15 Things From the 90’s You Forgot to Remember

Look, I’m not one to pretend that being born some year makes you more or less important than if you were born some other year. There’s nothing special about us 90’s kids. But it’s still fun to be reminded of all the little idiosyncrasies of the era and dig up the memories we have attached to them. So if you’re too young to recall this particular decade, that’s fine, but let us olds have our fun! Maybe scroll through anyway and learn a thing or two.

Here are 15 things you forgot to remember about growing up in the 90’s!

15. Music by mail

I will never complain about a bad streaming connection again.

14. Bad timing

Still, they’re never gonna keep me down.

13. The super S

Its powers are mysterious and to be respected.

12. Shooting stars

“What if I had a bunch of lights in my room while I tried to sleep?” – me, apparently

11. Pr0n

It’s hard to come of age when all the good stuff is scrambled.

10. Big oof

The bigger the jeans, the closer to God.

9. Polly pocket

A pain AND a choking hazard! Fun!

8. Slide board

They should make a new Tony Hawk Pro Skater but with these things.

7. Cut the cord

Can you believe we used to have one phone PER HOUSEHOLD?

6. Stabbed in the back

Et tu, Capri?

5. We’re worth it too

How is no one in prison for this blatant false advertising?

4. Feeling hot, hot, hot

Totally worth it, though.

3. Will they, won’t they

I think today’s kids have whole new ways to be disappointed by Sony.

2. Be kind

Back when “rewind” literally meant rewind.

1. Rose colored glasses

I call this the “Brave Little Toaster Syndrome.”

Ah, that’s the good stuff. Gimme that 90’s dopamine hit any day.

What else would you put on a list like this?
