“We Didn’t Have Therapy, We Just Had These”: 50 Hilariously Relatable Memes For Millennials Who Miss The 90s (New Pics)
If you remember slap bracelets, Tamagotchis, scrunchies and Solitaire, there's a good chance that you grew up in the 90s.
What a time to be alive... The golden era before TikTok trends, viral tweets, meme culture and WhatsApp groups. We lived through awkward school photos, dial-up internet, Windows 95 start-up sounds, questionable fashion choices and old school telephones.
There's no doubt 1990s was great but it was also gloriously weird. And the daily experiences of kids from back then have somehow become comedy gold for the kids of today. Often in the form of hilarious memes that perfectly capture the chaotic, colorful spirit of decade.
Many can be found on an Instagram account called 90sKidz90s. The account has over 282,000 followers and markets itself as "for everyone who still dreams about being on Legends of the Hidden Temple." Bored Panda has put together a list of the best to remind you that while the decade is long gone, its memory lives on forever.

No lie seeing that back in the day was satisfying in a way few things in life are.
My grandma had actual cookies in hers. To this day eating a few of those cookies with some tea and condensed milk when I visited her is the most calming perfect memory ever. My other granny, aunts, and my mom used them as sewing kits though. As it should be.
I tried hose water last summer - because I had a new hose. It still tastes the same and was mildly enjoyable, like a nondescript cookie you haven't tasted since childhood.
The teeter totter was close, but if it's not the whirly go round you had more boring parents than me.
This is how we thought the 2000s would become. Everything would be a Jetson's world. Or at least like in Back To The Future 2.
I never read any of these but a girl I dated who had a lot of religious guilt had tons of them, plus this book called "you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube" which, if i remember correctly, was basically a book s**t shaming every girl ever who was sexually active while being raised Christian. Amongst other shaming. Have to read it again to be sure but at the time I remember thinking that book was just f****d. *I never read the whole thing and definitely won't revisit it. But I'm pretty sure it was fucky regardless.
In junior school - UK, so less than10 years old - I told my teacher I could do better cutting out "if I had a decent pair of scissors."
I'm a guy but I own two air fryers and I did love my cousins easy bake back in the day. Also definitely was way too hyped when I first got an air fryer. I'm gonna try not to say back in the day anymore on this article but uh.... it'll probly happen.
I still have mine from grades 7-12. Decorated with pictures of friends and magazine cutouts of boy bands 😆
Won a Sony Shockwave in a radio contest at like 16. I pitied the fools who had to worry about their discman skipping.
Yoo bad the whole game turned out to be a scam. I was so angry after I saw the documentary about how it was really run. One family made millions while we hoped.
I bought a giant like 100 pack of slim Jim's *as a stoner teen and it didn't last long. The memories of the after math will never be forgotten though. Probly didn't help I also had an economy sized giant box of wine gums I ate with it.
My mom forced me into acting when I was a kid (living her dreams vicariously AND she wanted me to make a ton of money for her) and she used to schlep me to acting classes in Los Angeles several times a week. Usually in the classes we would practice a script or monologue while the teacher recorded us, then at the end of the class we'd watch our own recording while the teacher critiqued us. I HATED watching myself for some reason, and I eventually developed this hatred/disgust of hearing my own voice that persists to this day XD I cannot STAND hearing my own voice. I'd probably have smashed this toy if anyone had given it to me XD
Unfortunately I was a math wiz and everyone hated me (except for study groups). Until I found Guitars and smoking you know what.
My dad once walked past me while I was playing the original GTA. (I was 16.) He stopped and watched as I stole a car, ran over a couple of pedestrians, and then started speeding around the city trying to evade the police. He was quiet for a while, and then said in a thoughtful voice, "You know you can't do that in real life, right?" Yes, Dad... XD
I always always wanted to build a baja bug. Once had a chance but passed on buying the bug cause some idiot painted it with SS logos and skulls and i couldn't fathom driving a n**i themed car even if it was just home to spray paint it. Nowadays the og Beatles are so expensive. I regret not buying it, but also still wonder what idiot had painted it like that.
I had tuxpaint, I have no idea what happened to both that and club penguin
Don't really recognize 3/4ths of these. I'd rather hang with the goonies and the stand by me kids.
Wednesday does not have friends, she has victims.
Load More Replies...Camp Cariboo! (Canadian kids show) The Addams Family Values one is a very good depiction of my first time at an overnight Christian camp. Me and one other person in my cabin being the odd ones out.
Ah, the days when my jahoobies could be actually contained within a sports bra. Now they require an intricate system of levers and pulleys attached to my shoulders XD
