I hate it. Tear it down. There are people in third world countries who don’t even have rooms and you’ve used this whole room up for a joke? “I’m sorry about your dysentery but check out these mint condition Popples!” No. Nostalgia is for the weak. “What are they saying?” “Rise.” RISE UP OUT OF THIS 90S ROOM NOSTALGIA PRISON AND SAVE GOTHAM! (Via Neatorama.)

Just wait until Diddy comes and ruins it all.
You mean Puff Daddy?
Ayo I respect the Game Genie but you do not need that shit for Sonic, that is weak that game was mad fun and easy on it’s own.
Depends; which Sonic is it?
It seems he has Sonic 1 through Sonic and Knuckles through the Game Genie.
Sonic 1 was the worst Sonic. What a poor decision!
It’s true! You can’t even spin-dash!
I know! I tried playing it ONCE, and I kept dying because I kept trying to spin dash and it didn’t work. And I didn’t even have a Tails to take my frustration out on. Pass!
sonic is lame and hasnt had a good game since the whig party was around
sly cooper>>>>>>>>sonic the lamehog (<-implying he hogs all the lame)
While we can all agree that Sonic jumped the shark when he went 3D, and that buy the time he starting swordfighting and stealing cars he was just in his own leage of awfulness, two of the first three games plus Sonic & Knuckles were pretty great.
Some of us developed our mad skillz on Sonic 1 and as such, will murder any and all subsequent Sonic games. They’re called fundamentals for a reason. I think if I had to face off against death in a battle for my soul, I would play him in a sonic game and I would do it with one hand tied behind my back and when I was done he’d probably give me his soul, because isn’t that part of the deal? Why the hell am I the only one with a vested interest in this faceoff?!
I think the devil gives you a golden game controller, with a bootleg rumble pack
Also so ’90s: no ladies in his room.
Hey Chicago Monsters! Do yourselves a favor and turn on 101.1. I don’t when the format switched from “FM Talk” to whatever is happening now, but it is glorious and hilarious.
C+C Music Factory, Right Said Fred, Dee Lite, Warrant, Coolio, Destiny’s Child, The Thong Song!
i thought they were going to “adult contemporary hits”? either way, my radio dial [as rarely as i use it] stays on XRT.
ESPN 1000 or NPR, no music in my car unless it’s from an mp3 player or spotify.
Also, you guys should come to this. https://www.facebook.com/events/473770555968165/ tell your monster friends.
i am partial to WBEZ as well on occasion…but i cannot for the life of me stand sports talk radio.
It’s kind of super hoaky but where else am I going to speculate about millionaires’ contracts?
XRT is definitely the best Chicago radio station. But the current 101.1 format is like an XRT 90s Saturday morning flashback all the time. Except XRT flashbacks include Tori Amos.
Have you listened to 87.7? It is the new Q101. Not as good as XRT, but they play Black Keys, Florence + the Machine, etc.
Oh man, I gotta check out the 101.1 switch, I hadn’t heard about anything happening to that. The news format was for crazy people for real.
XRT seems like nothing but DadRock to me. I’m glad that 87.7 isn’t playing Red Hot Chili Peppers every hour on the hour anymore, but the bad thing is, they replaced that with 311. The good thing is, they replaced it with 311.
Yeah, when 101.1 switched to news radio, I gave it a few chances, but holy shit, the reporters/announcers were so terrible. And it always sounded like they were recording with a tin can filter on everything. I don’t mind talk radio, but that was awful.
Hey hey hey! This is Videogum, not Stereogum! Or Chicagum! Stereochicagum?
You, sir, have the manners of a Sconnie.
Fuck you. You people drive like shit.
Oh, I haven’t lived there in forever years? Well, I still hate the phrase Sconnie. Goddamn FIBs.
Looks like Wisconsin has an anger problem…that’s why we beat them at football nearly half the time.
I don’t know what you are talking about. Not because I’m noticeably drunk in the morning but because you are discussing sports.
Well, football’s not really my thing. After all, what kind of civilized person would play a game with the skin of an innocent pig?
Excellent use of The Simpsons, Mr. Trash. Excellent. (Like Mr. Burns)
Let’s end this truce over a bowl of gazpacho. It’s tomato soup served ice cold!! (Fully aware this is from a different episode. I am very very
drunktired.)q101 could be the thriving, amazing, ‘cutting-edge’ station that it was in the 90s had it evolved with the times. It stopped progressing in 1998 and sadly forever remained the radio station for over-weight west-suburban 8th graders.
XRT is not dad rock, but i see how it gets that tag. they play and unswayed by trends, they have always played just great music, from almost every genre and era.
his profanity-laced language, however, remains very 2012.
Is it me or were half of those items from the 80s? Or is there a loophole where being into retro 80s stuff is totally 90s?

Also, this wasn’t a reply. Oh well!
Reminds me of the homecoming parade for my college… one year the theme was “The 80s,” and the next year the theme was “The 90s,” and they had almost entirely the same floats. Mario Bros., Ninja Turtles, etc.
Super Mario Bros came out in 1985, along with most of the other NES cartridges in the video. He’d have been better off having Super Mario World / SNES games. Not that a lot of people didn’t still have their NES’s hooked up through the 90s, but what’s the point of having a showcase of things from the 90s and then including a bunch of crap from the 80s?
Also, only idiots act like it’s crazy that people used film cameras and magnifying glasses. Those are still totally things.
Try saying “fucking flux capacitor” five times fast!
I can’t think of a scenario why this room still exists. Perhaps a 12 year old died and the parents have been too distraught to even go in the room in which case the narrator is acting callously upbeat.
Looks like someone (Gabe) is just jealous he lost his prized pog collection.
Not enough Beanie Babies.
Cant wait to see this on 9GAG.
Where’s the well-worn copy of In Utero and the diary filled with bad poetry and drawings of fetuses?
