peak 90's interactive house decor

[minty]

there was a time period where what is effectively furniture did things in the house without internet apps and updates, aka "smart" tech. this was the 90's
this is interactive house decor.
there was furby and it spoke its own language and you could teach it words. this required a sufficient amount of interaction but it did not move around and sat on a shelf. the clapper is not technically decor but when you clapped n it turned the lights off. made for lazy faggots
the PEAK of 90's interactive house decor is, of course, the big mouth billy bass

you don't need alexa.

you don't need a home security system either

the big mouth billy bass is cheaper and serves all of these purposes. and won't stop if the wifi goes out

Big mouth billy bass won't wiretap you, he won't sell your information to Jeff Bbezos, nothing but good tunes and a good home.

i remember those times. phones had to stay attached to the walls and your dad had to pay all those long distance fees because you called your girlfriend in the next county over. then there's the nosy little sister that would secretly pick up while anyone else was using the phone and listen in. of course, theres also having to set an alarm just to catch the latest favorite saturday morning cartoon episode and trying to figure out how to set the fucking time on a vcr.

one of my earlier memories is sitting over at my neighbours and seeing that fish sing some gay 90s pop song and thinking it's the coolest, most advanced thing ever

also i hate how it was so culturally significant it was literally made into a plotline on the sopranos

Yknow, McDonalds had one of those Billy Bass fishes that you could've purchased with your meal... He sang "Give Me Back That Filet-O-Fish, Gimme The Fish!", that one, there was also another variant of that fish but there were more of them any they variant sang "Fish Fish McBite, McBite, Fish Fish McBite, McBite", yknow that one


but I think Wallace and Gromit has the most peak 90s interactive house decor, despite W&G debuting in the late 80s (1989), I think they count as a 90s thing since most of there movies came out in the 90s

You're thinking of the 1980s
