    So, the internet took off. This lady is putting a picture of her food on her personal website. There is a respiratory disease pandemic so people are wearing masks for public health safety measures.

    Lol, it’s not that crazy. The 90s has both internet and masks.

        Its a new concept. Imagine first a body of a normal person. Then add two large lumps symmetrically positioned near the front top part of the body. Next you add a flappy vertical hole with lots of curly hairs covering the area between the legs at the crotch. This hole goes up into a replication machine. Bare in mind that the replication is flawed as it makes miniature empty people. You have to grow them and feed them and teach them everything… A totally real Hazel. If you see one of these creatures you should best stay far away. You’ll live happier and they too seem happier with you not in the way…for your useful life. In the end portion of your life you’ll be kicking your nuts as to why you didn’t try to be with one of these majestic creatures. The two lumps are called the tits by the way. You never mention or touch these three areas without permission as they are protected by a highly effective security system that slaps your face proportional to the offense.

      Ah, you see, they didn’t specify WHICH 90s. It’s actually a time traveler from 2493.

      Humans have long since transcended the need to take photos as their bodies have been replaced by extremely advanced biomachinery that allows them to perfectly recall the exact image they wish and share it directly with someone straight into their main sentience processor.

      Maybe throw in a bit about how cell phones are flat rectangles now, they’re ubiquitous and have both high speed internet access and built in cameras.

          What cell phones had internet in the 90s? Keep in mind, the Nokia brick in the early 00s is like an eidetic memory for most millennials today.

            They did, but it was very slow. Picture messaging was also a thing, but may have been early 2000s. There wasn’t much to browse on the mobile web…basic weather and news etc. Usually it was the network operator but there were offerings from yahoo and similar.

    General over use of acetaminophen, contrary to the common belief that it caused autism, made humans allergic to consuming animal milk products (lactose intolerance). However, more than just giving one gas, consuming dairy products now results in death.

    Our great world leader, Elon, felt pitty on us and provided us all with Neurochips, which allows us to synthetically taste dairy once again after a quick image scan.

    This woman exhibts caution by covering her mouth and nose and enjoys a timeless vanilla ice cream.

    We got ‘taste masks’ now that can simulate eating any delicacy, even in slow motion, without a single calorie to burn afterwards. You just scan the food with this wireless scanner.

      Not really related, but if you’re hankering for a soft serve, I highly recommend heading to your local GYG instead of Maccas. Their machines aren’t more reliable, but their soft serves are so much nicer. Thicker, creamier soft serve than Maccas offers.

    Ah yes, things people weren’t aware of in the 90s: masks, respiratory illness, mobile phones, cameras, and ice cream.

    Granted that exact form factor of combination phone/camera is novel but come on.

      Until the very late 90’s you might have to explain the concept of a digital camera. Sony introduced their first Mavica digital camera in 1997 and it took awhile for the tech to catch on with the general public.

      Yeah all these concepts would be fairly easy to explain to someone from 100 years ago. Sure they would be amazed of how much more compact and affordable modern photography had gotten, but the concept is unchanged. Icecream is nothing new, masks are nothing new.

    She’s wasting that ice cream, that’s what.

    Show someone from the 1990s the video of those guys “bravely” breaking the law to get a haircut.

    That’s a cellular PDA, and we had a plague so folks are now mask conscience to some degree. Also a bunch of dipshits had their brains melted by the internet and now are causing massive problems, also memes are the DNA of the soul.
