What should I do next?🤷♂️
The 80's maybe?
The 70's!
Stand up comedy hehe
The 2000s. The beginning of the internet, GSM cell phones, movies on DVDs...
Build helms deep and dress up as an Uruk-Hai
There was this feeling of fun and excitement that the 90's really seemed to capture. I miss those feelings.
The 90s buzz was so much fun. The attitude was, hey its the 90's yahoo!!!
Agreed. The 90's were full of anticipation and excitement for what the future could bring. As a teen (born in 1983), we honestly felt that technology would be able to help us do anything in the future and that the world would get better as a result. So much optimism and not division.
I was born in 88 so raised in the 90s my first job payed 5.40
The technology in the 90s was good, but not too good, and didn't enslave us like it does today
I was in high school from 1990 - 1994 and I can honestly say the 90's were a great time to be alive. Don't get me wrong, the 80's were great too. However, the 90's had a special blend of technology and old school ways that no other decade had. Home computers and the internet started taking off in late 1993 and by 1995 about half the people you knew had a computer in their home and if they didn't they could easily call a friend and get access to one. Video games and the internet were thriving and becoming better and better everyday. I got my 1st cell phone in 1994. With all that said and with all the advancements with the technology at that time, we hadn't got to the point of letting the technology take over us like in today's world. This is probably because the internet and computers were still viewed as something that wasn't a necessity and was still novel. And of course smartphones were still year's away. Today the internet is viewed as a necessity because the way we do everything in today's world makes it extremely difficult to get things done without the internet. Everything from paying bills to renewing the tags for your car is done through apps or online now. There is a lot of nostalgia for the 1990's, but I honestly think it's for good reason. Can anyone think of any other decade where we had cellphones, home computers, and the internet, but society was still social in real life and humble?? I can't
I went to HS in those same years also and your absolutely right!
I mean 2000s were the same for me. I didn't get a touch screen phone till 2013. I wasn't a slave to the internet. I even drove to Florida from NY and back alone at 18 in 2004 with an Atlas.
The reason we still lived in the real world is because, while computers and internet existed, it was super slow and inconvenient. And all that was available for non-nerd types was Oregon Trail, virus ridden porn sites, and AOL. 😂
the production quality on this is INSANE
Great video. I’m a 36 y.o. veteran, dying from a neuro-autoimmune disease. I lament for the 90s and just days of promise and more simplicity. My mom was still alive too. What I would give…
I really thought you were a huge youtuber while watching this video, keep up the good work dude!
IKR?? I just subbed.
Same!! I did a double take when I saw his subs in the 8k range. Thought for sure he was well in the millions! This was fantastic..he got my sub!
I pranked my mom on Y2K, I waited for the ball to drop and pulled the circuit box, and got her good.
only 1000 years to do it again lmao 🤣
@@gaming53wishmaster71 lol
funny
Prank of the Millenium
Hahahaha epic
Dude that painting was pretty darn good for your first try I'm impressed.
That’s what I was gonna say! Bob Ross sold video tapes to follow along with. But I think his real appeal was watching HIM paint with that unique personality
I'm 37 so basically my entire childhood into my pre-teen years took place in the 90s. Times felt simpler only because we were kids back then. I'm sure the adults of the 90s had a much different perspective. Your grandparents "don't remember much about the 90s" because it wasn't their golden years like it was for Millennials. For them it was just another decade.
Back in the 90s, I remember there was a lot of 50s and 60s nostalgia. Tons of hippie and disco references in tv shows, modern remakes of old cartoons and tv shows, etc. Today, it's all about 90s and 2000s nostalgia and now that Millenials are in their 30s and presumably involved in media and marketing jobs, we've done away with the 50s and 60s stuff and replaced it with 90s nostalgia.
It's just a cycle every generation goes through. We just miss our childhood era.
I bet you by the time Gen Alpha becomes adults, nobody is going to even think twice about anything before 2010.
