I think sometimes that with the amount of new material being created and uploaded onto the Internet every day that we'll have to just loose any proof that there was anything else ever before the Internet. But as any intrepid YouTuber' knows, there are these relics from an innocent, personal computer free youth that somehow still make it into circulation.

Does this make me happy? Is this something that I need in my life? Not at all. But it does remind me of what it felt like to be a kid. The best place to interact with pop-culture then was on TV, and the only commentary that was available to me then was by my parents, who pretty much disapproved of anything cool that kids might talk about at school. Pop culture was just confusing to me then, though, this video is still pretty confusing to me now. I didn't even start dropping culture references until high school. Didn't know how.

So if pop like this video was the main current of style and information that people subscribed to (or that was available), I felt fringe subscribing to a weird mix of southern baptist conservatism and a rejection of anything that was produced under the Clinton administration. But we lived in the south, so that shouldn't have made us fringe.

But so anyway that's why 90's nostalgia makes sense.
