I Think 90s kids were the LAST social generation(16-24 aged miscers GTFIH)

[Gerrymander]

I love the convenience of having information at my fingertips, but the ability to socialize has degraded so much. Its not just guys but girls too. People are absorbed in their phones, wont even say hello to you. I mean I see the difference in my social skills just when I look at myself compared to my older sibling who's a 90s kid. The internet was just starting out in the 90s, and people weren't as glued to it as they are now. I bet the epidemic of college aged virgins would go down dramatically if we had less access to the internet. Most people dont even know how to interact with a chick, let alone get in their pants

[Deathcore]

yeah.



































no.

I'm 26 but can I be a 90s kid too OP?

Every person I walk by I say hi to if we have eye contact that lasts longer than 1 second, I usually get a lot of stares and a couple "Y-you too"s.

[Ice-9]

Guess I'm neither social nor a 90's kid

damn

you're borderline but at least you grew up before everybody had smartphones

Your age range is jacked. First, someone who is 16 can't really be considered a 90's kid. They're barely a 2000's kid.

Second, by the time 2000 rolled around, most middle class people had internet and cell phones. So your 24 year old had access to them for pretty much their entire life.

[BBLuder]

but OP

social media has made EVERYONE more social than ever!

(not srs)

Look! We're sharing our lives with each other. There has never been a time in history where so many people could get intimate with each other in an instant like that. /facepalm

[ingoodtime]

Cannot confirm this

Tfw no social skills

A thread created by a non 90s kid about 90s kids...
how typical..

[mehcba]

TFW when you had to call a girls landline, and speak to their parents or brother/sister before getting them on the phone.
TFW when picking a girl up on a date, you had to go ring their front door - and make awkward conversation with their parents.

Oh lawd, cant imagine kids having the balls to do that anymore.

Agreed but just because the internet existed in the early 00s didn't mean kids weren't social.

The key year is 2007. The iphone came out and twitter started to get popular.

[Smithers115]

Hopefully this thread doesn't become a debate about what counts as a 90s kid. But I feel like people born in the early 90s were the last to have childhoods where you were forced to go outside to meet up/chill with friends. People born mid 90s and on words lived in a time where cell phones/social media widely used before they were teens and didn't get those feels. You know, walking/biking to your friends house to ask if they could play and shiet.

yes this. Never went outside past age 10 crew checking in

[Payrab]

16 years old? Born in 1998 doesn't = 90s kid. I'm guessing OP is 16.

[Jibt3ch]

Its so fuking wierd. I dont see very many kids outside playing in the summer anymore, very few kids riding bikes or playing soccer/basketball at the school I live near. In the winter I hardly see any snow forts or snowmen. No kids outside in 15 layers of clothes playing in the snow. What do 4-12 year olds do now? Is it all just ipads/computers/smart phones all childhood now?

being a young kid in the 90's was awesome.

[Aerojh]

Social Networks should be taking the major blame here

[Jibt3ch]

Oh man. I remember having a Nokia 3310 & dial-up internet

lol man I remember dat chit. You'd have to tell your friends youre going on the internet so they wouldnt get a busy signal for hours.... nvm kids would jsut walk/ride bikes over anyway and you guys would play d1 together lewl.

[Ratfish]

it was 80s kids, breh

[jembojumba]

You will never know the feels of buying ur very first computer and starting up windows 3.1 then throwing in a cd of the encyclopedia britannica and having ur mind completely fuking blown.
