those themes songs from the 90s I like they're like they invoke instant nostalgia like you add a certain thing sitting on the couch and like just dreading getting ready to go to school not going to school because going to school was lit it was getting ready to go to school and it was like that time in between like putting on your putting on your shoes and then going through the door like that time there's something about that which is so intense for me but I remember just sitting on the couch and just watching like this show like I feel like I feel like the 90s had the best cartoons the best show the best everything like it's like as we got older I feel like we kind of grew up with the creators because they they would just keep us entertained and engage with like more fire theme songs right it's like the end of
the day I was crying and ticktock because the other day I was watching ticktock and crying because they had the theme song from in the box right and for some reason I could just remember it and tell you like the long favorite j-news my friend goodbye for now until we meet again I'll be following baby to you my friend goodbye for now until we meet again miss and great to play your thing together in the box yeah thank you so good bye say it man what like all my god like that was so lit that's a lit song or like like even other days because I follow all the 90s nostalgia like
like trying to do stuff and they even had beer in the big blue house like that was a classic being in the big blue house like oh you know like how they had hello songs and goodbye songs like let me see what was the beer in the big blue house goodbye song but I don't I think that one to me was more lit than the than the starter song very good bye goodbye good friend goodbye we're really great oh yeah the moon the house will be waiting for you to come and play to come and play like oh my god baby for the stanger that was just such a good time you know and then it's funny because it's like as
as the like as in 2000 started approaching like the song kind of started getting faster faster wait you know what which one I used to love that one was done lying and got what the lions was so good they had a good theme song too and I can't remember right now but I felt like I can't remember it only because I found it in the box the other day and I just pushed down all the other ones but they had some good ones and do you guys remember sagwa oh or like like when they put a game faster like cyber jace were moving we'll be inaccurate that their game don't worry about cyber and my little boy will get you in the like y'all I don't I don't know what this is but like getting high off and I mean the soldier is
hilarious right or like you know you know what's what happened you know chokehold chokehold chokehold chokehold um dragon tails a dragon tails is almost part of a dragon tails come take my hand let's all go to dragon land there's four keep the figures in the room it's all good catchy so short but so very small exactly easy no exactly we these some of the something because you know two heads of men and one dragon tail dragon tail like oh my god unlocks my new this soldier that's crazy I see by a lot of people call me childish I see why guys you know why I still have the heart of a child but it's different since you have in the heart of a child being immature is old in decision making it's only your decision making
if you are well informed adult you should be making mature decisions but if you just like part two and you know like to pop on with toys or to play half-scat when you see it or jump a little boy do a little dance there's not that series to classify that as childish right you'll hate a reader and a fun fun parade destroy it let me see what the food someone will be had cyberchase is having you know chokehold I can't stop hearing it in my mind you know she didn't wish she would use the love though like literally would cry when that show went off remember Molly bro the big comfy couch yeah chokehold like I used to agree crying like what like when it was time for her to leave and she used to tickle the tickle the
clapping of floor just to say that it was time to go and then Molly so we read not her head yes no and I don't even like clowns but that show was so good so good and I would like to like acknowledge how mr. Rogers totally prepared us for all the sick coven that we're gonna come you know as we got older like family matters and here are the bill cards we showed like mr. Rogers really prepared us for that because it wasn't like it was not much animation enough in popping off but it was like puppets and stuff but it was still very serious and I like how the 90s stuff used to offer a lot of like moral truth like they would teach you a lesson like even like in the 2000s let's say up until like 2004 or five like especially like you know ironically they used to call me that's already but I feel like even that's so raven like she reduced stuff or like stuff would
be happening and there would be like a more thing behind it you know like even in the Amanda show it was funny and silly but like I still had a lot to offer you know or even like kingdom and care like all those shows had things to offer enough like that's why my generation like we're gonna be like we are because we're older now but I think that's a real like really really great leaders like really understanding you know most of us are filled with morality and you know just like just filled with like this great humanism in a sense just because of the fact that like our childhood what we were watching was just so much more valuable like it offered a lot of value a lot of enrichment especially socially emotionally um by year like it was just a really good time it was an extremely good time and I think that it I think that a lot of us hold on to you know
the 90s in our cartoon I think that we hold on to it more than any other generation held on to their childhood I think it's because it was so good for us and also I think because the world was going through like extreme changes at the time like you know in 94 they were introducing computers right that that was a brand new thing they was still working on with beepers and cell phones and stuff right so like actually have a computer and then the first iPhone had came out like not to not too many years after that so everything was just different you know but like I said they had our childhood our adolescent years like everything but they had us in a chokehold even like shows like Sabrina like Sabrina the teenage rich like the cartoon one and um and the sitcom it was like like like what like do do do do do do do do like when you hit that popping off you know it's time to sit down and watch Salem and and Sabrina all of them like you just already knew
