The mid-90s. Before that people smoked cigarettes FUCKING EVERYWHERE and it was beyond disgusting. In the 1990s we had raves with ecstasy which people understood perfectly how to enjoy, and few offbeat drugs that would create weird moods for the party. This lasted until about year 2,000. Jobs and money were still decently available, so life wasn't misery. In 2001 the financial system and economy stopped making sense, and of course 9/11 set the world on a race to 1984. So yeah, between 1994 and 2001 or so. Them days weren't so old but they were good.
