    Aero: I liked the 2010-ish design best even though I was at least 20 at the time. I just found Memphis and y2k a little goofy. Win XP or this fish glass Mac are the worst for me.

    Maybe someone who is too young to have lived in the 90s finds this novel, I don’t know.

    Someone has written it here. There was at least some techno optimism left in 2012 or so and maybe that’s the time I am nostalgic for.

    Not so much the 90s “because we had no phones” - then turn your phone off.

      I started taking graphic design classes in the mid 2ks and the amount of my brain that has been squandered making everything look like shiny candy floating in a polished plastic void is disgusting.

      Then I learned how to make everything look like it was badly spray stenciled and drug through a post industrial alley so I could really stick it to the man.
