I would like to point out that by combining Tears for Fears and a Chili's ad, Neil Cicierega sums up a lot of what it was like to live in the 80s.

While oddly "Where Is My Mom?" manages to be stereotypicaly 90s music.

@Leucrotta I mean to be fair, smash together the '80s and '00s and you get the '90s all over again.

... just with more existential terror, or in other words just the 2010s with older technology.

@Thaminga It's weird, I remember the 90s being about anxiety, but somehow still feeling better than the 80s and 2000s-present. A while back I was in a discussion where I said the 90s felt like a vacation or a good dream, only more like the vacation's a long weekend in Toledo OH or you're dreaming about finding parking, rather than spending a summer touring Europe or having nightmares.
