Today’s memory of the ‘90s as a lost golden age is:

Waking up to the sun shining over the green grass on a summer day, calling in to AOL and reading Salon and Slate, playing Final Fantasy Tactics for a bit

Going to the comic book store for M:tG day (also Battletech and Netrunner and Legend of the Five Rings), waiting for a match and reading the Vertigo compilations and watching patrons buy Lady Death ceramic busts and Milo Manara compilations from the highest shelf
