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.

    Amazing that after all these years any mention of The Neverending Story and my mind goes straight to Artax sinking the Swamp of Sadness. No one remembers how the movie ended by we all know that one scene.

    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

    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.