I think you're quite right on this. I always thought that this was just a repetitive emotionnal/affective bias that every generation reproduce. Yet, I don't feel concerned because I really think that the things get more and more positive (contrary to a widely held idea) so even if there are still so much problems and issues to solve, I think our society is showing a lot of signs of an overall progress in the state of minds. And we also experience that with a huge technological progress (I'm talking about the usefull one) and a a spiritual awakening that is on the rise.
So I don't feel nostalgic. In the 2000's and even the begining of the 2010's, it was still a very materialistic world with no real intention to create a more resilient and introspective lifestyle AND without such usefull techological tools that facilitate our tasks in the daily life. So no nostalgy for me, except maybe for the better reliability of the cars and for old good memories here and there.
Yeah, i'm 39 so I feel you and 100% agree.. It cracks me up when people around my age talk about how horrible things are or the movies and music suck etc etc.. Literally every single thing my Dad talked about being shitty was great to us and no surprise his Dad was EXACTLY the same as well in there respective era's.. No shit Mainstream music isn't going to be geared towards late 30's to early 40's grown ass adults haha.. There's still endless great music and movies being made for us to like for the most part you just have to dig a bit deeper but nothing will ever quite match the 80's to early 2000's Music and Movies especially considering we have an unmovable crater sized nostalgic bubble over it all. If I could still just hang out with Friends, not worry about Work, eat and drink anything and everything I wanted etc. etc. with zero repercussions i'd probably be loving the current era way more as well. I never understood how this is so difficult for most to grasp.
I'm 50 now. So I grew up my young adult life in the 90s. I think it was the best era for me. I was right into computers then. Remember Duke nukem 3D, that was huge when it came out. Now I hear young people say " The 90s was back in the olden days" lol. Just sempt like yesterday.
I was born 1970 and no matter what era you remember best, we all have fond memories and memories we would prefer to forget. Fun video.
The 20s will not be better than the 90s. we're already half way through and look at the absolute state of it haha.
Awesome video man. You tried and did a pretty good job. Maybe if we all did it at once it could work!
It’s weird to me to think of referring to the 20’s in the future sense. When I hear “the 20’s” I always think of the 1920’s when my grandparents were born
I do miss the 90s almost everyday.
As a 2000’s kid, I want to try living like the 90s now! 😃
It was a great time to be young ❤ Good times.
I was a Senior in High School in 1996 and I can tell you, the 90's were exactly what we thought they were, AMAZING! Dating back then was pure awesome. TV was great. Games were great. Movies were the best. Hell, I loved the 80's but the 90's were my "life". Blair Witch, yea, saw that a few times in the theater! Man what a decade. Great vid btw.
I was born in 83
And yea da 90s was hella decade to live in
& I’m glad I was part of it
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@MrLa1983 86 here, best time of our lives, power rangers, ring pops, no social media, legos and tv where ur show aired once a week and if u missed it well FUCK YOU! Good times
I miss the 90s , best decade ever,
that painting is wonderful. the impression I got from bob was there is no right or wrong when it comes to painting. do what you think is right and never be afraid to put some happy little trees and bushes everywhere
The Last Great Decade.
In the 90's and before, you arranged a time and place to meet. You had a lifestyle that meant no last minute changes because you know it wasn't possible to tell anyone that you have changed it. Pagers weren't that common. Only Drs and people like that had them. 90's are easy to live: I've pretty much never left them. No mobile phone, still buy CDs (no streaming!), still use paper maps when going to new long distant places, pay cash for everything. Especially of you enjoy analogue hobbies like painting!
😅😂🤣 I laughed so hard during the painting 😂😂😂
Dude I sucked using those map books!
Let’s bring the best parts of the 90’s to the present!
Damn this is my second video after watching the dunking one, and I gotta say despite the lack of views you got some very original and well planned ideas. Your videos are very entertaining and engaging, hope you find more success in the future which you will if you keep this up
Who still thinks the 4:3 is still the better format for filming and photographs, give a thumbs up, please.
