What are some eras you felt DRAGGED and were LONG in the TOOTH, I will give you a few,
The Grunge era and the Y2K era. But the SLOWEST one of them all is the modern Hipster era.

Disagree with the grunge era, it didn't go for very long at all (1992 - 1994).
I wasn't there for the 80s but, it definitely seems like a decade that kept going and going looking back. 1984 - 1988/89 just seems like one era (seriously, there wasn't much cultural change until 1989). Even the early 90s carried on a lot of trends from the 80s (especially 1989 - 1992 and 1992 - 1994 to a much lesser degree).

The Y2K era. But to me, that wasn't bad as I didn't know anything else. It's true though: I thought teen pop was a constant and thought when I was like 4 that I would have a Y2K-era adolescence.

Disagree with the grunge era, it didn't go for very long at all (1992 - 1994). It's a pretty ambiguous term though. The "grunge era" could arguably be used to describe the entire '90s alt-rock sound that defined the decade from almost start to finish, from the release of Nevermind in '91 to artists/bands such as Hole, Eagle Eye Cherry etc. achieving success as late as 1999. Not that I would actually consider most of the post-grunge and '90s alt-rock bands to be outright 'grunge', however bands such as Bush, Collective Soul, Garbage etc. did have stylistic ties with the original Seattle grunge scene and they wouldn't have become successful had it not been for the emergence of the "Big 4". I wouldn't actually disagree with 1991-1998 being described as one long era in terms of certain aesthetics and styles that remained popular throughout that period tbh, but I would be more inclined to refer to it as being the era for "alternative". It was the "alt-rock era" more or less.

Even the early 90s carried on a lot of trends from the 80s (especially 1989 - 1992 and 1992 - 1994 to a much lesser degree). Yeah I agree with the grunge era it was already fading out between mid 1994- mid 1996. I think the post grunge era influence lasted way too long from late 1994 to 2009-2011ish at the farthest. Early 90s only lasted for 3 to almost 4 years. I consider late 1990 but moreso spring/summer 1991 to June 1994 yet hanging around to around mid 1995 to be the proper mainstream grunge era. Honestly this also applies to the early 90s. The last substantial old school early 90s vibes were felt in mid 1995, the first more official early 90s period was 1990-1991, where 90s slightly outweighed the late 80s influences a bit more than 1989-1990 even though the 90s were mostly there by summer 1989-summer 1990. Early 90s very last influence was between early 1996 and mid 1997. Mid 90s influence felt it would never end. From first taking shape around mid to late 1992 to coexisting around Spring/Summer of 1997 to mid 1998 with late 90s. Lasting influence was early 1999. Late 90s was literally like 1 and half years regardless of what your cut off mark and it was either leaning more mid or late if you split them and was kind of like a gateway to the Y2K era. Lasting influence was 2002. Y2K was really really short. Anything prior to late 1999 had some degree of real core or late 90s influence mixed in. Anything after very early to mid 2000 was already transitioning to early 2000s. Super super short. Lasting influence was 2003-2004. Early 2000s was medium length but they had lasting influence until 2006 Mid 2000s almost felt they would never end the influences could be felt until 2012. Late 2000s were a short transition point between the mid and late 2000s they are responsible for the early to mid 2010s. Lasting influence was to 2016. Early 2010s had its last direct influence in 2014 but also partially responsible in a more general sense with the mid 2010s for every year since 2013 to the present. Mid 2010s feels the longest so far with the earliest signs in 2010-2011 and we still have left 85 percent of things associated with that era. You could say the last period of direct influence would be late 2017 to late 2019 but it’s mostly the same today. Late 2010s direct influence hasn’t ended yet.. can’t tell

It was the "alt-rock era" more or less. I think it’s quite hard to ignore or dismiss late 80s college alt rock and how mainstream it was as early as late 1987 going into 1988. I would even lump U2 as alt rock and carrying a lot of the aesthetics and sensibilities. Even Tracey Chapman to some degree and Suzanne Vega. Sonic Youth, REM, indie pop, early madchester, husker du, Janes addiction, soul asylum etc were quite well absorbed by the mainstream by late 1987-1988. Even if this existed in world where 80s cheese pop hadn’t expired yet Michaels Jackson’s bad and Taylor Diane, Samatha Fox and Tiffany were hot Honestly most of 1998 is overwhelmingly Y2K or Y2kish/late 90s combo at most. I would say early 1998 was the last gasp of stereotypical 90s alt rock. There was some in mid 98 to mid 99 but very little. Here are my alt rock timelines: General: Late 1987 to Early 1997 Strongest Influence: 1988 to 1994-1996 Full: 1984 to early 1998/early 1999

This one. Yes, I realize we're in the COVID-19/Biden's first term kind of era right now, but late 2010s influences still feel really prominent to me.

Overall, yes, the pandemic era is definitely an era that seems to never be ending.

Yeah me to,(2016-2019) was a very cancerous and just flat out toxic era for me. 2020 was shit to but for personal reason i would rather be here then the late 2010s, but i still hate 2020 and 2021. I get every generation had there bad and worse era's for everyone but there was something negative about these eras 2016-2019/2020-2021 that just made it stand out from it. actually i think i know what it is but I'm just to lazy to explain it right now. im in bed and I'm comfy as fuck right now, Lol.

I'd include 2015 apart of the cancerous and toxic era. I blame 2015 for the current state of politics, so fuck that year and may it burn in hell! I agree that 2020 and 2021 sucks. I didn't expect the pandemic to end on Friday, January 1, 2021 like most people thought it would. 2021 is better than 2020 personally, however it's not as fun as 2019 was for me. IMO, I always believe that 2014 kicked off that toxic political divide in the world. Before 2014, everything wasn't as toxic. Post 2014 on the other hand is straight up toxic.

I was actually debating 2014 because 2014 was a transitional year politically. The first half still felt carefree and laidback. The second half was when shit hit the fan with Ferguson. In the November 2014 election, Republicans took over, which is partly or mostly responsible for Trump’s election. I forget if ISIS was heard on the news since late 2013 or 2014. But then again I hear by late 2012, politics became toxic. I don't think 2012 politics had the toxicity as much as late 2014/15 but politics have always been toxic, it's just that social media has exposed it to the max.
