I was bron in 1992, so I'm a 90's daughter I can't do the list though... because I don't understand it at 100% so... bad for me. I do remember the car city carpet... I didn't have one (my parents didn't love me back then), but my cousin did. They were so damn fun... miss them

And @Berikyuu!, you still ride your scooter? Really? Here it's actually pretty funny and weird if you see someone riding one of those. They were extremely cool back then, though

[linniigaki]

I was born in 95, so I remember some of the stuff.

Gaaaaah I really miss the old cartoons and the old Disney... (everything pre-High School Musical was awesome ) lol I had the car carpet and a razor scooter!!!

And does anyone remember The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald VHS tapes they used to sell there? I wish I can find a clip of it, but it seems like there isn't any. :<

@FakeDejiko:
I never really got into Polly Pockets....my friends had them...but I always thought she was too small
I was always more of a Barbie kind of girl

**EDIT**
@Arche-chi:
Yup, my brother and I still have Razor scooters. Mine's in green, his is in blue.
I usually ride mine if I need to go to the convenience store (which is right down the hill where I live), and I can't get the car for some reason. So, instead of walking, it's much faster (and more fun) to take the scooter But sometimes I'll steal my brother's....his is a little bigger and newer

[deukkae]

@FakeDejiko: Oh I remember those! I begged my mom to get me one.

@BeriBeri-chan: My friend still has scooters, you're not the only one.

EDIT: Oh, and I was born in 1995.

I think this list was targeted towards the older kids born in the later 80's. I remember seeing most of the shows listed when it said "All new" in front and it wasn't a rerun.

Somehow this is making me feel old when I'm only 15 wtf

[°Cal.Mer.Sac]

90's

late 80's and early 90's was pretty much the same thing in my mind back in the day. too young to tell the difference. listening to second hand 80's love ballads from my older sister. 90's music... crappy 90's hong kong action films that were great and still are great. collecting x-men and other super hero cards thinking that i was gonna get rich off them some day. all that other stuff that people have mentioned.

dude some of you guys are really young.

[Mai17]

almost all of them

damn I'm old ....

[Azul]

I was born in 1993, and some of them are sorta American-specific but I remember most of that stuff! Haha it was so fun being little, and kids shows were actually for kids with goo and daft presenters and more goo .

[TerryXX]

loved and missed the 90's
so true about getting up early the watching cartoons, omg best part of the day lol!

[michikodesu]

Oh GOSH I'm so old!!!!

I remember every single one of those.......and actually, the cartoons were better in the 80's on Saturday mornings But I remember how much I loved watching Clarissa Explains it All and wishing I could dress like her and watching Super Sloppy Double Dare!!!


For the "pencil drop" question, to us it was a game. You would drop a pencil from a certain height (preferably above your head) and the other person would try to catch it as close to the somewhere between the tip and the middle with only two fingers. That's what we used to call pencil drops.

[Risa/Misa]

You guys know you use to play with your Segas all day long. And in Sonic Adventure 2 even if you didn't log in as player 2 you could still control tails.

[sailormari]

when you though your ps1 was the bomb and could never get better

[Scramasax]

When you thought your NES was awesome and would never get better. Sorry, this might be pre-90s.

[michikodesu]

And do I miss those days so very much.
