Remembering the 90s and 80s

Hate the videos, love the nostalgia. Yes, I remember dial-up too well, especially when my uncle had it for quite a time because he never used broadband and I think their town got it late too.
 
And then came 30,000 incarnations of the Power Rangers shows with the same setup each time that slowly reduced the fan-base over time to what it is today. Thanks Power Rangers.

Although you do have to admit the first couple Power Rangers shows and theme songs were pretty awesome for their time. ;)
 
Omg I remember drinking that as a kid when I was sick, it tasted so good, but I can't remember what it's called.

And I was born in 97', so I wasn't able to comprehend anything meaningful from the 90's

Amoxicillin. It was like the go to antibiotic, and that flavor was so choice. Back then (before my medical anxiety) I used to ask to go to the doctors anytime I had the most minor ailment, in hopes they'd give me some.
 
I'm a 93 kid so my more detailed memories start somewhere in 98/99. I remember a lot of 90s cartoon shows that were really awesome such as Ducktales or Darkwing Duck.

The best was Pok?mon in 1999/2000, though! I'm from Europe and the Pok?mon hype started around 2000 here (: Everyone was basically into Pok?mon back then. Every kid had a Gameboy with Pok?mon Red/Blue, Pok?mon cards, stickers, stuffed animals, figurines, superballs etc. etc. It was crazy! I still play Pok?mon nowadays but it's not the same as back then! I sometimes wish I could go back in time but then again, I'm glad I'm grown-up now and can take care of myself (;

I kind of miss those days because the Internet had not occupied everyone's lives yet. There was no social media, Facebook, Twitter etc. People actually had to go out to meet people. It was a more social life, I think.

...To be honest, I'm kind of terrified of what they've become in recent years. I miss the old ones.

Did anyone else collect the heck out of these?

This is a pretty funny vid to watch of teens react they react to 90s internet lol. You guys remember the hassle we all went through with dial up XD.


rofl they forgot to tell them how slow the internet was, youtube videos had really bad quality back then 360p was considered hd and to watch a 4 minute video you had to wait 15 minutes for the video to load and the limit was a 10 minute video. also people would brag about how "small" their cell phones are because small was considered cool also no colour and not even music but they would play 8 bit sounds

ugh the power rangers...I used to love them lol
 
I had so many of those Littlest Pet Shops! I also remember Puppy and Kitty in my Pocket. The new Littlest Pet Shop are creepy and lame just like the new My Little Ponies. It's like do kids these days really want to play with ugly alien toys? What is wrong with having a toy animal that actually looks like an animal?
 
Growing up in the 90's was such a blast. I could go on for days, but for now I'll just leave this here. You know, the coolest commercial ever made for a board game that may not have lived up to this amazingly hardcore ad:


Also, the best movies ever were all made in the 80's and early 90's. This is fact.
 
I remember when gas was 99 cents back in my day (the 90's)
-violently waves cane around-

There was a parody on Robot Chicken in the 2000's about GI Joe and Commander Cobra was like,

"Haha! With this weather dominator I will heat the earth to millions of degrees and rule all!

And then there were two random guys on the ground and one guy said to the other,

"Heating the earth up?! That will send oil prices skyrocketing!"

and the other guy said,

"I know right! Can you imagine? GASOLINE for over a DOLLAR a GALLON??"

I laughed so hard when I watched it and then was sad later cause it's true that gas was way cheaper in the 1900's
 
God, I was only 7 when it turned 2000, so most of my childhood was through the early 2000's.
But, freaking a I loved Bear in the Big Blue House.
 
You guys been noticing lately that a lot of are old favorite cartoons , TV shows , and movies as well as toys are making a come back little by little. Sigh I just wish Hollywood didn't have to messed things up of our favorite childhood cartoon shows cause they are definitely gonna messed up the movie jem x.x..
 
I do know furbies are making a comeback. I think they should have left those things in the 90's/early 2000's.
I think after 2005, tv and toys went to crap. I look at today's cartoons and I just don't know what I'm looking at.
 
Ah, the 90s. Good times. Back when getting up on Saturday morning to watch a cartoon was the thing to do. Now the only thing special about Saturday mornings is that networks TheWB air anime dubs of shows like Dragonball Kai. Plus the internet wasn't a prominent thing back in the 90s. And even when it WAS around it was terrible dial-up.

Gargoyles and the SatAM Sonic The Hedgehog cartoon were among my favorites back in the day. Another show I liked was Project Geeker, which only lasted around 13 episodes and got canned due to the whole "educational television" thing. I've never encountered another person who has even seen it. It's where I recognize the voice of Brad Garrett and NOT from Everybody Loves Raymond.

Cereal was another thing that was big in the 90s for two reasons. Lucky Charms knockoffs based on popular franchises, and box tops prizes. I still remember what the box of Jurassic Park cereal looked like. I remember sending in box tops to get a bouncing ball with a glow in the dark T-Rex inside. I lost it at the beach. Bummer.

Then... 1998 gave us the Pokemon craze. And what a craze it was.
