People always say the past look better in comparison to the present but Gotdamn Gotdamn Gotdamn the 90s was just so ? GREAT IMO. You Had WCW/WWF, Music's Golden Age, GOAT TV Shows, Cheap Gas, More concerts. Whats yall thoughts on the two decades ?

    Of course i would have to go wit the 90's cuz thats when everything was new to me

    From a street perspective it was just more things to do, it was hella people out now it looks like a Ghost Town in most neighborhoods.

    The gang ? wasnt really hitting on nothing, you had to rely on you're heart not hide behind a flag.

    As far as just life, I'm going to say the 2000s was better than the 90s. The technological revolution we had in the early 00s can only be compared to the 50s IMO. It was amazing. Just think about all the stuff we have that we didn't have a few years before 2001. In ten years we got cellphones that are literally like laptops, social networking EVERYWHERE that connects the world better than ever before and YouTube. Come on son.

    You right, but i think i also helped to deter quality of life. Look how hard music fell off with all of the hacking/leaks and stuff like that. Maybe if it wasnt for the rapid evolution of technology things wouldnt have changed so drastically

    But people suck, music sucks, america sucks, tv sucks. technology only allows us to see just how much it all sucks in high definition.

    Napster is the greatest thing to ever happen to the world, seriously. P2P put the power back into the people's hands. You can't stop the monster now.

    And music doesn't suck. Y'all just have terrible taste in music. Broaden your horizons, ? .

    Yea...? in here not thinking. In the 90s, no cell phones, no (good) computers or laptops, no smart phones, no PS3, XBox360, no Streaming online, Porn was WOAT, Dial up Internet, no DVDs, no HD, no Bluray, you had to pay for music. no Google (til 98), Facebook, Twitter or YouTube. While Jordan was the GOAT Basketball player, beside him there was a nosedive in popularity to the next star. No Kobe, Lebron, Wade, Rose, CP3, Durant, Melo. The popular clothing style in the 90s was treacherous.

    Id rather the 2000s....specifically 2000 to 2006.

    90s cartoons yes. But nah. Documentaries out now > the ones in 90s. Having History Channel, National Geographic, TLC, Discovery Channel and A&E trumps anything from the 90s. Not to mention I can watch all those docs ONLINE WHENEVER I WANT and not have to wait for a rerun or video tape?? YA BRUH

    Those channels weren't available prior to 2000?

    Technology? yes

    Overall entertainment? No.

    Not just cartoons. Music, Movies, Sports, Recreation, Schools. Plus I wasn't an adult and being a kid trumps being an adult. I had more fun.

    90's>>>>>>00's

    I say the 90's b/c that was the time I growing up in my teens. The quality in music was very good back then it didn't matter if it was Hip-Hop or R&B just about every song or album was on point the radio stations wasn't playing a bunch of ? across the airwaves. Cartoons had alot of variety in them back then and the weekend line up for cartoons and shows were GOAT. Video Games had lasting replay value even though the graphics were getting better every time a new system came on the market.

    The 2000's as far as technology goes is superior to the 90's and that's it everything else was disposable.

    But why cant you have both. Personally I think the early 2000s were just as good as the 90s (movies, music, entertainment wise). The fact that technology was beginning to boom puts it over for me. And I'm an 80s baby.

    You can only make that argument for maybe the first 3 years, after that it took a nosedive

    I figured you would pick the 2000s. Reason? Technology Advancements?
