    Isn't there a movie by the guys that made Dazed and Confused...but now it's about kids in the 90s?

    You're off by a decade, RK. Richard Linklater's latest film is called Everybody Wants Some, and it's set in 1980. I think he called it something like a "spiritual sequel" to Dazed and Confused.
    Fine, I'm old and those decades mush together...
    Well, they both sucked!
    The 90s less so than the 80s...we didn't have Reagan in the 90s.
    I don't know. It was kind of exciting thinking that the world was going to end in a nuclear holocaust at any moment.

    All that fun ended in the nineties.
    But we got Bush twice, we got 2 wars...the US being attacked wasn't exciting enough?
    We're not talking about the aughts yet, are we?

    I guess we are.

    Sucked. So hard.

    :confounded:
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I will say that some great art came out of the aughts! All that dread, I suppose.
