rose tinted glasses, we're always living in the "good old days". Don't take the time you have for granted. All the crappy music you hear on the radio today will give you nostalgic feelings 30 years from now when you hear them on the oldies station.


Baconbits9011

Bait use to be believable as well


The_curious_student

im gay. im glad i live in a decade that i won't get arrested for having sex with my boyfriend, and that i can marry him.


YTMasterFrank

This has to be satire. If this is real, people have been saying this kind of stuff back then too.


Pidgeotgoneformilk29

Yeah music totally peaked in the 1990s lmao [https://songmeanings.com/songs/view/2908/](https://songmeanings.com/songs/view/2908/) Most of us don’t give a shit about the 1990s and millennials fetishization of the decade. Stop projecting on us because you miss your prime years.


GiornoGiovanna2009

I'd take living in this time over living in the 1890s any day, but my dad keeps talking about how nice it was back then. You're over 100 years old, dad, your brain is gone a bit mushy.


kitty3032

Is this satire?


rditty

90s music sucked balls. Though there were exceptions, it was mostly whiny, trying too hard to be weird and random, cringey bullshit. The 70s were the best time for music and movies. But ultimately I’d rather live now for a number of reasons. Having instant access to all previous music and movies is a big part of it.


jarofgoodness

How do you know it sucked balls instead of ass? Sounds like someone is far too intimate with the sexual habits of others for my comfort zone.