Yep
sometimes. i use several formats
Absolutely! Do I get bonus points for writing this from a modern computer hooked up to an old 4:3 monitor? 🙂
@@sebastianp.279 Nah, I did the same. With modern adapters the g o 4:3 VGA can easily be combined with the normal GTX 1060. The real question is: Why you have a 4:3 at home? For me it is because working with the view of video cutting software is much easier on a 4:3 ratio and a second 16:9 next to it.
@@FrauWNiemand I never understood the need for screen width, it doesn't make sense. Our workflows usually require us to scroll top-down; like scrolling through a website or a word document. If you think about it, monitors should be higher instead of broader, shouldn't they?
So I use my 4:3 because it gets the job done. Why would I throw out a perfectly working monitor to replace it with something that wouldn't do things any better?
Man, I was a teenager in the 90s and the one thing I can say is not true is people just showing up at your friends houses. We would always call first on the phone, at least where I grew up. Same goes with meeting up with people. We would usually call right before we left to say we're on our way, so there would be no chance of standing people up. I never had a pager and never had an issue personally. Also, we would usually ask for detailed directions to where we're going and use the maps as a backup. It's so funny how much trust we put into our friends to give us good directions! Phenomenal video man.
Nah we would 'knock on' where u showed up, knocked the door and asked their parents if they could play out, so totally true, you might not have had that but our little community sure did! And the parents ALWAYS knew where we were, miss that
Most my friends lived on same road
AKA dead end road
So for me it was no trouble to go to friends houses & I pretty much knew if they were home or not
I didn’t even have to call them I just showed up
1 friend lived next door
1 friend lived cuple house from me
The other 2 lived at end of street
My neighbor hood was family road
Aka aunts uncles grandparents of my friend lived on same street & nother family set lived on my street then my neighbor cross road it was her & her family livin bhind her
So yea my dead end road was a little village of sorts
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
But I do miss my days in da 90s livin on dat street
And da friends I grew up with on dat street are still friends/associates
Even da family members I’m still friends/associates wit
We aka all us neighbors considered each other as family members I’m some kind of way cause we all looked out for each other
I’m assuming they were talking more about kids in bicycles doing that.
In the 80's "calling for" your friends, aka showing up at their house to ask them to come out, was definitely more of a thing. Adults would "drop by," like for tea or something. I think that culture had started to fade in the 90's and people mostly called first. Then again, living in a small neighborhood with young kids, their friends would sometimes knock on our door to ask them to come outside so maybe it's more of an age thing? I don't know but I hope kids are still doing that. It was something I really loved about childhood.
Probably one of the best youtube videos I've watched in a while. Even taking recency bias out of the picture, this just hits different.
Man, I'm about a decade older than you and nostalgia has been weighing on me heavily the last few years, especially when thinking about the 90s. Your video felt fun and wholesome, that feeling I associate with childhood from that decade. Thanks for making this. I really enjoyed it.
I always love finding small channels with hidden gems like these
Great video. As a 40
Year old I recall the 90s well. I will say though, the one thing you can’t duplicate, unfortunately, is the lack of understanding of what would come next. You have perspective of how it’s different now. Dealing with a lot of stuff back then was done just in the moment. Some of it sucked looking back but at the time it was just normal. I didn’t fret about not having a smart phone as I didn’t know what that was and couldn’t have conceived of it. Internet was great but I couldn’t have understood how much better it would get. I probably spend more time now wondering how tech will evolve in the future than I ever did then.
I’m 32, and I agree with you, although you’ve got a few years on me. I think technology, specifically smart phones, have crippled us. Having all the answers to every question in our pockets, being able to call anybody we want at almost any moment, as long as there’s signal, it has ruined us. When the phones go down, or when the internet goes down, we fall apart. Our cell phones were down for two days where I live this past weekend, and my personal wifi was out as well. We about worried ourselves sick thinking if anything happens we can’t check on each other, blah blah blah. Of course nothing happened. We weren’t stranded with a vehicle breakdown. We didn’t have to suddenly google the state bird of Nebraska, nothing happened. We’re so comfortable feeling like we’re in complete control that we go to pieces when something disrupts it, and oh how easily it can be disrupted. No wonder we’re all on anxiety pills.
