This educational music video from 1991 by the Finnish Alcohol Company provides a wonderful example of early 90s cool.
The video warns teens not to have sex while drunk, btw, as they might forget to use a condom. The chorus: "sex is fun while you're sober / when you're drunk you do it the wrong way". If I'd personally followed this maxim, I'd probably had about 60% less sex in my life.

The Most 90s Thing That Could Ever Exist
The zeitgeist summed perfectly in one technological artifact, which is a VHS promoting Windows 95 starring Jennifer Aniston and Matthew Perry.

this feel like a definitive moment in 'Cool Britannia' awfulness, exemplary in the way it manages to take things that had been vibrant and charming in previous decades (The Avengers, Suggs) and transmute them into objectionable garbage

The 90s are significantly long ago now to look very strange indeed. Any LOL WTF 00s images, or is it too soon?

Product Description'Big Breakfast' luminary Johnny Vaughan presents this compilation of brawls, tiffs and fisticuffs from the world of television and sport. From punch-ups on the football pitch to half-hearted disagreements (which Johnny wittilly terms 'a case of the handbags'), there is plenty here to amuse and entertain.

The ’90s Are Old is a Longreads series by Rebecca Schuman, wherein she unpacks the cultural legacy of a decade that refuses to age gracefully.

"Where Have All the Cowboys Gone" came on the jukebox last night. Don't think I'd heard it in maybe 15 years. Just here to say: holds up!
