Wow! I remember all that stuff! But not because I was a 90's kid. (Ha! maybe 1890's :laugh: ) But because our son was born in 1985 and he went through all those fads. He had every Ninja Turtle ever made. He could say 12 syllable dinosaur names when he was 3.
Time sure flies. He's getting married tomorrow. -
I remember them too, but because my boys were born is '81 and '82.
I love pinky and the brain, if it were on here I'd be watching it now.
Amy, my youngest gets married in September. -
I'm certainly not a 90's kid, but I have children and grandchildren, and great grandchildren, so I haven't missed out on any of these things. :)

And just what is wrong with Windows 98?? I think it still works great! How ELSE would I be here??
Yes - my computer is running Windows 98 right now. :D
Oh - and we still record shows on a VCR. -
I thought that list was more from the 80's, but yep, I sure remember those things.

Slap bracelets lol... I had a few of those they were so bad (as in good, yet another 90´s thing)

I remember waiting for Windows 95 to come out!
Using Windows 3.1 on a IBM laptop with a black and white screen, with the little button in the middle of the keyboard to move the mouse... Anyone remember those? -

Anybody remember watching the Smurfs? Or ALF? Maybe those are from the 80's instead of the 90's. I was so heartbroken when they took ALF off the air. That was a funny show.

I used to watch 'Alf' every week. I know the Smurfs through my kids.
