Vintage ’90s

It’s a sad day for me. This site was my baby. For over a year now, we’ve enjoyed some funny memories of the ‘90s, but unfortunately, I need to say “goodbye” to this blog.

What happened?!?

There were a lot of factors playing into this decision, but the main one is that the site became a chore. My intention was to build a community around this site and that just didn’t happen. The numbers are still laughably low. My approach to running this site was very amateur, and it showed. I was disorganized and unprepared.

Plus, since it became a chore, the humor became forced. I can’t write funny stuff when I’m forcing myself to do it. It just doesn’t happen for me. Most successful humor sites have staffs. I don’t.

So now where am I supposed to go for my ‘90s fix?

There are a couple of different great options for you:

Retro Junk is a one-stop shop for articles and videos on the ‘80s and ‘90s. Unfortunately, the articles are submitted by users, so the quality runs from really funny to painfully awful. But they will bring back memories for you. The real great part about Retro Junk is its video section – commercials, TV bumpers, and television opening themes are all there to waste your time!

The second option is to follow me on Facebook: just do a search for “Tom Meitner” in Milwaukee, WI. If you’re not friends with me already (and most of you are), just add me and I’ll be happy to welcome you. I still spend time reminiscing about the ‘90s, and I will be posting videos and articles to my Facebook profile for people to enjoy, so keep your eyes peeled there! I will also be putting together a little playlist with ‘90s songs for you all to listen to on there as well.

What about your awesome writing? Now what do I do?

First, thanks for the kind words. My newest project is The Practical Nerd, a site aimed at helping people improve and enjoy their lives better. It is already much more popular than this site ever was, and it continues to climb. Head over there, sign up for my free newsletter (and get your free ebook!) and enjoy the content there. You can also follow me on Twitter if you would like.

Thank you to all of you for your support over the past year. I’m sorry it has to end this way, but I will see you all on Facebook!
