If you are under the age of 12... you shouldn't even read this.
Just because you were born in '97 doesn't mean you're a 90s kid.
It's not like you could remember the original Simpsons. I am sorry but three conscious years of the 90s just wont cut it.
You're a 90s kid if:
You can finish this [Ice Ice baby]
You remember watching:
- Hey Arnold
- The Bugs Bunny Show
- AAAAAAAH Real Monsters!
- Rocko's Modern Life.
You've ever ended a sentence with the word "PSYCHE!"
You remember:
- Playschool with Monica
You remember when it was actually worth getting up early
on a Saturday to watch cartoons.
You remember reading "Goosebumps".
And "Animorphs".
Paul Jennings and Andy Griffiths were the funniest authors of all time.
You watched Round the Twist!
AND POWER RANGERS!!!
You took plastic cartoon lunch boxes to school.
You said "NOT" after (almost) every sentence . . .
When everything was settled by:
- Rock, Scissors, Paper
- Dip dip...
- There's a party on the hill, would you like to come?
- Eeny, meeny, miny, mo!
When Cops & Robbers was a daily activity.
When we played Tiggy, Safe, 40/40 and Hide & Seek until our legs grew numb.
You remember those Where's Wally books.
You remember eating Warheads.
You remember Push Pops and Lucky Dips.
And YoGo gorilla... and the
original Coco Pops monkey: "It's just like a chocolate milkshake - only crunchy!"
Home-made birthday cards were cool, especially the ones where you'd cut a mouth into it so that it opened up and a tongue popped out.
Making those little paper fortune things, and then predicting your life with them.
Tamagotchis had to be banned in school because of their popularity.
Furby.
Baby Born.
You haven't always had a computer, and it was cool to have the internet.
Juice boxes where only 80cents.
"Emo" didn't exist.
and Windows 95 was the best.
You watched the original cartoons of Rugrats, Power Rangers, and Ninja Turtles.
You knew Michael Jordan was the best all-time basketballer who played for the Chicago Bulls, even though we don't follow NBA basketball.
Barbie & Ken by Mattel owned the shelves.
Playdough was the coolest stuff invented.
You understand when I say "Cheez TV".
You collected all the Troll dolls.
If you even know what a walkman is.
The original Pokemon with Ash, Misty and Brock. and pikachueee.
Before those try-hards at the Yu-Gi-Oh production plant. yess.
losers!
You've gotten creeped out by "Are You Afraid of the Dark?"
You know the Macarena off by heart.
"Talk to the hand" . . .
enough said
You always said, "Then why don't you marry it!"
and
"i know you are you said you are but what am i!?!?!"
You went to McDonald's to play in the playground, and Happy Meals only cost $2.95 for a cheeseburger, small fries and coke.
You remember playing on merry go rounds at the playground.
Before the MySpace frenzy . . .
Before the Internet & text messaging . . .
Before Sidekicks & iPods . . .
Before PlayStation2 or X-BOX . . .
Before Spongebob . . (even though i love him....
)
Back when you put off the 20 seconds of homework you had every night.
back when you went outside every night with the neighbourhood kids and rode your bikes around and pretended that peoples houses were the petrol station, maccas drive through and a place to park your "car"/"motor" bikee.
When light up sneakers were cool.
When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.
When petrol was $0.65 a litre & Caller ID was a new thing.
When you had to be one lucky kid to get a mobile phone before you were 16.
When we recorded stuff on VCRs.
Way back.
Before we realized all this would eventually disappear.
Who would have thought you'd miss the 90s so much!
