Relive the Glory Days With These 33 Throwbacks Every 90s Kid Will Love

Let's rewind the clock to the late 80s and early 90s—a time when everything felt a little simpler, a little rougher around the edges, but somehow just right. TVs were bulky, and the remote was practically another family member. The internet? It sounded like a robot trying to sing, and you'd hope no one picked up the phone mid-login. But honestly, we wouldn't have had it any other way.

Life tasted like sugary cereal on Saturday mornings and that weird powdered drink mix that somehow made everything better. We were the generation that scraped our knees playing outside until the streetlights came on, made collect calls from payphones, and used cassette tapes to make the ultimate mixtape. We stayed up late trying to beat impossible NES games, and our wardrobes were full of neon and questionable fashion choices.

Sure, we've grown up now, but there's a part of us that will always belong to that era of jello molds and crimped hair. Ah, those were the days!
