31 Memes for 90s Kids Who Know Life Was Better Before all...this

You know who you are. You still remember your Tamagotchi's name. You can quote entire episodes of Friends, even though you were way too young to understand any of it. You knew the pain of rewinding a VHS tape, the joy of blowing into a cartridge to make it work, and the high-stakes gamble of burning a CD that might not even play in your Discman. You are, to put it bluntly, a 90s kid - and no amount of taxes, gray hairs, or Google Calendar invites can take that away from you.

This list is for the ones who still get defensive about Captain Planet, who remember when TRL felt like an event, and who can still hear the AOL dial-up tone in their nightmares. These 31 memes aren't just nostalgic — they're emotionally irresponsible. They will make you want to dig up your old Goosebumps books, microwave a bag of Dunkaroos (somehow), and cry-laugh over how we used to get excited about Encarta 95.

So grab your slap bracelet, scoot your inflatable couch a little closer to the screen, and enjoy. We may be adults now, but inside? It's still Saturday morning forever.
