The 90's Thread

In my search on Buzzfeed I stumbled across this lovely little
page and couldn't help myself. I distinctly remember watching
the Muppet Babies, Marsupalami, and Snick, reading those books (
I think I've still got them ) eating half that crap, good grief
it's a wonder, and beating the crap out of my cousin at not only
Nintendo but N64 as well. I've still got the scar from where he
walloped me with the controller. Any of these bring back
memories for you?

Aha! thank you for sharing this link. I love buzzfeed for
finding fun things to read through, or just for taking the
quizzes sometimes if I'm really bored.
I actually have no idea what half of those things are, but
that's likely because a great many seem to be American only :D I
do remember a select few, though, especially Muppet Babies! and
of course Super Soakers, which we ended up going through a whole
shed full because we used them so much, they ended up broken
after not very long. Also remember Squeezits as I was a huge fan
and always had to have one every day.. I actually think they
brought these back here not too long ago, so I may need to pop
out and buy one just to see if it's as good as it used to be.
And last but not least !! gameboys; I absolutely loved these and
I had a transparent purple one, with the Pokemon game and a
little Sabrina the Teenage Witch game.

Ahh! Supersoakers were where it was at! ( oh lord did I just
type that? yup, I did. ) it's true though, they never ever
lasted. Gameboys! I wanted one in the worst possible way but
never got one, ha. I did however have a knock off version of it
thanks to disney's Beauty and Beast. From what I can remember
from it was sort of like a frogger/Super Mario type thing and
you played as bell. It was this sort of bright pink and light
purple and it weighed a freaking ton. We're talking some heavy
duty kid proof plastic. You lucky duck with the Squeezeits! Let
me know how they are. I can remember also drinking Hi-C Ecto
Cooler and eating dunkeroos. All that sugar, it's a wonder my
mother could keep me contained. I also inherited the Mall
Shopping Spree game from my cousin who had for like two seconds
and got board with it. Bless Buzzfeed and their sense of
nostalgia.
It's amazing to look back on all this type of stuff and think
"holy crap, I had that and now look at how much it costs." Also,
I have no idea what Pauly Shore wasn't mentioned in their
nostalgia section. His humor and movies were a huge part of my
growing up and I still can't help but chuckle when someone says
"Hey Buuuuddy." Son in Law, Bio-Dome, and Encino Man were my top
three. Also, what about Brendan Fraser and Jim Carrey? Dumb and
Dumber, Ace Venture I and II and George of the Jungle were two
movies I drove my parents nuts by begging to rent every time we
went to Block Buster. Oddly enough those titles were the ones I
recommended the most to people looking for a laugh when I worked
there. ( good grief it's a wonder I had that job for as long as
I did. )
*side note: For some strange reason growing up I had my mind
made up that when I went away to college I was going to find my
very own Crawl. Never happened and I can't help but think my
parents are somehow just the teeny tiniest bit relieved.* :D
