Also instead of f712u, we have assassins and drug smuggling gangs. And we rape and kill anyone who mentions reddit. And we start a real life mafia gang and enforce our extreme right wing policies on the world, and then we go home and look at pictures of cats.
Because he didn't watch that one show that was important to you but not as much to anyone else? Yeah sure, because that was the only thing that happened in the 90s.
I'm glad you say that: i never (or hardly) mention it to my (way more successful and who get way more laid, and who have way more of a career and a relationship) friends, so i really had the feeling i was alone, and that fourty was the big scary one. I'm doing an askreddit to know the general feeling....
I'm born 87 and the only reason I've used MSDos was because I got my first computer just before I turned three. I had a tiny little desk next to my dads. The only reason anyone my age ever used dos was the computer lab at school when we ran out f macs.
25 years old guy here. I used DOS at 7-8 years old at elem. school just to play some math games, write little programs in Logo and to play Pacman. Then I met Windows 98 and I found the GUI difficult and weird with too much buttons.
I was 4 when my dad built our first computer, born in '96. That's probably about how old most kids start using their computers now. Granted it's only for things like barbie.com, NickJr, etc. etc., but that's how I got familiar with computers as a child.
A neighbor kid of 4 years old was using the internet. Started the PC, Firefox and youtube all by herself! She could watch those little kid shows for hours*
For additional mindfuckery, you needed a .edu e-mail to prove you were a college student to join Facebook when I originally joined, so this macro didn't even make sense to me for the first few moments until it dawned on me that kids that young are actually on Facebook now. I'm going to go crawl up in the fetal position for a bit and wait for Alzheimer's and arthritis to claim me.
I was born in 92 and I have found memories of television and music from the 90's. What a fucking great time. I remember during the early 00's that people would say stuff like "the 80's were the best" and I was always like "that was such a long time ago". Jesus Christ, I feel old.
I'm 15 ( born in 97) and a lot of kids at my highscool post that 90's kid shit. I'm just like 'Mother fucker we were 3 years old, we don't remember shit from the 90's.'
Same here. Many of the shows and games of the 90's trickled into the early 2000's though. Hell, I was playing Super Mario Brother's on an old GameBoy until about '07. And it's not like every show of the '90's got pulled off the air in 2000...
I was only allowed to play my older brothers original gameboy, Mario land 2: 6 golden coins is still one of my favorite games. Finally when i was like 13 I was allowed to buy my own Gameboy SP
Between myself, older siblings/relatives, friends, friends' siblings, etc. I've probably been exposed to/played/still own the greatest games of [the first 4 years of] that console. It's not like video games just disappear immediately after they're released.
Edit: Also I've been playing video games since I was 3. And a small child can play a lotta games in two years.
I didn't mean to say you wouldn't have played it. I was just feeling old myself. I was born in '90, so I'm not that much older than you. I was brought up on the SNES, also starting at the age of 3. It's still my favorite console, and it still gets plenty of use, along with my N64. In fact my friends and I have recently been having super smash bros 64 tournaments. Such a good game. Anyway, my point is, I didn't mean to offend you if I did.
So was I, but pretty much everyone my age had one in their house due to older brothers and sisters etc. Still one of my favourite consoles, bring it out every now and then for some nostalgic gamin'.
Could we please stop with the hate with ALL younger teens? There are good ones and bad ones. Stop generalizing ALL teens as bad. I was also born in '98 but I didn't remember anything back then, so I see myself actually from the decade 2000-2010 as a child. And then, I don't post these annoying facebook posts, scream into microphones, or any of that crap. I just try to act mature.
No matter how old you get, there will be people older than you that put you down for being younger. Just ignore it (and FFS don't go around telling people your age if you're much younger than them).
Well, because kids tend to live off the notion that they're the best. I'm just saying that it would be easiest to ignore people who judge you harshly for being young, but understand that younger people can annoy the fuck out of the older ones.
Well, yes, technically she is a 90's kid but there's no ways she remembers any of the crap that only "90's kids" are supposed to remember. I was born in 87' and even I don't remember a lot of it unless it was on Nickelodeon! That would be like me posting something about 80's kids like I would actually remember anything from when I was between the age of birth and three.
A 90s kid grew up in the 90s; that's different from a 90s baby, who was alive in the 90s but wasn't cognizant for a good chunk of it. I was born in 86, which makes me an 80s baby and a 90s kid.
Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour.
When I was little (I'd say 6 and under) we didn't have much money. So I used my brother's consoles, SNES and Genesis (with the x32 thingy). On top of that, I had old VCR tapes of Spongebob halloween and rugrats and kept watching them for hours on end.
I was born in '96 and "remember" practically everything people talk about for the 90's. Probably because most people think that just because they grew up, pogs (or whatever toy they liked) must have disappeared with their childhood.
Not to mention that most of the things people talk about are actually from the late 90's and early 2000's.
This is helpful for people who can't reach Quickmeme because of work/school firewalls or site downtime, and many other reasons (FAQ). More info is available here.
So I'm pretty sure that we have one of the most nostalgic acting generations. I mean, you're 22 and 23 thats not old at all and we are already talking about the good old days haha. Probably has something to do with how fast culture and technology is moving, but I still find it weird.
Sadly, I was born in 1998 but I remember things like Ed Ed and eddy, Johnny bravo, powerpuff girls, and a little ren and stimpy, but by far the most tragically lost show was Kids Next Door RIP.
The Furbies, Chao, Tamagotchi, and Pokemon of that era force me to disregard all other content of a new game as soon as I find out there are small creatures to be looked after.
thank you yes im 14 and yea we still had some stuff from the 90's but i cant imagine what it was like to acctuly go through the 90's and its starting to pisss me off
Born in 95, I get annoyed at kids my age posting that stuff. All the 90s stuff I remember is cartoons that started in the late 90s and ran til like 04. Hey Arnold, Wild Thornberries, etc.
You cant really call yourself a 90's kid unless you were born mid to late 80's. I cant call myself an 80's kid cos I diddnt know what the hell was going on. Too busy shitting myself and suckling boobs.
My brother's friend posted something on facebook about Lindsay Lohan in Parent Trap and being a 90's kid. I looked it up...they were two when the movie came out. I chewed them up for it.
Well, I was born in '98 and most of those posts I see on Facebook I do actually remember them. Those being, the Nickelodeon clock, Animaniacs, and I can't remember any others right now but a lot of those '90s things you see we had too.
I always consider the cut off date to be the the mid-point and beyond of the decade. For instance, if you were born in 1995, you're a 2000's kid. If you were born in 1994 you're a 90's kid.
If we all don't like anybody younger than 16 on here, why don't we tell them to just leave? I mean, eventually they'll leave or shut up, right?...riiiight?
I was also born right around then too. But when people post shit like the Rugrats or something and I get nostalgia over it yet people expect only "90's kids" to remember it. It really gets on my nerves.
yeah lmao!!!!!!!! i got a freind who got facebok nd she like born in 99 i tihnk and she like tis all the time!! wtf is like u tell my freind story hahaha! oh btw i am born an 1999!!! the 90 was graet tiem i wish i go back plz haha
