Growing up during the 90s was a wild ride. We got to chow down on some of the coolest snacks the planet has ever seen while listening to iconic bands that the world still loves today. Media for kids was in its absolute prime, with new DCOMs coming out nearly every month, and the internet wasn’t advanced enough to be taking up all of our time yet.

While the world has undoubtedly changed since that decade, if you’re a 90s kid who’s interested in taking a trip down memory lane, you’ve come to the right place. Below, you’ll find some of the best memes that have been shared on the Only 90s Kids Know Instagram account. Be sure to upvote the pics that transport you back to childhood, and keep reading to find a conversation with the page’s creator Jonathan Miller!

    One of the most ridiculous movie plots ever. An alien species with the technology to traverse the galaxy in search of a new planet to colonise choose Earth, a planet with its surface of 70% water, where water regularly falls from the sky and where the very atmosphere contains moisture - despite water being fatal to them?

    It was more terrifying because of the lack of special effects, in my opinion. It made it seem completely believable

    I love demons even more every time I watch this. They were idiots in the long run, but they had a great idea. Convincing people they were aliens so their obvious weakness to holy water wouldn't be exploited instantly.

    I've not watched this film in years so I may be wrong here but didn't Mel Gibsons character have an affair? It was possibly a minor subplot of the film but that's why he thought that the aliens came for him?

    It's a scene from the movie "Signs". It isn't even a jumpscare per se, but there's something so profoundly unsettling about it that it has apparently traumatized a lot of people when they saw it as kids, me included.

    Yup. Before life got sophisticated with specially made traveling carrying cases I always emptied out my school backpack and stuffed everything in and was ready to go. Stop by 7-Eleven to grab a 2 liter of Dr. Pepper and a bag of Cool Ranch Doritos and that was a Friday night.

    I didn't grow up with any rich friends with an over the top set up like this and glad I didn't. I grew up like the kids in E.T., with the cool mom that let us sit around the table and drink beer and smoke cigarettes and cuss and play cards. I'll take that over something like this picture any day. I'd be too awkward and uncomfortable around people with a setup like that. Not my kind of people.
