Ah, the 90s. A different time.

Being a 90s kid was a great time to be alive. Of course, anything from your childhood, a time when you had no responsibilities other than to feed your Tamagotchi, is going to sound pretty nice. It was a time when we could pretend like nothing mattered and nothing was our fault. We could waste all the time we wanted because there was an infinite amount of it. Recess was all the time, because we didn't have anything to worry about other than doing our homework and making sure our tips were nicely frosted. So forgive us if we indulge in the past a little now and then. If you were a kid at this time, these pics are going to send shockwaves of nostalgia through your system, and you'll be flooded with memories from a time gone by. You may be tempted to laugh, you may be transported back to youth, and you may want to share these images with the people you grew up with. We condone all of these responses. Just make sure that you're having a good time, because that's all that matters at the end of the day. You do so much. You work so hard and live so scrupulously. You spend your time the way it's supposed to be spent, and you do what needs to be done. So cut loose every now and again, I beg of you. It's good for your soul. Memes can be the perfect way to do that, because they are consequence-free. They don't do anything for you other than try to make you happy. So your job is to just sit back and relax and enjoy all the fun that's ahead.
