its a pretty deep memory for all of us, i see. it goes so far back for me. i was born in 1989, but my lil bro and sis not born til 99 and 2000. so when i see stuff from the period that i lived before them, as an only child, its extra surreal. in a way its super foggy, can almost hardly recall it. but then watching this, as everyone else writes, it takes me str8 back. its crazy how i remembered every single character in the intro. every one of them! just unreal how memories work, isn't i t?

But damn those were some good times in the 90’s!
