In The 90s - Toys of the Nineties Index

Comments left:	Only fake goth/skater/grunge wannabes shop at Hot Topic.. Grunge was NEVER about labels, or even brand new items from stores at the mall.. If you weren't born in the 70s, you don't know squat about the 90s.. and being a little 10 year old in the 90s doesn't mean you know the 90s either, mid to late teens OK.. Grunge was the anti-label, except when it came to shoes, but it wasn't even about the label itself, it was the look of the shoe, such as Airwalks or Vanns.. it was about a shoe being able to take a lot of abuse.. which, back then, Airwalks and Vanns could, unlike today.. Most people wore grunge went to thrift shops, even vintage stuff was big with grunge when it came to the girls, especially 1960s and 1970s mini dresses and shoes.. All these kids on here that were born in the 90s, and think they know all about it, are full of it.. Especially that girl up there talking about if people want real grunge fashion go to Hot Topic.. My generation, the generation where grunge began would laugh at you, that type of laugh that triggers asthma attacks in a person that doesn't even have asthma. You're a self-righteous little girl that doesn't know what she's talking about. People talking about baggy jeans falling off people's butts and everything are confusing baggy jeans with the "style" of "sagging".. and they are NOT the same thing.. "sagging" is when the jeans are hanging off someone's butt, or showing the tops of their boxers, even people today in skinny jeans still wear their pants in the "sagging" style. Baggy jeans however, were not falling off people, they were just made with longer and much wider legs. I still have all my baggy jeans from HS, I still wear them to this very day, and they're never off my butt.. Grunge was nothing more, than a rehash of the 1960s and 1970s with a bit of Nirvana thrown in for good measure.. As most people that were into Grunge were HEAVILY into the 1960s and 1970s, when it came to fashion, the music, and even the time period and that whole sense of being free and standing up against injustice in the system.. Grunge WAS so much MORE than cheap, retard clothes from Hot Topic.. the next generation of "Grungers" totally RUINED what Grunge was about and stood for.. It's like how "Spooky Kids" "Mansonites" and "Emo" dweebs totally tainted Goth.. You're the type to list Candlebox and Bush as grunge bands.. or wouldn't be able to tell the difference between grunge and post-grunge.. Or realize that grunge only had about a 5 year stint.. So, if you're claiming to be grunge after 1995, you're full of it. Little brats took something pure and took a crap on it.. smh Do what you like, dress how you like, think how you like.. but don't use a label that doesn't even apply to what you're doing. You can't take elements from several things and call it one thing.. You can mix cheese and eggs, but a pancake you will not get.
