Ah, the ’90s.
It was a time when we danced like nobody was watching to the beats of Nirvana, Spice Girls, and Tupac. Remember the thrill of getting the perfect mixtape ready for your crush, hoping the carefully selected tracks would convey what words couldn’t? Our biggest worries were whether Ross and Rachel would ever make it work, and if our Tamagotchis would survive the school day.
Saturday mornings were for cartoons, with “Rugrats” and “Hey Arnold!” leading the charge, while afternoons were reserved for rollerblading and trading Pokémon cards. The internet was a new frontier, dial-up connections bringing a world of possibility—one slow webpage at a time. And who could forget the joy of visiting Blockbuster, searching the aisles for that perfect movie night pick?
If you’re a ’90s baby who pines for the simplicity of the pre-Y2K era, scroll on for a hearty dose of nostalgia.
