Why was that dinning room table fucking everywhere back in the day!!! That looks like my grandma’s house in the 90s. Wth.
The 90s only looked like that on film sets and at rich people’s homes.
this jpeg looks like it’s been making the rounds since the 90s
Wood paneling everywhere. Rooms, cars, everywhere.
And not even the good wood paneling, it was the grain-printed stained plywood shit that everyone used in the late 70s/early 80s.

Who tf thinks the 90’s looked like the 1st picture… I WISH the 99’s looked like that!
Whenever people think they know what a specific decade was like that they didn’t live through, they think all the furniture was brand new and just bought from a catalogue. In reality you have a style mix of at least 2+ decades at any point in time.
My house has stuff from like 8 different decades in it right now lol
You maybe should put great great great grandpa in the ground by now, he’s starting to smell.
Nah, they have stuff that’ll be the style in future generations, they’re a trend setter.
“Well uh, I guess you guys aren’t ready for that yet. Heh”
Don’t call g-g-g-grandpa stuff!
Yep. People underestimate how much money you can save by just… not buying new furniture. Thrift shops and hand me downs from elderly family members downsizing make up the overwhelming majority of the furniture in my house.
Do I sometimes wish I could have a different style? Sure. Do I want it bad enough to spend hundreds of dollars on it? No.
The only exceptions is stuff you rest on. Chairs, couches, beds. Don’t skimp on those or your body will hate you even more than usual.
Do I want it bad enough to spend hundreds of dollars on it? No.
You’re off by at least one order of magnitude. I went to a furniture shop recently and shit’s expensive, yo.
Depends on what you want. Massive & quality or cheap plywood and holds until you move it.
You’re pretty much stuck at whatever style was cool when you’re 20-30ish. So your parents are probably stuck at around the time you were born.
Not me.
This exactly
Left was definitely the case for most Taco Bells:
I wish corporate companies would go back to these styles. The bench’s and stools bring back so many memories. T-Bell in my area had plants up on that ledge up top
There was a McDonald’s in a nice part of town that had a big ass fish tank in it too
Nostalgia!!!
I want more Taco Bell pics from the different decades, this is fun
Late 80’s:
Mid 00’s:
Demolition Man:
Late-90s, early-2000s McDonald’s was peak.
Dollar menu. Pokemon toys. Some has N64 play areas.
Demolition Man was excellent
We only have 8 years to go until Taco Bell has won the franchise wars and all restaurants become Taco Bell!
I don’t think that 80s pic is right. The prices and drink fountain, plus the signage all feels too modern. Maybe the chairs are left over, but I’d like to see a pic from the 80s. I can only find 90s when searching online.
Newer pic, definitely. They just hadn’t updated the interior. Best I could find quickly. Here’s one from 82, but clearly a custom rather than corporate level consistent interior:
Now that looks 80s!
I’m pretty sure the breakfast menu is really recent. This article seems to back me up on that thought
Edit: oh, yeah. Look at the cars on the left side of the 80s pic lol
All I needed to see was the Baja Blast on the menu to know that that picture isn’t from the 80’s. (Others have also mentioned the cars visible which is also a giveaway,
60s is where it’s at.
They should bring back that little mascot.
People would accuse them of racism if they did that today.
and they should.
the entire menu, and company history is cultural appropriation. They literally ripped off a mexican family restaurant
Where did you get that picture of my childhood dining room?
Are you my brother?
OP, were you a creeper secretly living in my house?!
The one on the right is what my grandma’s dining room still looks like. Exact chairs and all.
The 90s are to now as the 60s were to the 90s.
Fuck you. 60s are still 30-40 years ago damnit!
Yes grampa I know, now can you eat you pudding cup
I want a go-gurt, damnit!
I love pudding cups! Oh shit, I am olde!
Explains all the retro 90s comebacks
The first picture is what the mall looked like lol
Pretty spot on for the skate rink in my town, if the carpet was black with neon blobs and squiggles.
That’s what grandma’s house looked like in the 90’s. Exact same way it looked in the 50’s when she and grandpa first moved in!

The left image only existed in the form of an arcade, and it wouldn’t have been so brightly lit.
I’m glad someone pointed this out. Left is 90’s arcades, bowling allies, skating rinks, and a few malls. The right is at home.
The left image exist in the home of wealth people, or their kids’, living in trendy, high end, neighborhoods. The black and white minimalism, and the Memphis School style, was out there. It was in Manhattan penthouses, and LA hills mansions.
