They had a HP Computer with a 6GB HDD and an old 32k modem selling for $1095 or something like that. Amazing that now you can buy a PC for under $300.

SO TRUE! And we have tablets as well, no more sucky PDAs... :P

I was The Flying Fox on Arwing Landing.

 

It's not technically the 90's, but I have posts there going back to 2004 or so. 2001, technically, but a server wipe erased those. It's basically ancient internet history.

 

I was a very bad mod.

BitF will probably get here in a few years... That is, if this thread ain't locked by then.

No joke, I've actually been on the internet since I was 6 (2003ish), when my dad got me an iMac G3. Yep, I was a 6 year old kid with a then-brand-new desktop computer (that I didn't even ask for, IIRC). And you thought 5 year-olds with iPhone 6's were spoiled! Luckily, all I ever did with it was watch funny videos on Newgrounds/eBaumsworld and read strategy guides on GameFAQ's. I didn't start posting stuff on the internet til 2011 when I entered high-school, thankfully :)

I miss a lot of things from the 90s, but at least I still have some of the stuff I've had since those days, such as the N64 and Game Boy Color.

I'm pretty sure that this damn game is responsible for at least one heart attack.

While I'm not the most nostalgic person, I will say that that and several other commercials are still seared into my memory in those spaces where I should be putting important stuff. So, instead of remembering stuff like inverse tangents and Avagadro's Number,  I can recite these commercials by heart. I hate my brain sometimes u.u

 

While I'm on the subject, Floam was arguably the biggest disappointment of my childhood. Instead of making cool shit like in the commercials, all I got was a spot on my parent's $10000 rug that never really went away (in my defense, it was a hideous rug to begin with).

For the record, Fruit Brute cereal was discontinued in 1982.

I was born in 1997. I don't know if that makes me a 90's kid, but I remember the PS2 fondly. Remember classics like Godzilla Save the Earth, Star Wars Battlefront 2, and Need for Speed: Underground 2? Those games were fucking awesome.

I only remember Banjo Kazooie in the 90's, however i do remember the early 2000's. People during those times didn't brag about being judged. Now-a-days it feels like men have become a bit sensitive when you comment or judge them. I'm not saying its ok to judge others but the media didn't give it a lot of attention back then.

 

Honestly, i miss those days... I hate turning on the "news" and seeing a report about a kid getting bullied verbally / psychically. Judgments aren't new and should not gain attention by the media 

 

The 90's were filled with  violent media (for its time), drug wars, and the gulf war yet today will have a Government wanting to know all, sensitive people / communities, and trashy media...

GoldenEye.

 

My oldest brother's signature weapon was the Golden PP7. Our middle brother had the Silver PP7. My signature weapon was dual-wielding auto-shotguns.

I never understood Ecto Cooler. From what I gather, it was supposed to taste like mandarin orange, but it didn't. (Though mandarin oranges are awesome in their own right)

I never got to experience Chuck E Cheese as a kid, sadly. My parents didn't feel it was worth the money, plus when I was little they didn't want us playing video games. Though after Five Nights at Freddy's and the fact that people fight there these days I don't think I could ever look at Chuck E Cheese the same way again.

I did get to experience "Discovery Zone" once. It was pretty fun, though I've heard Chuck E Cheese bought them out. (No, that is not where my "DZ" comes from)
