90 Questions About the '90s You HAVE To Ask Gen Z
Ask Gen Z about '90s terms like Marky Mark, dial-up, VCRs and more.
At some point, you've likely been driving in the car with someone belonging to a different generation than you, when suddenly, their favorite "oldie" song comes on. Maybe, you had never heard the song before. Your elder belonging to the previous generation likely went on a tangent about how popular that particular song was back in the day. Or, maybe older family members have talked about vintage household items that were once commonly used, like record players.
Undoubtedly, every generation seems to be slightly confused by the technology, products and pop culture of the previous one. But, with such an abrupt boom in both technology and the Internet over the past 20 years? The gap between Gen Z—those born between 1997 and 2012—and older generations seems larger than ever. And this list of questions about the '90s to ask Gen Z will certainly prove that!
