A Millennial Trip Down Memory Lane With 31 Things That Made the '90s and Early 2000s Totally Rad

Listen, I might be GenX, but the '90s and early 2000s still hold a special place in my heart. I remember the days when we had to dial up to get on the internet, when slap bracelets were still all the rage, and you had to rewind the VHS before taking it back to Blockbuster. Sure, my nostalgia might lean a little more towards Atari and hair metal, but I still remember dancing to the Macarena and downloading songs from Napster (at speeds that took all night).

Whether you're a fellow GenXer who remembers watching TRL while deciding which Backstreet Boy was your favorite or a Millennial who grew up mastering Mario Kart on the N64, this collection will transport you right back to the neon-filled, butterfly-clip-wearing, Tamagotchi-beeping good old days. Let's dive in and revisit all the weird and wonderful things that made the '90s and early 2000s totally unforgettable!
