Nostalgia has a place in everyone's hearts, but no one floods the internet with their sentiments about the past as much as 90s kids. The 90s, after all, were a magical time when playing silly games outside all day met the development of modern technologies that have shaped and molded us into who we are now. And proud about it we are. However, since no age group spends online as much time as we do, cut us some slack, why don't you?

Many things made our childhood special — the CD player that wouldn't fit into any pocket, the legendary Tamagotchi, and hilarious 90s fashion that seem to have re-born nowadays quite seriously and not in the form of hilarious memes (much to our dismay). Most of these 90s nostalgia relicts are hardly available now, so we have to keep their memories alive. And what better way to do so than creating funny memes? Scroll down to check out the nostalgic selection of 90s trend that will instantly send every kid of the decade down the memory lane and upvote your favorites.

    My daughter started this and then she wouldn't finish it, they would get hungry, sick and die. I started feeling sorry for them and took over raising the last one I found she had begun. After I got it finished and it became an adult. I hid the game on her. Lmao

    My husband, when he was a child, enjoyed making the poor virtual animal die in the most cruel ways, not feeding him, ceasing to cuddle, ceasing to clean it. it was a unique cruelty with that poor little dog. but I forgot it around, maybe at school or friends. much better my real cats who take me to head if I do not feed him.

    I had a bet with a friend that she would quit smoking for as long as I could keep my pet alive. It lasted a really long time... like three months? When it finally died I didn't tell her for a few days until she asked about it. Turned out she'd also started smoking again a few days back without telling me. Ah well. I'm pretty sure she did eventually kick the habit.

    Nsync, Back Street Boys, U2, Nirvana, Metallica, Guns n Roses, The Verve, Savage Garden, Santana and hundreds of such more awesome bands. Thousand times better then todays crappy EDM and other techno nonsense. Glad to be born in that era. And Sorry how can I forget BRYAN ADAMS.
