Lucky is the man who does not secretly believe that every possibility is open to him. Ask me about the Victorians
No, I am not going to start calling home runs "pumps," sorry. If we're short on euphemisms just dig back into the archives and find some other names we stopped using. 30 circuit clouts
I have a soft spot for the cloud cars because there's something wrong with me but you have to go pre-facelift convertible or Plymouth Breeze Expresso
This kind. Not famous for its reliability, desirability, resale value, etc
Getting to the point where old forum posts sometimes sound like those hyperliterate letters recent one-room schoolhouse graduates sent to their wives during the Civil War
20-year-old subject line in a menswear forum pioneering the AI Summary writing style
Going 110 mph in a train in the United States of America. People who deny that Springfield Illinois is the greatest city in the world have no answer to this
Can't stop thinking about this thumbnail. They really captured the essence of 1990 in this one
The main event. Also they're playing the World Cup in here and what is going on with that halftime show
Day 2 of eating my way through Springfield. I'm still on Arizona time but my mom was up early enough to buy Mel-O-Cream out of the king of donuts on my behalf
I do like Compton Mackenzie but this is too late for me both in his career and in Mudie's (1927)... I want something from before they lost the ability to force the three-volume novel format onto frequently unwilling novelists. Mainly just to express my gratitude to Mudie's for doing that
Can't find any cool three-volume novels in ex-circulating-library copies on eBay, but I can still get this novelty shirt to wear when people tell me Pendennis is boring
Just learned about the Casio Loopy for the first time. Incredible look. I thought I had already seen everything that could be done in the Melted Plastic era of consumer design but this is exquisite
Unnerving AI video about how the 90s are calling you home or photo of my children eating ice cream at the mall food court four minutes ago?
This might be the single most 1990 look there is, and he's killing it
Your 1992: The breakdown of social trust in the young My 1992: Amy Grant wearing an oversized sport coat
I didn't buy this but I was fascinated to see a book of model letters published in my lifetime because that's where Richardson began with the English novel. Love the idea of novels just repeatedly evolving out of books of model letters every 100 years or so

I don't think I have it in me to actually become a CD guy but if I did I would definitely go with one of those multi-disc caddie players. (This one at the thrift store only has this guy's Country magazine left, alas)
Honestly the thing I miss the most is renting games. Highlight of my month as a kid was going to Family Video and hoping there was a plastic case behind the laminated box of the SNES game I wanted. (Or if that didn't work begging my mom to ask the kid at the counter if anyone had just returned it)
