We were IN high school together, but you were an upper classman when I was just a freshie.
Same - though I was a townie at that point, having graduated and found a job in my college town.
As did mine....as an adult, in my own apartment.
I briefly dated a girl who had the prize Guts Aggro Craig piece in her dorm room.
That was the coolest part about her.

More 90's stuff
Why did everyone need a pager?

Jr, High & College all wrapped up in one badass decade.
Ten years of college. Impressive.
You missed the second line: Went to college in '93. 10 semesters (I think) Math is hard mmmkay
My wife was the 10 year college person
Admittedly, most of my exposure to 311 was in the early 2000s. Probably Soundsystem at the end of 99 forward.
react. You have been randomly selected for 30 days of 311 quotes.My emoji really had more to do with the guys back then who were very into 311. They were definitely the “hey, it’s super dry out here this week, so it’s gonna have to be $70 for the eighth” kinda dudes.
I had a friend in high school that had one of those.
He was a gigantic kid on the football team who happened to be Jewish so they put him on Guts International under Israel.
Dude was from Pembroke Pines, I didn't get it, lol.
Porn in the 90s was way better, agreed.
not nearly as much...mostly singing
Doug Martinez (whiny rap guy) comes in around the 1:55 min mark in this song for example:
And he kicks things off in this song:
90s movie highlights definitely include riding my bike to Blockbuster and renting every movie they would allow.
Another "memorable" one was seeing American Pie in theaters with my step-grandmother. Neither of us had any idea what we were getting into. The next day I went to the Warped Tour in Orlando, so I'd say it was a pretty badass weekend.
Don't slander sun tea, it's delicious.
95-98 music was pretty much just these for me...although I don't much remember good fight or bridge nine. I'd also throw in in Hopeless Records.
I remember getting an Epitaph records catalog in like 93-94, and my xmas gift from my parents that year was like 12 CDs from said catalog.

They were also the kind of dudes who, if you traded bootlegs with them, did 2-for-1s*, rather than blanks & postage^. Dick move.
*for those not hip to the parlance of the times, a 2-for-1 was a bootleg swap where you'd have to send two blanks (tapes or CDs) for every one they'd send back. So if you were trading for a show that was 2 tapes, you'd send 4, and the person making the copy for you would keep 2 free blanks. 311 bros were always saying P.L.U.R. (peace, love, unity, respect
), but making someone "pay" you for copying a bootleg is not very peace or respect, IMO. They were the shitlords of bootleg trading, if you will.^blanks & postage (or B&Ps), were where you'd just send the appropriate number of blanks, along with a postage-paid return envelope. This was the common method in Phish, Dead, and most jamband trades. Because most jam folks aren't d-bags. Most.
Also, sorry.
And also, yes, I once actively traded 311 bootlegs.
