A majority of people reading this are probably those who're either from the '90s, or know for a fact that the '90s were the best decade on the planet. The '90s was when life was so much better, much more calmer than it is today.

Things were cheaper, people were saner, and music was so much more awesome. Don't get me wrong, I love my life today, but I miss the '90s.

Since I can't turn back time, whenever I feel nostalgic, I watch movies and cartoons from the '90s, play my Nintendo Game Boy and visit places I used to back in the days. I genuinely feel that life is more complicated and confusing today than it was back in the '90s.

Music was on a different level, I mean come on, Aqua Girl, Savage Garden, Backstreet Boys... It was epic back then because even the lyrics made sense.

Aside from some albums, you could hum songs out loud and still not offend people around you. What do we have today?

I don't even want to get started. But I can tell you the lyrics of some songs break the laws of physics yet we hum them because the "beat is rad / dope / GOAT." smh.

This post is for those who genuinely miss the '90s. Let's bask in the glory of a worthy decade!
