Watch out every company is watching you and stealing your data to target you. Really? Then figure out what commercials and ads would actually interest me already!

I remember watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The ads were yogurt, tampons, herbal shampoo, maxi pads, acne rinse, tampons. And I was thinking, "I might not be the target demographic. I mean, I eat yogurt. But I've never seen a guy in a yogurt commercial.

Hulu is way worse than anything I've seen. The ads I get there are all for sports book betting, antidepressants aimed at women, and for men they have ads for sex-aids. Bring back the ads for toys like the bonsai color ball blaster. I wanted that water gun so badly.

    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.

    According to the creator of the new BBC One period comedy The Power of Parker, it's the desire for a simpler time when life seemed easier that fuels our enthusiasm for content about the 1980s and 1990s. 

    Parker's creator, Paul Coleman, believes people tend to crave nostalgia when facing adversity. "Times are tough at the minute with [challenges like] the cost of living ... Most things you look back nostalgically at you do with rose-tinted spectacles ... you remember the good times – there's a bit of that going on," he said.

    I don't know some of those plastic ones can shoot you out dangerously fast. In the summer they can get darn hot too. At least the metal one just burned your butt, the plastic is like a full body oven.

    I now just shoot the scroll all the way to the oldest year at the end, cuz I know mine will be way closer to that. I will say though. For the ones that have a cutoff year, like "1980 or older", it is spooky seeing my year get closer and closer to the cutoff point for the ones that update those annually.

    Coleman was a teenager in the 1990s himself, so he looks back at the era with a smile on his face, but he thinks younger generations who weren't even born then feel the appeal of the period too: "Things seemed a bit simpler because we had less noise. But also because they think, 'I would've been able to pay rent, that would've been amazing' because it's really impacting that generation."

    Facing uncertainties such as the climate crisis, he said it was perhaps no surprise youngsters are harking back even though the Brit said "I was living through Thatcher at that time and ... thinking 'this is dire,' particularly for northern communities.

    Oh uh it was still some at 8. Mostly computer itself and kids sites until about 11 or 12 when it was early (sfw) teen stuff then around 13 for fb. Got a phone (nokia brick) around 11 bc HS (Aus) and then a few years later a smartphone when they stopped being so expensive and I wanted one (which took a bit for me to want one, nokia makes some good phones. There's even a purple slide one!!) Edit: I was born '97 but in a slightly rural Aus so I do remember time before smartphones (which came out 2007) and used landline (and computer internet - but not really wifi until leased adult) the most until about 14. All in all I think the balance was good.

    When I was about 6 I had a Forever Friends poster above my bed (if you didn't have them in the US, they were 2 giant peach-coloured bears). I used to have a recurring nightmare where I'd be walking along the bank of a river with the bears, and the crocodile from Peter Pan would come out and drag off one of the bears to eat. I was at the climax of this nightmare one night when the poster fell on top of me. Never been more scared in my life, and I've been through some s**t lol

    Scotch tape doesn’t hold forever—-for anything you wanted it to hold up for a long time. Otherwise, it was permanent. If you got it on something you didn’t want taped, it would stick like crazy. Eventually it would yellow with age, of course, but never come unstuck.

    As Coleman pointed out, the decade was not without violence and tragedy, including the Bosnian genocide, the Rodney King beating and subsequent L.A. Riots, the bombing of the World Trade Center, and the Columbine High School shooting.

    Still, the decade is often remembered as relatively peaceful and prosperous: the Soviet Union fell and the rise of the Internet ushered in a radical era of communication, business, and entertainment.

    I have found many rolls of undeveloped film and disposable cameras but scared to have them developed. Say you go and pick up said photos and you end up being questioned or getting in trouble. They found pics of a toddler in the bath or something but you are the child in the photos, could you still be charged with crimes against children?

    However, some think that our fascination with the 1990s might also be a bit of a fad.

    "Every generation looks back at past trends," said Dr. Renee Middlemost, a Lecturer in Global Communication and Media at the University of Wollongong's Faculty of Law, Humanities and the Arts.

