Your a 90's kid when you read this and smiled and laughed at least 5 of these.

Got this off another site ^^ I'm so a 90's kid

[Hardcore Skittlez]

Wow. Now I feel Old. I laughed at like, 7-8 of them.

The Green Ranger was always so much cooler than the others...He had a sword... Strangely enough, I remember most of that from my early childhood, but could not remembet it all, after all, I was born in '91. I can also still remember watching the Jurasic(Whatever) Park movies, and getting scared to dead. Remember when Sonic 3D Was a revolution? Yeah, me too.

[Kouta]

7-8? Try like...all but the MC Hammer joke and a few others...I'm so 90 it ain't funny....

*born in 91...*

[Arashi]

So 90's.

90%(coincidence?) of them were true on me. Ninja turtles was my favo tv-show, and I remember when my friend bought his super nintendo. It was like... wow. Man, I can't believe that those statements can be just so truth!

(and I can sing fresh prince on spanish, that counts, no?)

[Cloudnine]

OMG.

My preciousssss....90's memories. T-T

[Guest kuratg]

OMG! I sooo went down memory lane there. I remember the very first season of Power Rangers. My first tamagochi was a duck and it died every two weeks for me. I had a New Kids on the Block lunch box that I took to school every day with my trapper keeper. I still have my signed Spice Girls poster here in my room somewhere. I remember when they CANCLED Are You Afraid of the Dark?. I remember fighting with my mom to get me a CD player to replace my Walk-man. I also remember when, by today's standards, the crappiest CD player was worth 70+ bucks. I myself voted for the purple M&M. I think you forgot the yo-yo craze after the pogs, which, if I may add, are still taking up an entire drawer in my room.

I LOVE THE 90's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EDIT: Don't forget about Pokemon. XD They banned the cards from my sixth grade school because people were stealing the 'rare' cards. I jacked someone's Charizard. Buuuwhahaha.

haha I laughed at alot of them because I can remeber most of them happeneing. You always hear things about a certain time period that made them special, but you don't know what to say about the 90's because you lived them (for us younger members).

*born in 91*

[Guest Skye]

Ayame, you are cool; even if you did get it off another site. xD

I definetely remember quite a few of that stuff, perhaps 70%+ of it. Good stuff.

I remember when they CANCLED Are You Afraid of the Dark?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

[Guest sasukepwnz]

[Matthias Drake]

[Guest Rara-chan]

Weren't you born in the late 90's...? Like... '96 :-P

[Guest Imakuni?]

Favorite 90's moments:

-The fall of The Spice Girls (The boys had a friggin' parade, however those British succubus's ultimately won by getting those damned catchy tunes stuck in our heads for eternity)

-Finally getting 1st Edititon Charizard, Blastoise, and Venasuar through rigorous trading on the school playground (It was like a stock market crash in those days... ahh the memories)

-And having that pile-o-crap Magikarp that the fat bastard in the PokeCenter sold you for $500 evolve into Gyarados at level 20 while lost in Mt. Moon (And kicking Gary's ass across the floor with it... serves that prick right)

Worst 90's moments:

-"Mmm Bop", and Celine Dione with that damn Titanic song...

[Matthias Drake]

The worst 90s moment was totally the Clinton scandal.

I'm serious.

Only in America can a man be considered the devil by half the population for gettin' his mack on.

Stupid American pigdogs.

[Kiyoshi]

aahhhhh Pogs... i had such sweet memories from that game...

who in the blue hell is mike jones?

[Guest sanji]

Background on me : *born SEPTEMBER 90* photographic memory*

I remember almost 90% of everything said.

When are you afraid of the dark got dropped of the air i cried for like 2 days.( i was le sad)

To me fair about power rangers tommy did eventually become the red ranger.

And yes I was so glad when the spice girls fell. Serves the right for their damned catchy tunes( i have an older sister)

This has to be said Ninja turtles pwn Power Rangers

Also 1996 i started to say ninjas own pirates* later became ninjas pwn pirates.

[Guest PirateNiNjA]

ive seen this before but i never get tired of it *born in 89* man i remember pretty much all of them and ive always said the 90s were the best. im still stuck in the 90s with my grungesque look and my love of ripped jeans and the smile the cames to my face when i think about my LA lights that i had in preschool the OG of light up shoes.

i was the biggest power ranger freak ever black and green were my faves i hated red and still do *GRRR* red is my least fav color and of course he had to be the leader RAWR jerk, the actor became a gay pornstar LMAO

trini (the original yellow ranger) died in 2001 in a car accident, tommy the green/white/red ranger is still on the show and is now "the professor"/the black ranger.

who else thinks TV in the 90s OWNS TV now?

I DO!!!!

[Guest Ayame]

Has anyone played Math blaster?

[Freelancer]

Yeah I know or have done almost everything there I am not suprised...

Yall should see my first game boy I still have that grey one with the purple buttons... ah I miss the old day I feel sorry for anyone not born in the 90's.

Let me speak for all of us when I say I watched captain planet...

I think the rings were earth, water, fire, wind....

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

In school, but what I remember most was the CD you bought to take home for your Compaq Windows 95 (that was totally spanin'!) with brand new AOL Dail-up access, so that you could play this little game about how an evil witch-queen had taken over Funland, and learning would defeat her!

[Cloudnine]

Mmm...I used to LOVE ADORE Captain Planet. >.> And...Johnny Quest, and the Thundercats...<---I think those were the names. I also remember...Magic Schoolbus and Reading Rainbow, but we watched those in school.

And...Oregon Trail- It was a school project once...my little 'character' died, and I was the leader, so the entire wagon party failed. XD

Mmmm...and the Pokemon fad...it was crazy. I remember having my shiny Charizard get stolen...like...a gajillion times. Some guy kept getting it back for me. ^-^ And...I absolutely adored my shiny Arcanine, Flareon, and Moltres cards!

[Guest Rara-chan]

Everythign Pokemon was banned from my school. XD

Like, I mean, everything. o.o

[Takius]

I remember that Oregon Trail was DA BOMB. ...I spammed the gather veggies button. >.> xD

[Guest SpionKop]

Like a year or so ago, I heard that...Miami song...by Will Smith on the radio and I got really excited. I kind of miss the 90's and I kind of don't, but the music certainly rocked D:.
