The 1990s was a fascinating time to be young and growing up. The world was changing around us so rapidly that we could barely keep up. Just think, in 1990, the best way to get a hold of someone far away was a long-distance phone call. By 1999, you had instant email — both of which now seem like archaic technologies.
In the ’90s, we were in-your-face and unapologetic about it. We wore what we wanted and didn’t have to worry about being shamed on social media for it — only in printed photos at the class reunion. If you think about it, the ’90s really weren’t all that long ago, but so much is different from 2021 that those of us who grew up in the final decade of the 20th century look back at the things we did then and laugh.
