No kidding! Despite RJ and Hoser's contrary opinions.Not to mention, nobody who lived through the 70s thinks that the styles were cool.
What are the 90's known for? What will the 2000's be known for?

Nah, hip hop was already big in the 80's...
But then the sub-set of Gangsta rap got more of the spotlight in the 90's...
1990 -1993 still felt like the late 80s to me, 1994-1996 felt like the 90s, 1997-1999 felt like the 2000's...
yeah I know that probably doesnt make any sense...

It makes perfect sense to me. I especially found that in the music sense: the early 90s were the 80s hangover of pop, techno and Madchester pop with a small peak in ragga, with guitar music as Grunge start a loyal following; the middle 90s saw guitar bands dominate as Britpop and alternative rock, with modern house lurk in the background; the late 90s saw the return of pop, RnB, and hip hop begin to dominate over guitar music and "BritPop", while dance music grew up as modern house, big beat and trance. At least that's how it was for me.
The 2000s were a similar three-phase phenomenon: the early 2000s were a hangover from the late 90s, with hip hop and RnB collaborations taking hold and dominating the charts and the music waves throughout, however by the early-mid 2000s, guitar music tried to fight back (and in my opinion failed to conquer this time). The latter years seem to be highly influenced by electronic sounds and the sounds of the 80s.
But the 2000s were clearly the time of Zion Ravescene. Everyone knows that. [We certainly do.
- everyone]

It might have been big in the 80s, but it became pervasive in the 90s.

That would be my answer as well. Plus this:
I think we're unofficially in the '10s now. 2008 will probably seen as the last real '00s-feeling year and the problems we have right now won't magically disappear overnight.
The blow jobs of the 90s were superior to the blow jobs of any other decade? Why would the 90s be especially known for blowjobs? Or are you getting personal here...?
Other decades have had those too.
We're in transition. I wouldn't say we're in the 2010s yet. We've still got elements of the 00s happening, though those elements are disappearing.
Lewinsky.
It's sad, but as styles of the 70s start coming back, I feel happier.
I think I remember a news story about somebody and a blow job. Can't...quite...recall...
O.J.! 
Did anybody else read this and think of that scene in the Jerk where Steve Martin is explaining to Bernadette Peters how even though they have only known each other for 4 weeks and 3 days it seems like 9 weeks and 5 days?
Personally, I think the 90s will become known as the era of the perfection of excess, consumptive and otherwise, paired with extremely rapid technological advancement.
The strange thing is that styles from the 80s are coming back, as well. Every so often, I see teenage boys wearing polo shirts with the collars up.
The 90's where also known for the Boy Bands and Girl Groups...
This decade, pop wise, it was more solo young singers starting with Britney and Christina and now we have Duffy and Sara Bareilles...
Alternative rock was also strong this decade, with bands like Hoobastank and Coldplay...

Amen.
Still better then this decade being known for Nickelback...
