New Year GOOD or BAD

[coalescent]

At the weekend, concern was expressed that I hadn't run a GOOD or BAD poll for a while. There was a fear that people might have gotten out of the habit of making arbitrary judgements. Hence: a new year treat for you all! Don't think, just click.

The '90s being almost two decades ago???

The 90s aren't even one decade ago yet.

Transcribed from requests at the weekend -- I believe the intent was that it's almost the last-but-one decade.

[nuttyxander]

Indeed. And to me it'll be two decades ago as soon as 1st Jan 1990 is 20 years ago, hurrah for my maths exam failing logic.

My chronological translation is simple

Thinking about all the cases of:

Pre-Internets OR societies who more or less missed all the tech and goodstuff (TM) of the 90s 'cause they were busy killing eachother or somesuch at the time.

Wow that's your baddest poll in aaaaages..

"Xakus's kicking feet disappeared. The lips of the vegetative tube squelched shut. Jelly glistened. The flaps quivered like an epileptic vulva".

Where's my AWESOME! checkbox?!

I am glad there is at least one other righthead on this post. The poll reveals a depressing amount of wrongthink.

I want a button saying 'ick', please.
And hell, I remember an MTV VJ declaring Sade by Enigma the track of the 90s. In 1991. Which is all too close to 20 years ago. Sigh.

It is an actual quote from an actual published novel, terrifyingly enough.

[ext_3059]

And i'm fairly confident it's not the worst bit.

Spaghetti hoops are vile and squidgy and covered in an allegedly tomato-based sauce which is even more disgusting than the usual run of tomato-based products. DISGUSTING.

[coalescent]

NOM NOM NOM.

[iainjclark]

NO NO NO.

A delicious recipe for you.
