I'm a mid-millennial, born in the late 80's. I've seen all of the 90's.

If I was going into temporal witness protection, going back in time to keep me safe from the mob I ratted out...would I want to live in 1995?

2005 is an easier sell. I graduated high school that year, and a LOT changed in those ten years. Would I want to go back to 1995?

I remember 2005 very well and it was so nice lol, but I am very biased for being a kid then.
