HaHa, and to think, now you are a stoner!

I was born in 1992 (which makes me 14 now), so I don't remember the early 90's, but I remember most of the things on that list...
My parents thaught that video games were spawns of satan or something like that... so all I had was an NES, or SNES, I don't remeber which one, and then later on i got an N64, and a Gameboy Color. I had a furbie and it would make noises all night and keep us up, so my dad ended up removing the batteries from it.
I remeber my mom taping the saturday morning shows for me because I never could wake up in time. I think magic schoolbus was my favorite.
Well.. I guess the 90's were OK, but I'm glad they have passed...

And what is that about white dog turds? wtf???

are you talking about bobbys world?

This thread is fucking awesome. It does put you in a great mood, but also a very nastalgic (sp) one. You start to recall those things in your head, and it really brings you back to what I'd say were the "good old days." Most of us were kids, with no worries or problems. Thanks for that man. Good times....Good times....

Haha, that reminded me...I don't think I'll ever forget the "Blood Code" for the original Mortal Kombat for Sega.....ABACABB....LOL I haven't played that in like 10 years at least.

Oh man, this thread is da bomb. I don't have time to read the WHOLE thing right now, but everything I've read is so 'right on'. Wow! I remember ALL of that stuff man.

I was the sh*t on Mortal Kombat. Remember the Sandman in Mike Tyson's Punchout?

Transformers

ATARI

Building "forts" in the woods

Smear the queer

Midnight (tag)

Etc...

Wow, very cool memories. Awesome.

TGF

i actually related to most of those. nice.

Wow man, I remember a whole bunch of that stuff!

Damn...

back in the day in my area all the kids were into
stealing the cadillac signs off the hoods of cars
and using em like key chains or necklaces
the mercedes ones were popular [especailly the gold ones]

also tagging was the shit

the richard bey show was the first crazy one like jerry springer

I don't know about the US, but in the UK, there was a console out called Commadore Amiga. That was better (in some ways) than the ATARI.

Ah man reading that made me sad.

Haha I remember Kenan and Kell, All That, Clarissa Explains it all, SNICK, airwalks, street hockey, recess that lasted what seemed hours, exploring the woods, playing on the swingset in my backyard and seeing who could jump the farthest, Happy Days, Figure it Out, Nerf, and so much more.

This should be a stickey thread.

We used to get our snowclothes on when school was closed, stand on the corner, and grab onto cars' bumpers/spoilers and "ski" down the road. Very dangerous...do not try this at home. You might lose a limb...:eek:

Also, of course we had snowball fights (beware of the ice-filled snowballs - f*ckers), snow football, etc.

Marval Trading cards...

Silver Surfer, Woverine, etc. I used to have a huge collection...stolen. :(

Who remembers the Adventures of Pete and Pete? That show pretty much shaped me into the man I am today. That and Pee-Wee's Playhouse.

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: i was so pissed when they stopped playing pete and pete.... i remember the episode about the time change where they said you could take back one whole hour of your life and live it over again, and i remember the hoover dam trip, and the fourth of july one, where littler pete gets grounded, but that's not gonna keep him in, he tunnels his way through his room and out through the yard, but ends up getting caught anyways and the one where one of 'em (think the younger one) tries to break the guiness book of world records for staying awake the longest, and ends up passing out like just hours before breaking it... lol... i loved that show :( that was my fav show...

I was born in 83 i remember alot of the stuff from the list but some of it wasn't on/available in England.

I remember when we first got cherry coke, i was like :confused:. "Coke with Cherries?"

Good times, i miss being a kid.

What an awesome thread! I was born in the early 80's and grew up in the 90's. In the 90's was the first time I got drunk, smoked weed, lost my virginity. I listened to grunge music like Nirvana, Peal Jam, Mudhoney, Tad, Alice in Chains, and in the 90's was the first time I heard Pantera, which turned me in a whole different direction of music.

I remeber watching Alf, Growing Pains, Cosby Show, Astro Boy, Inspector gadget, and of course the Simpsons, when they were at their prime, and when Bart Simpson said Hell or Eat My Shorts on TV, it was considered a bad influence on kids. When the word Motherfucker was said at least 30 times in a Snoop Dogg song. Rapping out 40's, Endo, and smacking hoes around. :p

Computers and technology changed so much since the 80's, and in the 90's, it was like a Technology Revolution or something.

I loved the 90's, espeically losing my virginity to my first, junior high GF. She was damn hot! And we fucked like rabbits. It was awesome. :p

Invisable Cola was discovered, and Jolt soda drinks that would get me so wound up. Candy nerds, blue whales, gobstoppers, and pixi sticks.

Upgrading my 512kb Amiga to a full 1mb - holy crap I thought I was the schnizzle.

I was too young for a car otherwise it would have been a clapped out escort with an RS body kit.

Crap, that sounded a bit pikey

Garbage pal stickers.....he he.....i remember swapping loads of cards for a pair of handcuffs at primary school........everyone was asking me to lock them up for fun!!!! I lost the key for them with a young lad cuffed to the mobile classroom stairs......everyone in the school had to come out and we combed the whole school,ended up getting the fire brigade out to cut him free....i was only 10 and scared shitless...........saying that the lad who was cuffed is probably scarred for life seeing a hack saw coming to his hand......lol
Oh memories

dont forget that pop music

and The Magic School Bus kicked a lot of ass

orbits (those drinks with the little yellow balls that were suspended in it)

the snow storm of 91 (if u grew up in the midwest u member that fucker. like 4 feet of snow on halloween)

trading football cards after lunch in elementry school

kick ball (i hated the bitchs that would fake us all out by only tapping the ball so we had to run up on it and get it)

born in 1991 i love th 90's best years in the world for me

well than im sure you remember the flood of '97, on the red river valley

I also remeber Pogs. I remeber this one kid in the entire school borught some one day, and the next day, everyone had them. I still have a Poison Slammer and Pogs in a box. :p

I remember El Nino happened. We had harsh winters, I mean, like 5-8 ft of snow on our lawn and backyard alone, but ever since El Nino happened, the winters have been getting shorter and milder.

