It's a healthy thing to remember your past. It can help give you perspective on your present. You remember what you used to be like back in the day, before the world made you bitter, or tired, or otherwise adult-ly. You know this if you've ever watched a video of yourself when you were a kid. You realize how much and yet how little has changed. You're smaller, sure. But you're the same. You recognize your mannerisms and tics. You recognize your personality. You might not recognize your unbridled energy or enthusiasm. 

Or maybe you do, and you're grateful that it has stayed with you this long. It can be a real head trip to see film of us when we were younger, but it can also help us remember who we are, back when we were closer to the source. Looking back at memes can help us remember this, too. Memes take us back. They remind us of what we used to find funny, interesting, or compelling back in the day. These memes will do just that.

  • These memes have been hand-curated to remind you of your youth in the 90s. The best time there ever was to be a child. It was a time of innocence, of freedom, of peak Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network. And we're going to honor it the best way we know how. With memes.