    "I believe it has something to do with the way people are watching media these days. With platforms like Netflix around, people recommend shows to each other, and there are less people seeking out new things. Our tastes seem to have narrowed.

    They were eventually replaced with eggs. The babies, as disruptive as they were, made more sense. It did disrupt their home life, and they were less likely to glamorize being a teen mom like the TV show. Birth control at its finest.

I'm born in 1984 but my childhood was jigsaw puzzles, dinosaurs, the Beatles, whodunit-shows on the TV (watched them with my mom), and books. Lol. I don't think I ever even turned on a computer besides the few times we were told to write a paper for class. But since I was at boarding school in 2000/2001 I have been fond of computers as well.

    Whatever the case might be, the 1990s still seem preferable to what came next: the worst terror attack on U.S. soil, two long and inconclusive wars, two stock market crashes, and a financial crisis that precipitated a deep recession. After the '90s, said Kevin Howley, a DePauw University communication professor, "It's as if history jumped a track.''

    Intellivision. It came with plastic overlays for the controller in each game, so you'd be able to see which buttons did what in each game. Dungeons and Dragons was my favorite. You were looking for two parts of a crown that the dragons stole. You'd click a mountain to enter its dungeon. As you traveled through the tunnels, new ones would open up. Each room had the chance for a monster. The thing was, each monster had a sound effect. If you listened, you'd know whether or not there was a monster in the room you were about to enter. I loved that my brother didn't realize this.

    Intellivision was awesome, but brutal on my thumbs. Especially with the boxing game. We'd play it so hard that the sensor under the control disc would wear through. Eighties tech at its finest.

I don't know what it did to her, but it set the mood for the day! She never had slippers but she had a nightgown.

    As a kid I would get so hungry during a day at the pool/beach/etc, presumably due to burning a huge amount of calories. Why though do I not remember ever being sore the next day? Muscle fiber tearing and lactic acid buildup or whatever makes muscles sores surely also applies when young..?

    I always thought that the 30 min wait rule was bogus until....5 years ago, RIGHT after eating a bunch of Chinese food I jumped in the pool at the hotel I was staying at and as soon as I hit the water my muscles decided they were gonna mutiny. I have never had full body cramps at once and I was so lucky that I jumped in semi close to the ladder. So yeah..not bogus.

    I was working at the local mall and bought a platypus for about $6 just because I thought it was cool. This was just before Beanie Babies became a phenomenon--it was literally just a bunch of wooden tables set up in the middle of the mall; I assumed someone was sewing these things in their basement. A few years later, I saw my first generation platypus listed in a Beanie Baby guide for $1300--if only I'd had the sense to sell before the bottom fell out of the market. Of course, this was also before eBay, so finding a buyer would have been tricky...

    My brothers and I tried so hard to get past the yeti. My brother has a lil tattoo of it.

    Can't help myself, but SpongeBob seems out of place here to me. Most stuff here is about the 90s while SpongeBob is more a 2000s thing

    Yeah, the first episode aired in 2000, so as much as it was a part of the '90s kid life, it was definitely not a 90s thing.

    This barely existed in the 90s. It came out in 1999..but I approve because it's SpongeBob 😆

    I'm too old for SpongeBob, but I love the irony that one of the scariest movie villains of the 80's--Clancy Brown as the Kurgan from the original Highlander--has now become the voice of many beloved cartoon characters in the 2000's.

    As an immature adult, these stickers are making me laugh like an idiot. Except for Scary Spice, who's biting...Scary is making me wince. No teeth, please and thank you

    These were SUCH a pain to collect for my sister and me, cuz there was only one place in our entire area that sold chupa chups. It was way out of the way at this fancy mall that catered more to rich snowbirds and tourists.

    Mid-thirties? Try early twenties. 3 are still in their 40s now!

    I don't even know what those 2nd 2 are. When I started playing Super Mario Bros it was at the 7-11 down the street.
