1. What do you miss about 90s pop culture? Im trying to make this a tad different to the more 80s themed predecessor thread.

I was at University in the 90s and got married in the 90s so much happened. Although I believe this period is the golden age of television and films, the 90s weren’t bad at all. The xfiles, adventures of Lois and Clark, friends on TV. The all time great Jurassic Park. Silence of the Lambs. And the music, I was in a grunge band and lived them all, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins etc. Oh and Manchester United.

2. What was a bad thing about the 90s? Try not to let this one get too political.

I was struggling to think of anything but was this where GeeDubya sold metal figures with plastic arms? Because that. That is the worst.

3. Technology Question: What is your opinion on the following mantra with potential dangerous, albeit for the moment mainly theoretical technology: if we can do something, should we do it? Kind of an Isaac Asimov Question.

Clues in the question. It depends. We can kill all humans! Ooh let’s see what happens!

4. Technology Question: What piece of technology are you enjoying using or is due to be released soon that you look forward to? This can be anything from an early 90s printer to VR gaming, or anything going off in a tangent.

My phone. It’s replaced my iPod, my tablet and watch. Plus maps and in some cases it could replace my credit card, torch and laptop.
