Missing the 90's


You're a 90's kid if:

You've ever ended a sentence with the word "PSYCHE!"

You just cant resist finishing this... "Iiiiiiin west philladelphia born and raised..."

You remember TGIF on ABC and wouldnt miss it

HAHAHAHAHAH!!!! down town baby down by the roller coster sweet sweet baby Ill never let you go..chimie chiemie cocoa puffs chimmie chimmie rock, chimmie chimiie cocoa puffs chimmie chimmie rock.....

"Go Home Rodger"!!!

You know that "WOAH" comes from Joey from "Blossom" and that "How Rude!"comes from Stephanie from "Full House"

You remember when it was actually worth getting up early on a Saturday to watch cartoons.

You got super excited when it was Oregon Trail day in computer class at school.

You begged for some GAK, and when you got that they came out with scented GAK, and when you got that they came out with funny scented GAK.....

You remember reading "Goosebumps"

You took plastic cartoon lunch boxes to school.

You danced to "Wannabe" by the Spice Girls, Females: had a new motto, Males: got a whole lot gay-er. (so tell me what you want, what you really really want.)

You watched Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, Nsync Jessica Simpson, BBMak, B-Witched and Ateens in concert on Disney Channel and thought it was the coolest thing ever!

You watched Britney Spears on the mickey mouse club

You remember the craze, then the banning of slap bracelets and slam books.....

You still get the urge to say "NOT" after (almost) every sentence...Not...

You used to listen to the radio all day long just to record "Your FAVORITE song of ALL time"....with a tape recorder held up to the radio loL!!

Where in the world is Carmen San Diego? was both a game and a TV game show.

Captain Planet.

You knew that Kimberly, the pink ranger, and Tommy, the green Ranger were meant to be together. (this was meant for young 80s children)

When playing power rangers with friends you fought over who got to be who............and still all ended up being Tommy.

You remember when super nintendo's became popular.

You always wanted to send in a tape to America's Funniest Home Videos... but never taped anything funny.

You remember watching home alone 1, 2 , and 3........and tried to pull the pranks on "intruders"

"I've fallen and I can't get up"

you remember stick stickly on nickoloden

You remember going to the skating rink before there were inline skates

Two words... Trapper Keeper.

You wore socks over leggings scrunched down

"Cinderella dressed in yella, went upstairs to kiss a fella, made a mistake and kissed a snake how many dr's did it take."

You though Nike Air really did make you jump like Air Jordan

Bell"

You played and/or collected "Pogs"

You had at least one Tamagotchi, GigaPet or Nano and brought it everywhere

You watched the original Care Bears, My Little Pony, and Ninja Turtles

Yikes pencils and erasers were the stuff!

All your school supplies were "Lisa Frank" brand.(pencils.notebooks.binders.etc.)

You remember when the new Beanie Babies and talking Elmo were always
sold out.

You used to wear those stick on earings, not only on your ears, but at the
corners of your eyes.

You remember a time before the WB.

You've gotten creeped out by "Are You Afraid of the Dark?"

You know the Macarena by heart.

"Talk to the hand" ... enough said

You always said, "Then why don't you marry it!"

When we were younger:

Before the MySpace frenzy...

Before the Internet & text messaging...

Before Sidekicks & iPods...

Before MIKE JONES...

Before PlayStation2 or X-BOX...

...Back when you put off the 5 hours of homework you had every night.

When light up sneakers were cool.

When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.

When gas was $0.95 a gallon & Caller ID was a new thing.

When we recorded stuff on VCRs & paid $3.50 for a movie.

When we called the radio station to request songs to hear off our
walkmans.

When 2Pac and Biggie where alive.

When the Chicago Bulls were the best team ever.

Way back.

Before we realized all this would eventually disappear

Who would have thought you'd miss the 90's so much!!!!!

You got this from facebook, didn't you? ;)
Actully got this from a wonderful forward from my wonderful friend Kristen sent to me... then I tweaked it a bit ;)
All I can say is that indeed brought back a lot of memories...and helped me to remember how much of a geek I am, cause I could laugh at EVERY SINGLE ITEM know PRECISELY what you were talking about (cause, forget "when the New Kids on the Block were cool"; I remember when they were NEW since my first 8 years were spent in the 80s LOL)
Dude, you're old ;) Just kidding, but yeah, I knew about 90% of what I posted and laughed at all of them because I almost wish I was back in that time period... it was so nice to worry more about what NICK shows were going to be on rather than papers, politics, polution, prejudice, and profits. *sigh* To be 9 again!
