Us early '90s kids are positively freaking out right now about the fact that we're closing in on the 2010s decade and the '90s will have been nearly 30 years ago for many of us. Time really does seem to fly by faster the older you get.
Sorry Zoomers, we love you guys but this one's for the Millennials.
As an aging millennial it's easy to find myself yearning for simpler times. While yes, dial-up was technically the internet, it was very hard to find yourself glued to a screen for 14 hours of the day. New music was something you read about in a magazine or stumbled upon at a brick and mortar record store. Blockbuster was thriving. We could wax nostalgic for days (what is a day, even?) but we'll save our breath and let these memes take you down memory lane instead.
We can never get enough of the '90s memes, which is probably because many of us are about to hit 30 and we're longing for the days when we didn't have to worry about spending a fortune on rent or getting grey hairs. The '90s were just a simpler time where we could play with our Tamagotchis and not have a care in the world. And hey, while we're at it, have even more '90s memes!
Anyone who grew up in the '80s and '90s knows that those were the days. The days of dial-up internet, Tamagotchis, and horrible hair. Of course, as we get older we tend to engage more in revisionist history, but let us reminisce, dammit! Now check out some Millennial memes for even more relatable humor!
Ah, the 90s. A simpler time when Friday nights consisted of a trip to Blockbuster to pick out a DVD and order pizza. Millennial Twitter users got a pleasant little surprise when Blockbuster popped in just to say hello. The replies are pretty amusing and full of nostalgia, and some a little more unsavory than others.
If you grew up in the '90s then scrolling through this Twitter thread will give you a serious case of nostalgia. Twitter user Melina threw together a hodgepodge of images of things we had completely forgotten about from our schooling days and let's just say, they took us on a little trip down memory lane.
Twitter's #ImOldEnoughToRememberWhen is making us '90s kids feel exceptionally nostalgic and, if we're being honest, a little old.
Kids today will never understand the struggle of having to keep a Tamagotchi alive, or of trying not to get caught passing handwritten notes in class. Like, what are today's kids even wasting their time on in class? vaping in AP history? Watching cat videos on their iPhones? Someone help us out here 'cause we're too old for this shizz!
All of our Millennial viewers will really appreciate these sentimental pics, which make us really miss the '80s and '90s. In fact, you might be tempted to yell at some Generation-Z kids to get off your lawn with their stupid depression jokes and their fidget spinners (are those still a thing...?). Because you know what they say...the grass is always greener in past decades?
