90 Facts About the 1990s - Video

View fullsize

Mental Floss has released a wonderful trivia filled new episode of their "List Show" giving us 90 facts about the 1990s. I was a teenager through most of '90s, and I spent a lot of that time in movie theaters and playing PlayStation, so there's a lot of other stuff that I just didn't know or care to know about at the time. This 11-minute video just filled me in on a lot of things that I wasn't aware of. Some of it is stupid, but there were also some things that I found interesting. Like why Furbies were banned from offices at the National Security Agency and how Pogs being banned from schools because they thought it was gambling! Enjoy!

A weekly show where knowledge junkies get their fix of trivia-tastic information. This week, John looks at 90 facts about the 1990s. As if!