I'll be 44 in a few months and yeah its not quite the same as living in the moment back then. I was the class of '99 and I sure as hell didn't know that the entire word would dramatically change a couple years later with 9/11. It's like I got to have a year of adulthood before everything went to hell, friends went to war, etc.
The point he makes about his computer not being much worse than a computer now is definitely true though, everything is just incrementally slowly getting better but back then new technology was night and day better. I went from having a 1980s PC to a 1990s PC and it was just incredibly better in every way only 5 years later, now my PC is 5 years old and I don't even care.
I have to concur. We didn't need a new this/that ever 2-5 years. If it broke. It broke. But you never got a "needs firmware update " on everything.
I grew up in the 90s. Was a glorious time to be alive. Born on the cusp of the end of the 80's...learned to thrive in the 90s hahahaha. Was amazing. Thanks for these videos and the nostalgia trip. Also your grandparents are adorable hahaha
People not being able to contact me whenever for an introvert is a blessing. Now I have to turn my phone on do not disturb mode, but peoples expectations are different. It's nice to tune out and not be in constant demand.
The 80s and 90s and beginning 2000s ( 2000 to 2005 ) were the GREATEST periods in this century
i would say 1995 to 2005 was the best. even tho the 80s were great too. yes i'm THAT old lol
Early 2000s isn’t the same century as the 80s and 90s
@@9852323
Did I say they were the same century ?
Where did you read that ?
I D I O T
The 70s were quite good too.
@@9852323
When did I say they were !?!
Nitwit
You should have recorded Bob on VHS so you could pause. That's the true experience.
yep i would have totally recorded that on VHS and my painting would have been 100% worse too lol!
9:58 Your grandparents are too cute ❤! 52 years wow 😮 that is definitely a blessing, I love it!
Looking at world events and the economy after 2000 hit, maybe the ball dropping was the slow end of the world as we knew it.
Though the 90's was the start of the digital age, the 2010s was the digital age, we are now entering the surveillance age in the 20s.
These kind of things have a huge impact on how the world runs and operates and redefines the threats and dangers of harm, disruption, and destruction.
10k views?? Bro this is a great video. Deserves much more. I know a lot of effort went into this man. Killed it 💯💯
Well made, entertaining, and actually felt like a 90's movie clip. Great work.
I’m an 80s kid, was a teen and in my early 20’s in the 90’s, graduated high school in ‘94.
Watching your vid has been both incredibly fun and bittersweet. I love the 90's. I still watch Seinfeld, 3rd Rock From The Sun, Married With Children, Frasier and all the other awesome sitcoms from that time almost daily. I still play 90's games (SNES, NES & Gameboy) almost daily albeit via a retro emulation handheld (Miyoo Mini Plus) and recently I've been thinking a lot about why I struggle so much with modern life. I love my life and I love the people around me, but I feel like I don't fit in with modern media. Hearing your grandparents talk about this was great :)
Anyway, thank you so much for making this video! It makes me feel better about a part of me still remaining in the past by enjoying older media.
I thought you are a big CZcamsr and maybe I was wrong in terms of subscribers but in terms of content you are surely a tough competition for them
A new fan of you sir
Will wait for your videos from now on
Have a good day sir
Thank you for the support 🙏
Yes, TV broadcasting is and recording is still everyday reality for me. The modern recorders record in 4K, use HDD instead of tape and record multiple channels, but the main principe is still the same. I started with to use streaming platforms in 2021 and I still use them only a bit. Even in 2023, I still live without Netflix, HBO MAX and Hulu, only with satelite TV, DVDs and a few free streaming platforms.
Bro, I be watching 90's commercials on youtube, then I started editing them back into the tv shows just to get the feels. I believe each commercial break was about 1-2 mins long (maybe 2.5). Wow, we were so impatient
Dude me too I love watching 90s and 2000s commercials while I enjoy a beer it really takes u back. Good to see I ain’t the only one
@@Djdefinitionof though I can really let it take over and that’s what I don’t like. It becomes a “I wonder if I can live life as if it’s still the 90s/00s
WOW! THIS IS AMAZING! The amount of work put into it and the quality is astounding! Great work!
