Why do ppl forget/hate the '90s???

Seriously. I grew up as a teen in the 90s, and I LOVED it: the sophistication (a nice break from the tacky 80s), the alternative and hip hop music, the cool irony of young people, the awesome movies...

Why is this decade the least respected and paid attention to? It's already 2009, and ppl still don't mention much about it. (And no, it's NOT too early, cuz in 1999 the 80s were already a strong nostalgic period we often reflected on!!).

It wasn't as flashy as the tacky 80s or as wild as the swingin 70s, but I'm sure now that the 00's are coming to a CRASHING end (boo hoo, this d*mn recession!), ppl will at least appreciate the 90s for it's prosperity and relative safety in comparison to this DUD of a decade (00s).
