ATTENTION all those who are 25-32 years of age... PLEASE!!!!


For all those who are 25-32, I am in need of your assistance...


I am a person who does not have the knowledge of the culuture you grew up in at a certain time, that time being 1990-1998.

What am I asking:
I am currently doing a project that requires some understanding of the differences for culture of that time, specifically with respect to language. What I would like if you could, is tell me any and everything that was different or that happened in this time period in language. What kind of slang did you use, what did people often say, words, phrases, what did they quote. What would you do to insult a person, at the age of 14,15,16,17,18... In what words would express different feelings towards another, the most opvious being insults or anger. Ex: Today's culture, if someone got their ass handed to them someone might say "Owned" or even "pwned", what would you say instead back then.

I am desperate to understand the language, specifially the slang and common interaction language that people of this age used at this time, tell me what you did personally, what you remmber your friends did, or even what was a generally understood practice for language...

This would be a great great help, I welcome any form or amount of contribution...

Thank You!!

P.S. If you could also list what your favorite shows, films, or bands were at what time in your life, that would be amazing. Ex. When I was 17 I watched Rocko, Doug, listened to Weezer, Nirvana, Beck, and Collective Soul, and I loved Clerks, Pulp Fiction, and Se7en. Just an example~


Normality is incredibly weird.
