All any junkie ever wants is more drugs. That's kind of the definition of a junkie. Says more about loving opioids than it does about the poor addict.

And probably still fully functional even today, even if it was used as an hammer for the last decade.

Yeah, I remember the days of commodore 64s. Computer a little bit slow? (heh) Slam the keyboard on the desk once or twice.
Stopped loading? Slam the keyboard. Pissed off that you lost whatever game? Slam the keyboard.

I found an original Model M in an alley several years ago in a pile of discarded computer gear. Cleaned it up nicely and used it for a while, it now sits safely in my closet. I'll grab it and start swinging it if I ever have a break-in.

Edit: I guess that keyboard is more 80s than 90s.

because i don't notice any difference at all between keyboards.

But what I do know is that I hate everyone I work with and would gladly swap my Dvorak keyboard for a clicky clacky mother fucker if I found one cheap enough.

Edit: also you can quickly and easily figure out who has to look at their fingers to type by getting a dvorak keyboard. trips up everyone and it's great. I don't have Windows set to dvorak though so it still types qwerty

But I know nerds love them, but super clicky keyboards are hyper annoying for voice chat or being in the same room with.

What you want is a keyboard with Cherry Brown mechanical keys. They give you just a touch of resistance without being quite so CLACKCLACKCLACKCLACK.

When i saw those red cups in Incredibles 2 I got a wave of nostalgia.

A very 90s thing is rewarding kids with Pizza. Read a book? Pizza! Win a baseball game, pizza! Birthday? Pizza!

There's a Hut near my house that's perfectly preserved in late 90s Nostalgium. Metal slug/Puzzle Bobble machine with weird geometry, 25 cent bubble toy machine, full salad bar /lunch buffet station, holdover tables from the late 80s.

I cry a little every time I pick up my 'za from them.

There’s a Pizza Hut here that still does the buffet and I’ve been trying to drag my boyfriend to it for like a year and half.

I just mentioned to my wife how I remember and miss Pizza Hut birthday parties.

I probably spent a few days worth of time added up. Their loving ice was the best and that arcade attached was bomb.

The dessert stuff is pretty drat yummy, depending on how much you want to visit a cardiologist or endocrinologist soon.

Oh yeah! Pizza Hut used to be an actual restaurant, and at some point they had bars if you've ever paid attention when watching The Bad News Bears (1976). I don't think we really ate at them past 1993 or so.

I think what happened is during the 80's pizzas had a big push for home delivery, I remember into the 90's there were lots of commercials about how if you didn't get your pizza in a certain time frame it was free. As the 90's rolled on, pizzas became mechanized and Pizza Hut turned away from being an actual restaurant, and became a pizza manufactorum.
