      That's honestly one of the things that I miss most about the 90s, going to the video store with my mom on Fridays after school. It was like our tradition when I was a kid. I would always get a movie or two as well as some video games and my mom would get a movie for her and my dad to watch over the weekend. Then, we would go home and order pizza and my best friend would usually come over and spend the night and we'd stay up all night watching movies and playing SNES games. It was a sign that the weekend was here. There was just something so magical about browsing the aisles filled with movies and video games. I think the novelty of it stemmed from the fact that you actually had to leave the house, get in the car, and travel somewhere to rent movies. There wasn't any way around it. Today, you don't even have to leave your couch or your bed to do that. There's just nothing exciting about it anymore because you know that all you have to do is hop on Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, etc. and watch practically any movie or TV show that you want without even budging. It's the same thing with photos. You used to have to buy film to take only a limited number of photos, then take the film to be developed, go back a day or two later and pick up your photos after anxiously waiting to see what your pictures looked like. Now, we all have phones with amazing quality cameras and can take as many pictures as we want whenever we want. Everything today is about instant gratification, which spoils the excitement of having to wait for results. I miss the good old days!

      It really was more the *experience* rather than the watching of the actual movie. I miss it too. There was the weekend buzz and excitement in the air, the unique smells of the video store mixed and mingled together--the smells of popcorn, carpet and something sweet like bubblegum, I recall. The feeling of browsing the cover art, plucking the ones that were the most eye-catching and had the most interesting cover blurbs. Even the movie-theatre type lights throughout the store that put you in the mind of a marquee a little bit. The whole thing was a fun experience.

    1997 - I was not on the computer... because I didn't have one. I also wasn't on a cell phone... because I didn't have one. I went out with friends way more often, I read way more books, magazines and newspapers, I went to the movies more often. Basically, I was more social than I am now. Technology is nice, but there are definitely downsides to a person like myself that can easily slip into being an introvert.

      Honestly, I think technology has made a lot of people introverts who were once very extroverted. I'm guilty of it myself. I, too, was an extremely social, outgoing person who loved to go out and loved talking to friends on the phone; however, technology has changed me. Sometimes when people call me now, I think to myself, "Why couldn't they have just texted me instead???" It's a VERY different world.

      Same here! In the 90s, if you wanted to talk to somebody, you either had to pick up the phone and call them, page them, or wait until you saw them in person. Now, all you have to do is send a totally impersonal text message or Facebook message. I remember my parents getting so annoyed with me for tying up the phone line every night when I was in middle school and high school in the 90s. They finally had to put in a second phone line so I wouldn't constantly tie up the main line by endlessly talking to my friends or wasting time in AOL chat rooms! I am just SOOOOOOOOOOOO glad that social media didn't exist when I was growing up! I can't even imagine being a kid nowadays and having to deal with all of the bullying, harassment, and humiliation that goes on via Facebook, Instagram, etc.

      @BrooklynEagle In addition to voicing Lionel Hutz and Troy McClure on The Simpsons, he was also Henry Mitchell in Dennis the Menace (1986), and Ted Maltin in Jingle All The Way. A lot of people say the decline of The Simpsons began after the death of Phil Hartman.

      Hollywood and Blockbuster especially were a few of my favorite hangouts as a kid. The weekends meant maybe a pizza and swinging by Hollywood or Blockbuster for video rentals, where I'd explore the horror movie aisle, soaking in all of the creepy and fantastic VHS cover art. Great times! It really made me sad when the last Blockbuster in my area folded. :(
