Shawn Harper was born in the '80s, grew up in the '90s, and is now running an online project called Saturday Morning Nostalgia for everyone who shares the timeline.

Be it about movies, video games, food, or other important aspects of a kid's everyday life, Harper's content evokes the cherished memories of yesteryear and transports us back to when the world seemed like it was filled only with joy and innocence, a world that was simpler and brimming with excitement at every turn.

    Nah.... I had a dictaphone (my mom's old one. It's from the early 80s I think) and I'd record myself singing my fav songs and then re-play the tape and sing duets with myself. 😂 obviously only at home. And when my mom was not there.

    This is so true. Childhood looked a lot easier before the internet became so ingrained in our lives. A NES, a soda, some probably toxic levels of sugar and a bike. Had everything we needed.

    I remember getting one after saving up my allowance and keeping it in a ziploc bag. I'm not kidding when I say that thing took my tongue down a few layers and I'm not sure it's ever recovered.

    One time I went to a cave full of pre-Hispanic cave paintings in Cuba and the guy outside handed me this exact flashlight (you can only use red light inside because it's home to a colony of bats).
