Derby #239: The Year You Were Born: Redux!

Hey, this Derby's over. When you're finished reliving past glories, check out what's going on in the Derby right now. It's probably even cooler. Or at least newer.

Think back to a time before you were such a disillusioned, pessimistic fool. Imagine how wondrous things seemed for you, a newborn, bright-eyed babe, and your adoring parents so overjoyed and optimistic at your future. Yes, it's been a long time since- What? Are you serious? You were born in 1992? Is that even possible? That should only make you, like, FIVE, right? Holy crap we're old. Okay, while we work through some existential angst, take a second to research the year you were born. Find out what was going on in the world, what people thought the future would hold, who was in the news and what the major events were. Then give us your send-up of the year in t-shirt form! And do it within just these two rules, since you break most of the others anyway:

No text only designs. You must have a graphical element.
You must title your design the year you were born.
