90's kids

although i wasn't a 90's kid i could draw some similarities to this-

Anybody under the age of 16 won't get this. Just because you were born in '92 doesn't mean you're a '90s kid. It's not like you could remember the original Simpsons.
*
You know you're a '90s kid if...
*
You can sing the rap to "The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air"

*
You remember when it was actually worth getting up early on a Saturday to watch cartoons ( kenan and kel!!!!)
*

You remember reading "Goosebumps"

You took plastic cartoon lunch boxes to school with little flasks
*

*
You still get the urge to say "NOT" after (almost) every sentence...
*
Not...

*
You had giggle fits and timed them
*
You could run at 100mph in your slippers, especially at night
*
You remember boom boxes vs. cd players
*

You knew all the characters names and their life stories on "Saved By The Bell"

:lol: I think my two youngest sons could relate very well to that, dunderheed!

May I add on one in a similar vein? It is from the USA, but I don't think that should be a problem...a lot of us who are just a "touch" older than 17-18 will know exactly what it is talking about, and be able to remember differently!! ;)


In the coming weeks, a new generation of students will arrive on campuses throughout the country to mark the start of their first year of college. Most of these students were born in 1984. It was a different time, with computers becoming part of our daily lives, videotape changing the way we looked at television, and the explosion of the digital age—from watches to telephones.
For the fifth year, Beloit College, the liberal arts college in Beloit, Wisconsin, is distributing the Mindset List to its faculty and staff as an indicator of the many ways in which entering 17 and 18 year-olds see the world differently from their professors, coaches and mentors. The list is a reminder that the world view of today's new college students is significantly different from the intellectual framework of those students who entered only a few years earlier.
