I am 42 and I could literally overdose on nostalgia. The 90's was the last decade where there was still an innocence to life. They had the best movies, tv, and music. I sometimes sit and just close my eyes and go back to this time on my mind...just immersing myself in all the memories. I cry a lot just yearning for those days that I can never get back. The world is such a 💩show today and I just wish I could be a kid again. Just wanting to relive all those precious times 😢. I thank God for RU-vid...one of the only online platforms I really look at. . Long live the 90's !!!! 👍👍👍💜💜💜

50s here. Our grammar school had no fences. At recess I went to my friends house to see her new baby brother. None of this constant control. There was a patch of woods past the school grounds. Loved to go there playing pirates, Tom Sawyer, Louis and Clark. Endless joy! We could hear the bell and the hoard of kids, sweaty and dirty, would pour out of the "forest". One Saturday we combat crawled through a field of watermelon when the farmer spotted us and fired his shotgun at us! What an adventure! We didn't have sidewalks, just ditches for water runoff. We'd build boats and run following them down through the culverts of each house. It was GREAT! Life for kids today is so boring being locked in their house all the time. Kid bullies you at school? Beat the hell out of him, her. No supervision. You were on your own and wouldn't be a problem to anyone or everyone would defend you. Supervisors just interrupt the normal cause and affect of kids at play.

@IrishMike22 Месяц назад

Yeah yeah because getting shot at by a landowner with a shotgun is a real hoot 😂 We had some fun times for sure. No parents, no supervision, walked home alone from K through 8th grade. These "kids" today ( kids until the age of 28 somehow btw) have no idea what the world is like outside the door.

I turned 35 in '95. I had two kids by then. They did play outside a lot! But I always knew where they were. I think being born in the 60's and growing up through the 70's, made me a more cautious parent. I love that you shared the innovation of kids in the 90's. Those WERE my kids. A lot of what you described has been passed down from the previous generations of kids. What people don't grasp is, it wasn't as innocent as we want to remember. There were a lot of very bad people then, too. As kids, we navigated quite a bit of rough environments. There were no child protective services, and we got our ass kicked. Adults didn't believe you when you spoke to bad things happening; we were being "dramatic". I got hit by a car, and never told my parents. They just would have said, "Weren't you watching where you were going?" I feel we strive to be better and present parents to our 90's kids. Some of us went too far to protect, shelter, placate these kids, and we're dealing with that now. I loved being a kid when I could go anywhere, basically alone. I loved being a mom. Parenting is not for the faint of heart. It does take a village because it is a high-wire balancing act, with hardly a net, if any. I can romanticize some of that time, but not all of it. I did enjoy your video. It obviously struck something in me, that needed to be said, I guess. 😂

I was born in the early 70’s before computers ever existed. I grew up with a black & white tv until around 1980. We didn’t even have tapes until the 80’s. There wasn’t even the ability to record songs off the radio back then. We just listened to hear what we wanted. We had Wiffle Ball bats to entertain ourselves and major movies didn’t exist until 1977 with Star Wars which blew our minds back then. We had cool stuff like Electronic Football just blinking lights on a screen. Can you even imagine we rode our bikes around the neighborhood but not much else. Went to the neighborhood park. There was no mall.

I feel like we get to use two decades as our “kids” time since you’re 18 before you are considered an adult. Born in the early 80’s, graduating high school in the early 00’s.. I remember a lot of late 80’s and all of the 90’s. Then the 00’s were my early adult years (was a college Freshman on 9/11). This list was dead on from age 7 to 17 for me. Though I did try to give my own kids parts of this - large fenced property with wooded area, and two neighbors with the same set up and children.. we opened our fences to each other’s properties so the kids played outside all day, rode bikes, made forts, and had epic hide and seek games… and we didn’t have the need to “helicopter parent” them. Waiting anxiously to see movies on opening weekend with popcorn and drinks. Oh! Putting playing cards in the bicycle spokes so the bikes sounded like “motorcycles”, roller skating and going bowling! - But there are some parts you just can’t recreate.. the area we live in didn’t offer landline telephone services before they were old enough to remember they existed. They never have to ask to speak to a friend through their parents - or super cute older brother - or losing all nerve and hanging up. (Or listening in from the next room so you could tease or threaten to tell mom on your sister for what she and her boyfriend said.) They don’t know a world where they can’t instantly reach their friends, no matter where. Or even “call back after 9 when its free!” cell calls. Or the awful mistake of picking up the phone as a fax was coming through or when your dad was on the dial up internet - knocking him off. Eeek. We watched a movie the week of Halloween and the noise they used to set the spooky scene was the dial up internet screech. My husband and I laughed a lot about that one. My kids are in high school and my daughter found my old tamagotchi a few weeks ago. Add a battery and it still works. I “babysit” when she is at school. 😂 (Though I hated Titanic. Twister is the best 90’s movie).

