50 Pics And Memes About The ’90s You Have To Be Old Enough To Understand

RIP Mr. Williams... you are and will be missed!

Me. I loved to listen to Genesis and Annie Lennox and follow the lyrics

I recently bought quite an expensive polaroid camera. It turns out that with a real camera, I take terrible pictures.

You remember how fast that "bubble gum" turned into a concrete like substance?

Loved Bazooka Joe, and, yeah, that thing was usually hard as a rock. I always read the comic first!

66 yo here, I salute you

There's a reason this is a no longer around. It was terrible

Who remembers a Bazooka Joe that was humorous?

It doesn't anymore? I'm old. Also, the gum itself was c**p and I don't buy it, which explains why I didn't know it doesn't have comics anymore.

It started out as set concrete, and turned into very firm concrete until you spat it out and it became asphalt.

And the taste lasted for up to 2 minutes

If you dropped it, it shattered lol

I would chew this to simply swallow it. One time i won a "lifetime supply" of this stuff in the 80s and it was a small case. It is probably causing problems with the sewer system in my hometown as we speak.

You can still get Malabar with tattoos here, tattoos are better than comics.

So sweet it burned your throat, but we chewed it anyway.

I bet that if I put my old Nokia on now, it still has 98% battery.

I'm so much faster texting like that than on a smartphone!

As I've seen kids struggle with a mail box I fully expect them to believe you.

And still one of the best satires on TV.

Back when Pizza Hut was a dine-in restaurant

I remember when only ONE studio was named in the opening credits.

I wouldn't mind one now.

One hand and two paws raised over here.

These made for fun bath time toys, and the doctor waiting room was full of them (and Highlights magazines).

Until rhe cat figured out how to work it

From the bottom of those pants got wet it would climb all the way to your knees

I shudder just thinking about the noise. It was worse when the poster fell on your head.

And then you would pretend to shoot laser beams like Cyclops

I just heard Kevin Hart in Jumanji 2, "I'm gonna *whup* yo a*s!"

I immediately thought of that one Doctor Who episode

Let me tell you the tale of the glass salad bowl in the form of..salad leafs. Every adult (35-40yrs) household had them when I was a kid.... and when I became an adult I realized they just turn up in random 35 years old households. Noone ever bought them. Last month we went to a thrift store and there it was... Since I have no parents/grandparents I was compelled to buy it...So now, at 37 I too have a salad formed glass salad bowl.

My 22 year old son and I will still make one in the Living Room and watch some of our favorite movies while sitting in our "castle" fort!

That's a bit of a stretch. A meal was about $2.45 here in Canada

I dunno. My mom flipped out when I got home from the store for her because I thought there was enough money left over to buy myself a chocolate bar. That was a scary day for me, realizing one chocolate bar could send us to the poor house. She often said NO! a lot and much of our outings were either free or very cheap, and she fed us porridge and soup a lot.

To my ears, they rang like a bell when you bounced them.

Don't know the intended purpose, but they were great tactile resources for people with sensory needs- my brothers had them on their wheelchair trays.

The Wendy's near me still has this sunroom, but they got rid of the tables with the vintage newspaper ads, and it's kind of sad because now you can drive by and see that there's never anyone in the dining room.

I can smell this, I can hear this, I can feel this... and I'm not sure I like it

It's-- it's beautiful.

Now I use them to make pretty suncatchers

We still have it here Capture-66...16f84e.jpg

Aha! See! See! "Fancy!"

I cried when my first tamagotchi died. I had failed as a father. I was about 8.

How has the guy with the hat in the upper left corner not aged at all???

They still play that in schools.

New fear unlocked: The magic stool bus

Looks like the parents splurged for the rumble packs.

We still have them in sweden.

Still looks like this at my kids book fair where i volunteer

they were useless as pencils, but so fun.

Me, too. Including my holographic slammer!

All left handers groaning at the memory

We sold these when I worked at Spencer Gifts back in the 90's. They only held about 6 ounces and they were made out of this rubberized plastic that made everything taste funny.

I don't know about that. I thought the watermelon flavor of Bubblicious was the bomb!

You can still buy them.
