The Pajiba 10 (1992 Edition)

Pajiba wasn’t around in 1992, of course. I was but a high-school student still nursing a deadly crush on Alyssa Milano at the time. Grunge had just arrived to my hometown, a year after everywhere else in the civilized world, and I spent a lot of time that year working on Bill Clinton’s presidential campaign and watching “Ren and Stimpy.” Though Pajiba wasn’t even a word yet, I’ve attempted to channel the eclectic sensibility of the Pajiba readership and come up with what I think The Pajiba 10 might have looked like in 1992, had I put out a request to all of you to create a freebies list, which you might have laminated and put in your velcro wallet or had etched into your jelly shoes.

So, I present you with what I think you’d have selected as Your Pajiba 10 at the time, and the images are all period appropriate.
