When your crush signs off on AIM and you check your other account to make sure she didn't block you.

Who knows these feels? Lmao

[CoolKnees]

Remember when everybody dressed like this?

[lupus002]

I miss being a kid and going around my neighborhood knocking on everyones door to see who could play.

I feel like technology is limiting social interactions which is making more and more people depressed and anxious or straight up unhappy.

[atlas24]

brb one summer off felt like 2 years
brb sleepovers staying up all night playing duke nukem
brb 20 dollars in your pocket felt like a million

[markduschane]

TGIF lol

[richard noggin]

was so tightt

[BrightThru2014]

I honestly think the 90s were peak Western Civilization.

brb defeat communism, capitalism and freedom ascendant and unchallenged as the ideal end of times political ideology
brb go to bars to pick up girls with self-esteem roughly proportional to their attractiveness because lack of social media validation
brb people much more socially competent
brb people do activities for intrinsic value instead of social media considerations
brb no PC culture, political discourse is far more reasonable
brb technology / health care still pretty reasonable and life expectancy more or less the same
brb kids still go outside to do sports, play in the neighborhood
brb Islamic terrorism not a thing

etc, it's a shame really.

[markduschane]

I used to spend hours trying to decide what movie to get looking at every box

[Scarrdbutsmartr]

Anything pre-9/11...

[J90]

Yeah man, feels like life peaked in the 90s.

Feels like I've lived the best years of my life which is pretty sad. I like my life now but my childhood was just amazing.

Having a chitty childhood is a blessing in disguise (srs)

I agree. It seems like every 80 years there is a crisis, with WW2 being the last one. It all depends how well we solve the upcoming crisis.

I think many of us here would trade the rest of our lives to go back and be a kid again at the happiest point of our lives.

I would in a heartbeat.

[BlueElmo]

I am so glad I got to grow up in the 90's. It was the peak, I believe, like the poster above said. I will always have the happy memories of being in the 90's, no one can take that away from me no matter how chitty my life is at this moment or in the future.

When I look at today's kids, I kind of feel sorry for them, they will never experience what life was like in the 90's, IMO.

[OffwhiteBrah]

Miss dem days when family can go with you all the way to the waiting area before you board the plane, just chillin .

[stewartrochet]

life sucks now in comparison. brb everyone glued to their smartphone at all times.

[KyBrah32]

I miss when the only thing to worry about was making it home by 4:30 to watch DBZ after school

todays kids can watch whateverthe fuk they want whenever they want to

[latverian41]

If yoiu could wake up tomorrow and be any wage in your past or go back to any year and start over what would you choose?

Id go back. To being 9 or 10. Happy memories for sure.

[SwimToTheMoon]

I wonder if life was better as a 24 year old in the 90s.. I was a child in the 90s and it felt like heaven, but what about older brahs? Was it better than now?

I feel like they perceived time slower because everything wasn't so high paced and we didn't get so much information at all times..Also people had more adventures I think.. Dunno brahs, feel like this instagram swag chit sucks but everyone says that about their generation, does this generation truly suck more?

Agreed but do you ever feel down that it's all over? When I think of a good memory of my childhood, I feel happy at first and then sad that I'll never be able to re-live that experience again.

Nostalgia of piss

I'd go back to 6-11 year old range. Happiest 5 years of my life.

Better to have loved and lost than not loved at all. I'm still glad I got to experience 90's.

6-11 were the happiest 5 years of my life. Not a single worry in life. Just to go school, after school play outside, watch cartoons. No drama. I was fed, clothed, parents took care of me. I just had to be healthy and exist.