I was born in 82, but grew up in the 90s. It's so weird to see how old this stuff looks now when back then, it was cutting edge. It's also fascinating to see someone like you who was very young in that era, trying to recreate it. That part where you were trying to find your friend down in the basement, I actually thought you were trying to recreate the Blair Witch Project, which at that time was the hottest movie and such a new concept of that time
I was a young adult.
Wow that video was such a unique style, flowed smoothly and had great attention to detail, well researched with clever humour, great camera work and wow, it really stood out from any other video I've watched recently. Honestly.
I was born in the early-80s, and I remember living in the 90s. I dunno...something I remember about the 90s is how much people hated the 90s back then. My parents remembered the 60s and 70s kinda like how we remember the 90s now. But I had a lot of good memories of that time. I guess it's just relative.
Lol. I remember talking with a coworker, in 1998, about how much the 90s suck, and how it will never be thought of as the good old days. We were reminiscing about the 80s.
Great video! I was also born in 1994 so I have a lot of nostalgia for the 90s despite being so young then. Also your grandparents were a joy to watch recite the Oscar-mayer jingle
Man the skits in this were phenomenal! Lots of dedication to recreate the 90s, great work man 🔥
This video is made so well! I love the idea and the music that played occasionally was great :)
great video dude, enjoyable to watch, I also didn't realize how small of a creator you are!
wow, you did a really good job with this, it's got a crazy amount of detail and work put into it
I graduated in 98’ and definitely love and miss the 90’s! The 80’s were awesome too! Your video was amazing and made me tear up. Definitely bittersweet. 🦕📺❤
That 1999 Blair Witch part was great .
One of the greatest videos on CZcams 🙌🏾
Great ending. Impressive and intricately layered video for a surprisingly small channel.
This was so guud! Hehe. And dont worry about the painting dude. I think it turned out pretty well! There are no mistakes. Only happy accidents.
Oh, and you definitely deserve more subs btw!
I’m halfway thru the video and this is so much fun! Thanks Hunter
You have amazing production value!! Keep making these awesome videos!! Subscribed!
I love how much effort you put into this video
That was such a nice video, and entertaining too with the little bits in the middle, thank you 😊
Great video, I loved it! you've got the cinematic touch.
Really enjoyed this, the production value is insane. Happy to be one of the first 7.77k followers, looking forward to your superstardom!
A tip for next time, and not sure if you already did this - Bob coats his canvas with a thin coat of liquid white before every painting to create a wet working surface and he uses really thick, dry oil paint to go on top.
This was great! Keep up the great work!
dude the quality of this is so insane. well done! so cool.
I graduated high school in 99 and this brought back so many memories! Awesome video and beautifully edited too. Kudos! +1 sub also. :)
I can remember my first time using a chat room. I was beyond blown away that I was actually communicating with people from around the world.
Bro that hand grind killed me so good hahahaha love your content just found ya tonight 🙌 much love from Australia 🇦🇺
Definitely looked at your channel expecting to see it in the high 800k-1m subs, was super shocked it’s less than mine. Keep up the good work, can’t wait to see more. You’re gonna make it big.
This was amazing on every level man, great job
Awesome job on this video man. A lot of work went into making a quality and entertaining video. New sub here!
Found a new gem of a channel - loved this video
Awesome video, subscribed my man!
I didn't understand why so many people were terrified of Y2K - my gf's mom didn't let us go out that night - I went anyways, she's like "your car's gonna stop working!" - Right, because the ancient Ford EEC-IV system needs to know the date in order to properly fire the single injector with the right amount of fuel...
Awesome videos you guys . Top notch. Keep up the quality entertainment .it's well needed and appreciated. Take care y'all. 🤠🇺🇸
This was so cooooll!!! the ending almost made me tear up. What an awesome experiment.
your channel deserves much more recognition bro!!!