I remeber that harsh ice storm they had in Ontario. Power was out for weeks and the entire province was a sheet of ice. The trees, cars, roads, buildings, everything was ice. It was fucked.

On snow days when you would wake up and turned on the news to see if school was cancelled, and if it was, all the kids in the neighborhood would go sledding or make forts in the snow piles the plows would make.

i was unfortunate =/ i've lived my entire life in texas, i never really saw snow til like last year, and then it was like at most a 1/2 inch, but it was enough for me and my bro to make snowballs, that's probably the best nostalgic (sp?) memory of the 00's for me... but this is about the 90's! i remember when riding your bikes in pouring rain and getting your back as wet as possible (you know how the rear tire always flung water up when you'd go through a puddle at high speed) didn't make you look like an idiot... i remember when the neighbor hoods were safe to play in all night... i remember when shootings were rare, and big news (i doubt that would go for every area tho) i remember the adventures me and friends would go on, just to see what was on the other side of the city... hell i remember it all and miss it dearly.

i stilll have a tube (that's what the people who had alot of pogs kept them in) of pogs somewhere in the attic with those fat ass slammers that are clear if you look through them sideways but if you look down there's an image.... ahh man i have a heavy heart now, i miss my childhood so dearly, but for some reason the only thing you can think about as a kid is getting older, then when you're older all you can think of is being younger and having happier times.

i even remember how i lost fate in santa clause.... i found a die cast rig under my grandparents bed, then a week later i mysteriously get the same thing from santa clause and the one under the bed is gone... i was always a smart kid... i was only 6 or 7...

anybody else feeling that warmth inside of you after reading this thread and getting those chills...? i remember spoons.... where you'd take those slightly bendable cafateria spoons, bend them at the end you hold and take turns trying to break the other persons actual spoon part... i was always a damn champion, the trick was to aim about a half inch up from the tip of the spoon and pull back as fast as possible, til your spoon almost bends and becomes unusable and letting it go, all within a second.... i won alot of pizza doing that..

i remember when school was actually fun to go to, because it wasn't all just work, there was recess and plenty to do... and the weekly trips to the library, i'd always get an oragami book... and when that all that mattered about your school work was you tried hard, succeed or fail, and there was no worry about money, ever....

i wonder if anyone's actually shed a tear after reading this thread...

people with metal slammers sucked. they would always fuck up my pogs

did any of you ever figure out the trick to pogs... i did... but i'm not sharing my secret on this <.<

hell yea, i shed a few tears after this... my buddy billy sent it so me, we we just had fun, sending messages back and forth, rembering the good old days... heres another thing i just remberd... whne you would walk around, and find all of the pennys you could find, and go into the store with your pockets buldging with pennys mostly, and buying like 3 dollars worth of things, and then end up with a long ass like of people behind you while u were trying to count out your pennys, and then some one saying fuck and handing you a 5 dollar bill just to get you out of the way, if i would have kept all of the change from all of the 5 dollar bills people had ever gave me, i would be rich right now

lol i never did that... i've always found pennies quite pointless, actually... i thought of opening a store where the motto was: if you want the pennies in your change you must ask for them... i'd call it the penny-free store... lol

90's was Da BOMB! lol

yea, thats the way i look at them now, but when i was a kid, being in the higher part of the lower class... or lower middle class... we didnt always have monney for a candy bar every time we went to the store.

This makes me miss the 90s. I wasn't a teen in the 90s but I grew up during them and I remember alot of that suff.

Holy shit this thread is from today and already 4 pages long...I can see why though.

Yeah man, I remember all that shit.

Its amazing how much has changed within the past 16 years. I almost feel like an old person whos like "back in my day we had 8-tracks!" only it'd be more like "yeah I used to have a walkman" cause no one uses tapes anymore.

I miss old simpsons...Used to watch it every day about at 6pm when we had dinner. Hey...but what about Rocko's Modern World!? I remember that show in addition to Ahhh real monsters, Doug, Ren and Stimpy, etc.

holey shit i was born in 91 about 75% of that shit was my life, this thread was like a trip to the past. two stupid dogs was my favorite show man. i dont know if you said sega genisis or game gear but that was the shit. thanks for the thread :thumbsup:

i agree with you on this whole post... i was born in 90, and i had one of the original cd players, that if you breathed in any way or form while the head phones were on your ears, and the tape player was in the other room, it would skip... billions and billions of tapes, espcialy when they first came out with cd players/disk men....

on another note... i feal as tho i have cotributed something good to these forms... and i actualy agree with this being a sticky... and it would be kool if some one could find theses for the older guys around....

Born in 87'. Great thread to reminisce about our childhoods. I can't believe you mentioned Oregon Trails, I would always finish my computer work in class quickly to get to play this game. The nineties were much more simpler than now, not to mention that there wasn't so much stupid shit going around in the media than nowadays.
