It was deemed that placing sharp pointing things on stools as a means of violence was in poor taste. The practice was bad enough that the government collected money from the sales of said pointy objects to aid in the prevention of such actions.
It was a tacky tack attack tack tax.

Or placed strategically on a bar stool for a tack attack.

A tack: Sharp metal pointy thing used to secure papers to a bulletin board.

Not fair lol I always talk about 90s and 00s stuff, and I guess I am more influenced by X'ers than millennials despite being a millennial myself.

SF2 - I was going to say I didn't have a console, but I did actually play SF2 on computer a fair bit. I had forgotten about it.
90210 - My sister watched it, I had no interest.
King of the Hill - I think there was something else I watched when it was on. Probably a British Comedy or a Period Drama. Plus it was on one of the channels with adds, I would always change channels during add breaks and so ended up watching the add free channels.

I'm a noughties kid if we're going by when you were a kid/teenager, but I can tell you that a lot of the 90s aesthetic carried over to the noughts as well. I know I can remember seeing Xtreme spelled exactly like that in TV commercials around '00 to '03 as well.

ziq, wearing a flannel over a threadbare thrifted knit sweater and combat boots, with an empty bag of ectocooler clenched in their fist, screams WHO KILLED LAURA PALMER!!!!!! there are zoomers everywhere. they are all flossing and doing other tiktok challenges. they don't understand the elder ziq's references but the fit is cool so they don't mind the screaming. HA I KILL ME ziq screams. the kids scream too. no one gets the reference.

I'm an early 80s baby but that means I was a teenager in the late 90s and that's what defines your tastes through the rest of your life

I guess I qualify as an adolescent of the 90s as well...though I consider myself an 80s baby. Never heard someone term by adolescents and not birth.

Cool, but no arcades anywhere in, I believe, thousand kilometers in my childhood...

Gaming died with the arcades as far as I'm concerned. Modern games are just jobs. Training for the gig economy.

except they hate lgbtq people of course
