Growing up in the ‘90s was pretty much unbeatable. You’d rush home from school to catch cartoons on the family TV, then head back outside to ride bikes around the neighborhood until the streetlights came on. Backstreet Boys and Spice Girls tracks blasted from every radio station while VHS tapes piled up next to the couch. Honestly, it was a golden decade in recent history.

To relive those simpler times, we gathered some funny and relatable posts from the Facebook group ‘90s Babies Only. Scroll down to check them out and see how many memories they bring back.

    Did flares come back in the late 90's? I missed it entirely.

    Met up with an old school friend last night. He brought along another friend. School friend mentioned the ridiculous books being sold on Amazon these days. He mentioned he had seen that someone had written Clippy erotíca. I immediately said, "I'd read that!" School friend and his other friend gave me very strange looks XD

    And, besides the gym, in the storage of sports equipment, you could, sort of, play live-action Mario. We did this in 8th grade, usually high as a kite. Good times!

    I downloaded so many things on Limewire and Napster, it's a wonder that I didn't get every single virus and trojan and rootkit in existence XD But no, we didn't have any issues with this kind of thing until decades later when my sister downloaded a ransomware attachment in her email and I had to wipe the computer and reinstall the OS... XD

    NEVER do that to music. mp3 is worthless noise, good enough for a doorbell or fire siren, but music deserves the storage it needs. As cheap as it is today, the excuses for the very existence of mp3 aren't valid. Never were, but today, this should be way less of a question.

    Like so many other situations, I've drawn myself (Lakota) in this exact situation before XD One of the days when my sister is on her many vacations and I'm running the family business with my mom, and my mom remarks that I'm up unusually early... when the truth is I never went to sleep at all XD (art in below comment)

    The amount of 1st gen pokemon things I had that went to my little cousin just before going to the military (that my overly religious grandmother ended up destroying) makes me sad to think how much money I could have had had I kept it all...