@BreadApologist 7 месяцев назад

I use to play outside all the time as a kid, using my imagination n having fun. Now I think “outside” and shudder. Also it is kinda weird that if a kid plays with a toy or does hide n seek everyone thinks it’s fine but if an adult does it with same type of toy or hide n seek with other adults ppl think it’s weird. Fun is fun. Though now it’s mostly pc or…..if you don’t have a soul, console games. I do miss exploring the neighborhood n going on long walks and discovering new things though. As a kid it was fun n fascinating, now it feels like a chore if I have to walk or go anywhere more than I absolutely have to.

Hi Mike! My first job out of college was in a custom photo lab. This was in the early 80s, and there were several 1 hour places around, but we weren't one of those. We catered to the professional photographers, but we also had a lot of everyday customers. One thing that surprised me was the fact that the pictures you took got seen by the employees of the lab. I had always thought that the film was fed into a machine which did all of the work, packaged it and all the workers did was file it. This view was apparently shared by many others. Whenever you found a really good picture, you would pass it around or even make extra prints to show our friends. Some of the most straight-laced looking folk had some triple X rated stuff. I mean, some of these were extremely graphic, even perverted! It was hard to keep a straight face sometimes when they came to pick up their order.

My small town still has a drive-in theater and we still go on the weekend to watch the newest movie blockbuster and would not want it any other way

Before the internet there was always television, even for a sixties kid like me. 📺❤️ I was never allowed out on my own, but then I had a back garden to play in, two brothers and local parks my late father, would take us to. Tape mixes started in the eighties, I remember doing it, to play at college. I still use my local library, but you get out books with a barcoded card. There are still books out there to read. One I got out recently, has inspired me to buy the entire set that it is from, when I can. In the UK blockbuster films always came out in time for school holidays, that's July to September, Easter and Christmas. Magazines of all kinds for all ages in the UK still have freebies, I love fashion magazines for the free perfume samples. I envy today's kids, they get to buy magazines with loads of free toys. I always took photos from art college in the eighties onwards, so my pad is full of them. I have ended up with an instant picture camera, my SLR from college, my late father's Box Brownie, a keyring camera which was lousy and an instamatic that stopped working. I really want a digital SLR, better than my pad's camera. I know my landline number, but can never remember my mobile number. 😁

I am a 60's kid (Adult, now)...and remember nearly all of these things. My Tamaguchi lasted about three days...overfed it, it died...never got another one.

I miss the 90s. I wish my kid could experience some of these. I can't wait till I'm old enough to go to a nursing home themed as the 90s that sounds like heaven.

Windows 95 was released to businesses in July of 1995, but the first day it was on sale to the general public was on my 30th birthday, August 24 1995! Great vid Mike! 👍✌️

My mom wanted to get on the internet sooooo bad, she had my sister’s old pc that still had a portioned hard drive between DOS and windows And it just wasn’t working - the manual dial up was especially problematic - she always got a busy signal because when it prompted her to enter her number, she entered her home phone number instead of the isp’s. I will never go to hell because I didn’t laugh when she showed me. so we decided to replace her cpu and hard drive and surprised her one Saturday and set things up so instead of 6 or 7 steps to connect to the internet she only had to push one button. I’ll never forget her reaction ‘ok mom, you are on the internet!’ ‘This is it? This is the internet ?!?’ This was when Clinton was banging on about the super information highway, she expected it to look more like Tron 🤣😄👏👏👏

Oh, Goldeneye… the number of hours my friends and I played that game should’ve been put in the Guinness book of world records. I can’t even describe how addicting it was. Even w four player mode we’d fight over who got to play the next rounds. I usually suggested the losers have to swap out so the winners could see how long their spree could go.

Remember putting a playing card on the fender to the spokes to make ours a motorbike? Pen-palls were fun too! (But my teen days were in the 1960s.)

Born in 85 so grew up in the 90s. I still remember all of my neighborhood friends home phone numbers, my old house number, my grandparents house number but can't tell you any numbers today as they are all saved in my phone 😂. The 90s really was the last great generation to grow up. Just for the freedom!
