Why'd it make you sad?

Hellz Yeah!! I am so a 90's baby (1990 represent). There are a few its hard to remember because it was back in exactly 90 then went off before I could remember but I pretty much covered everything. And is it sad I automatically yelled at the screen when it said Kimberly belonged with Tommy the *red* ranger and my response was "He's the frickin Green/White Ranger damnit!!" Laughing

(though of course a good portion of us knew it was all about Billy the Blue ranger Laughing

) Oh man, now I want to go back to the 90's they were the best

It made me sad because I got all reminiscent for a second there. Sad

Other things I remembered:

1. Pokemon. Back when it was a craze and they still had the original 150. I don't think kids today even remember Misty.

2. Disney's Golden Age, and that electric piano sound at the song during the ending credits of their movies.

3. Back when we had educational shows and it was considered okay for kids to watch them Rolling Eyes

Meh, aside from disney's golden age I could care less about everything else. Pokemon was cool for about a year then I grew tired of it (though I play the gameboy game when I'm really bored) and I never really cared for educational shows. I watch them more now then I did before. 'Specially Cyberchace...for no reason In paticular and not 'cause of Gilbert Gottfried *shifty* Laughing

(Gilbert teased me and told me if my additions improved from watching that show then I can move onto the times tables soon enough Razz

)

No, for me it was all about Power Rangers and Nintendo Laughing

I still can do some of the stuff I could when I was a kid like sing the whole Fresh Prince theme song. I can still do the Macarena. All that stuff. Hell I still have some of the old tamagatchis left over and I buy all the shows that were on in the 90's from the stores now that their in the box set Laughing

I fear one day that VHS will be completely outdated and that video tapes won't be available for sale anymore Sad

As long as people still own a VCR there will always be some VHS's in the world. And if all else fails then theres always E-Bay Laughing

I too went "Um, no. Tommy was the GREEN ranger" Laughing

God, I feel old. I know all of this Laughing

That whole list is SO ME. I had a Trapper Keeper, I was a New Kids fan in the late 80s, I saw all three Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movies in theaters, and I can't count how many times I said, "So why don't you marry it." Wink

you danced to "wannabe" by the Spice Girls,

Oh, man, that makes me feel old. That was my 8th grade year!

Ah, patterned pencils? Yeah, those were pretty nifty. Come to think of it, I may've even had some. I know I had some funky pencils when I was a kid...

Some had grooves in them and if you wrote with them for a long time, you'd get indentions on your finger tips Laughing

That sounds vaguely familiar... I think I might've used a pencil like that at some point.