what was up and guess what I just remembered come in between the lions begin between the lions 90s chokehold it's just super crazy or honestly the one that I used to like as I got older was definitely the all that all that one like oh oh oh this is all that this is all that like just such a good time it's a really good time you know I think the 90s was the best the best music and it's not for like it's not for us to live in the past of course but I think when the past is so valuable as the 90s like even regards to like
social things that were happening like you know things like police brutality you know racism um classes um a lot of those big huge cases that were going on in the 90s like even as children it's like we were young enough to understand what was going on and I feel like the the shows and things that we were watching it wasn't pushing that down our throat like it was still keeping us like like there was a clear distinction between adult problems and children problems and I feel like that's something that like you know when we watch TV today we just don't really understand like like damn like I really push in this stuff down they throw it's you know like I really got agendas and stuff and it's not to say that like the cartoons and stuff was perfect because of course you know the other day we watch in Lion King on TikTok and they showed us some wild stuff we like wait what I didn't see that I didn't know that occurred right in my face right underneath my nose right but it did and I think that again it
just goes to show like we just was really kids like we was really kids you know and you know it's unfortunate you know some some stuff happened I'm gonna try to take us off our path or whatever but I think that the 90s was just very fulfilling it was very fulfilling I think that it was really the standard for family like seeing how family is supposed to operate like especially with shows like family matters like whatever happened to something something something the milkman the paperboy even and TV everywhere you look everywhere there's a heart I need hold on to or even like full house like full house was good like all these all I'm telling all these shows were so good I think it's because like they just and all the families like they may have looked new clear but they were really very diverse like it was it was like always extended family members around um it's just really
good like they just did it really good they did it really good and like I said we're just filled with lessons you know like lessons to learn like about life and experiences and relationships and you know just they they they they really out the day so they out the day so and I think it's up to this like this new generation to kind of reflect or I feel like that's what I like the 90s so much too and like obsessed with Y2K I think it's because Y2K is their year like you see like how we are obsessed with the 90s right and most of us was born in the 90s or like late 80s but for them they're obsessed with Y2K right they're obsessed with early early 2000s even though they were born in that year why because there was a lot of culture you know like a lot of uh you know like a little sprinkle of of the culture from the 90s and Y2K and it's after Y2K things just started getting crazy like morals values went away like for example I didn't even know that one of the reasons why
M&M is so so much of a staple especially for 90s and you know 2000s generation is because he was the one remember remember in his one of his songs he said and the FCC won't let me be right I didn't even know what the FCC was uh until he did that song and he actually made them change like they change a certain law for the TV where you know it used to be prohibited to show certain things so for example if you ever seen like the Nelly tip drill video whatever those videos used to be like not appropriate for TV at all so they used to either edit it or just not play it at all like Nelly used to get in trouble like crazy but when M&M came you know and of course we can make those distinctions that this is about uh that this is about color or race or you know whatever of course we could but I just think it was about the fact that they were trying to show us like you know this next and upcoming generation is going to have just way more freedom you know and that's why
I think they are called uh or they call themselves some of them liberals right like to be liberated to be free but there's a course that comes with that liberation right because it's like it's so much freedom that there's no there's no uh inhibitions right like there's nothing that's going to kind of stop it or put a cap on the madness so yeah like there used to be a lot of protocols that certain shows movies songs they couldn't show certain things they couldn't promote certain things because it was inappropriate for TV and I find it very interesting that it just died off after the 90s right like I didn't know that in the I think it was the 40s or the 50s the men and women used to be like they never even used to be able to be in the same bed together on TV that was like I didn't know brainer like that was like a hell no we're not doing that right so like the
men used to have their own separate beds and the women will have their own separate beds because of you know these these uh media media laws and regulations so I just think that like all those things matter you know I feel like now it's like all those laws and regulations didn't went away and I knew they went away once I've seen what look look it was some video that I've seen and I've seen maybe maybe with Cisco could have been Cisco or something like that and I was just like oh yeah it's a wrap like it's a wrap for that right um but yeah just crazy crazy 90s nostalgia man like just really a good era I feel like a lot of us from the 90s are just inborn OG is like it don't even matter if you're turning like 30 33 35 you know like 38 like whatever your age is like if you were born in the 90s bro you were OG like you really got the best of both worlds you got the
structure of the 80s because the 80s did have a little structure even though the 80s was a little wild because it old like the stuff that was being pushed at them it was still some type of family values and type of family structure that was passed down and I think we still got like that but then we got like a little taste of freedom that was gonna come with the you know 2000s and we just kind of got squash in the middle of it but yeah this is just only about nothing this is just totally about nothing but just like a you know a reflection of like I said you know just a really good time it was a really really great time and uh yeah I think we are like I said the generation that is really just obsessed with our birth arrow and that's how you know it was good