Man, I haven't been to Guntersville since the 90s. Good video. Liked and subbed for nostalgia, idea, and execution.
I was 20 when the 90’s ended. Gen X forever!
This was a badass video.
Great job
the quality of this video was so good, that i was shocked to see how little likes and views it had, keep up the great work man.
That was awesome that people just showed up, sometimes you were doing something and a friend show up and share it with him/her, then another friend show up and we had fun, then we all had the idea to go for munchies, we sometimes find another friend and went to a park or visit another friend, then go somewhere else, sometimes one had to go, it was the back and forth of friends in the 90s.
Great video. Subscribed.
Love the video!
super entertaining dude! I really enjoyed that!
Thank you🙌
life is what you make it...brilliant, dude, cool video
WOW. This video was fantastic. Truly a work of art sir.
this is very underrated, this video is amazing keep up the videos dude.
my childhood 😄 amazing video, dude!!!
I love your painting!❤
That painting segment had me laughing in tears. Great stuff.
This video was lots of fun. I was a teen at the end of the 90s. It was a good time to be a kid in the States. You have great comedic timing and earned a subscription from this "90's kid."
Your painting is actually bloody awesome!
Professional video I hope you get lots of subscribers soon
LOOOOL
When they invent time travel a lot of people will go back to live in those days and STAY there because for a lot of people back then was WAY better than the hell of today.
The most underrated video ever. I watched the whole video and i was like alright yeah this surely has million views. 38K VIEWS IN 8 MONTHS.
really good video bro. the production and the big effort you put in this video is just slept on. got my like tho
I finished high school in 1990, went to uni, got my first professional job, got married in 1997, moved out of home, got my first car, for me, it was a great time. Yes, in that decade I obviously had some bad moments, some really bad moments, but overall it was a pivotal decade of my life. A time when we of Gen X were growing up and entering the world, a time of seeing the beginning of technology taken for granted today, and whilst I have no desire to go back there (other than to be in my 20s again hah), I'm glad to have lived through it all.
The only problem with "experiments" like this is that you can't re-create the social aspect of this, which is a huge part of what makes each era what it is. Unless you get like 4 or 5 friends in on this to do the same thing, all you can really do is hang around by yourself, but even then, that's just a hand full of people.
Loved the fake commercials in this haha.
You cannot recreate an era.
Enjoyable video man! Keep at it! I actually thought the painting was impressive too
This might sound really weird - and heck, it even sounds weird to me,
But when everything on TV was scheduled, at a certain time - there was something exciting about anticipating it.
On Saturday at 10 minutes to 8:00, Back to The Future is about to play. I'd have a buddy over there. We'd have talked on the phone, maybe an hour ago, from a phone attached to the wall, with a long cord (back then, that detail meant nothing, and I'd argue, still doesn't, but just re-creating the scene). Debating who should go to whose place. Whatever.
Then he'd be over, and we'd just be excited. Not crazy excited, or anything. Just excited to watch the show, and it'd be playing in 10 minutes. I may have watched it many times already, but it's a favorite and who cares, it's on, and we love it. We'd endured another week of school. Exhausted from mundane junk. Looking forward to the movie all week.
Joking about how stupid the commercials were. Just laughing, anticipating. Then the moment of truth, right on the hour - the suddenly the movie intro would start and the epic entrance music started to play. An event. Yeah!! 2 hours of tied-to-your-seat movie experience on your own couch.
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate playing a movie anytime (and that's still crazy you can do that with virtually any movie now). But playing a movie like an event coming up, it was pretty darn fun and the anticipation made it more so.
I was a long-haul truck driver in the late 1980's and early 1990's. I can relate to a paper road atlas and pay phones. Not that difficult if those are the only tools you have; you just have to plan ahead. Less opportunities to sit on your butt and do nothing.
Growing up in the 80's & 90's was fun.
This was awesome ! The Chevy commercial 🤣🤙🏾✨
