Answers questioned!

1.

Hmm, what Pop culture? I missed Star Trek: TNG… it was such a thing. They did that commercial tv thing of put the first three or four episodes on during prime time/ evening… then shunt it 1130pm on a Thursday or something random. Grrr.

I miss actual Grunge, and the kind of music that became “Nu Metal” before it turned to Nu Metal… aka poop.

Korn was in that later group…

I miss the Animaniacs and Rocko’s Modern Life!

A bad thing about the 90’s ? Non-political??What about… Urgh, high school. What about … mainstream culture in Australia was obsessed with sport (still is really) and unlike these modern and enlightened times (ha!) where Nerd culture is accepted, back then expressing Nerd Fandom was a swift ticket to mockery.

I believe this one was answered… in the 90’s!

Hmm, and we all know how that went down…

Can we? Should we? What are the benefits? What do we risk? We can only try our best with what we know at the time, history will answer it later…

Technology! Where’s my hover board?!? Where’s my flying car?!?

I am impressed with where bionics are going though.

 

@dawfydd that’s the second recommendation I’ve heard about the movie, and it’s only just been released, well then.
