50 Posts About The Good Old ‘90s That Today’s Kids Probably Wouldn’t Understand (New Pics)
We haven’t cracked time travel yet. But while jumping into the future is definitely off-limits, going back in time? That we can do—at least in spirit.
Old toys, photos, movies, clothes, and random memorabilia can instantly transport us to another era. When those are out of reach, though, there’s one place that never fails: the internet. And few corners do nostalgia better than r/90s, a community dedicated to everything from that unforgettable decade.
So here are some of their best posts. Let them bring back a few memories you didn’t know you missed.

The Australian version showed young people who were missing, and years later it began to be realised that a lot of them were victims of Ivan Milat, the ''Backpacker M******r''. >.<
I Will Never Understand Why They Got Rid Of These Sunrooms
And It Must Pop, Pop, Pop!
The Time Where Having Walkman Feels Like Having An iPhone
I remember how we complained so much when we had to rewind a tape. It seemed to take so much time but didn't take that much time. Seems so trivial now. I still have VHS movies and watch them. Some of them takes less time to get to the movie than having to put up with the unskippable ads and intros on some DVDs.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) !
5000 Windows Pop Up All At Once
I was seldom allowed on the computer and never allowed on the internet without my mom right there, hovering and usually taking over for me. There's actually a commercial in the late 90s or 2000s,I recall, that depicted a mother at the computer with her teenage daughter in a playpen, and the mother is asking the daughter what music to download and burn onto a CD. Then the mom is like "You're not trying to download any of that rap music, are you?" I could swear whoever came up with that commercial knew my home life. (It actually may have been a Street Cents skit, a show for youth covering all sorts of issues.)
The Only Thing Hotter Than My Pentium II… Was The Winamp Visualizer
Called 123 I Think
I'm glad Kids Help phone still exists. My daughter called it one time when she was distressed by a friend and didn't know what to do.
'90s Starters Jackets
The Warner Bros. Studio Store (1991-2001)
i miss these themed store fronts. Rarely was ever able to afford anything in these stores, but I loved window shopping. We didn't have the Warner Bros store, but we had The Disney Store with the stuffy mountain and a screen showing movies.

Really Miss The Goth Craze In The 90s
Arachnophobia (1990) !
Choose Which Tech Design From This Period Was Best
Tamagotchi. If we went back a bit more to the earlier 90s, it'd be the Sega Master System game controller, or Reebok Pumps. Always wanted a pair of those!
A High School Student
This is why I liked Degrassi Junior High and Degrassi High. Real teenagers used for casting, who wore their own clothes and they had input in the script so that their lines were what real teens would say.

Action Figure Haul From Flea Market
I am in possession of my brother's collection of original TMNT action figures, including all of the first editions of the turtles, the sewer playset, and the Technodrone playset, among others. Unfortunately they were heavily played with, so nothing in collector's condition. As kids we played together that the turtles and the Ponies saved the day from the evil Barbies :D
Kurt Cobain & Ronald Mcdonald (1992)
Field Day Ribbons
You can still do that. NIST phone time (303) 499-7111. It's a great way to check the accuracy of a stopwatch using a 24 hour interval. Ideally you'd want to use one of those old fashioned land lines.

My son got one of these for Christmas last year....
Average Cost Of Living In 1995
That's my income today, and a house is a million dollars now. Rent went from 550 a month to 1,500 for one bedroom. Don't get me started on eggs.
Ah Yes. The Classic After-School Beverage Set For Some Kidswb Watching
There was more flavours back then. But it all tasted too sugary. I'm glad Clearly Canadian made a comeback. Now we just need Snapple Elements back.

It would be so cool to show more stuff from countries other than the USA.
BP gets these from Reddit posts. If you can, start posting stuff on Reddit and it may reach BP eventually.
Load More Replies...Oh come on, no pogs and slammers? Surely that was still a thing in the 90s. I had a huge tote of pogs and my brother gave me his metal slammer (one of the large ones that looks more like a weight you use to calibrate a scale than the thin metal ones that look like pogs). Maybe it was an 80s thing, because I DID get most of mine from my brother who was late 80s.
