There's a blog out there called Things 90s Kids Realize that speaks to a certain zeitgeist of the first full decade I ever experienced. (I was born almost three years too late to fully appreciate the 1980s, but if you have ever met me you'd probably never guess.) I suggest you check it out.
Below is just a snippet of what you'll find on this web site:
I think about a world to come where the books were found by the golden ones, written in pain, written in awe by a puzzled man who questioned, "What are we here for?" All the strangers came today and it looks as though they're here to stay.
-David Bowie "Oh! You Pretty Things"

Describing Television Shows I Enjoy As If I Do Not Enjoy Them
1. Avatar: The Last Airbender
A complicated rip-off of Captain Planet and the Planeteers.
2. Big Bang Theory
Nerds... (Spoken with obvious exasperation.)
3. Dawson's Creek
That melodramatic show with the kid from The Mighty Ducks.
4. Fringe
That other melodramatic show with the kid from The Mighty Ducks.
5. How I Met Your Mother
An 'awesome' show about 'awesome' people sitting in a bar talking about how 'awesome' they are. (Spoken with a dry and unenthusiastic sarcasm.)
