Waaazzzaaaap
That ad campaign started in 99, its really more of a 2000’s thing.
Ya, but it proves I lived through the 90’s 😆
The 90s were from 1995 to 2005. That’s just my opinion. I know it sounds dumb. Many things from 1990 to 1994 feel like the 80’s.

Here in the Netherlands I never heard of it!
Rad! Thanks :)

Watskeburt?
Waaaatsgebeuuurrrd!
Hahaha that’s the first thing that popped in my mind! 😂
Outside of America, this is interpreted as a reference to Scary Movie instead of the budweiser ad.
Winamp.
I still use Winamp regularly.
…it really whips the llamas ass!
Baaaahhh!!!
Skins for winamp!
still using it as my PC media player
Encarta
I remember this from the school library computers. That and even back then the school had some kind of broadband, it blew my mind that to get online all we had to do was open IE. I was used to that part but always had whatever dial up service we had at the time to open up and connect first. Just clicking IE and going was crazy to me.
I remember trying to play Mind Maze and knowing absolutely nothing.
I loved the video it has about nuclear fission reactions.
Y2K.

Came here to say this! My collection is MIA and it still makes me sad thinking about it.
Your parents threw it away
Along with my pokemon cards
Netscape
Linux and Mac users can hold on to a little piece of that history with the wonderful xscreensaver suite (its author, jwz, was a Netscape dude).
Add to that, flying toasters
Even better just use Firefox it descended from Netscape Navigator.
Jwz! He was like nerd Jesus to us 90s computer geeks
Bobwehadababyitsaboy
I remember it as “eeetsaboy”
This one pops into my head way too often
This was my first thought lol
NOT!
Dialup
Pshhhkkkkkkrrrrkakingkakingkakingtshchchchchchchchcchdingdingding

Welcome, you’ve got mail, goodbye…
Lol lol at you with internet. We didn’t get access until 1999.

Psych!
You know that’s right!
Umm, excuse me, but I believe you’re missing a “start” and/or “select.” pushes glasses up nose
This is how you know they didn’t have friends. Select & Start was the end combo for two player cheat.
Start
Select Start*
Wasn’t it “…B A B A Select Start”, too?
Select Start for two players. Just Start for solo.
Still, “B A B A” for either.
No, it’s just one B A. Maybe somewhere down the line there’s a variant or two but in its true and unaltered form the Konami Code is UUDDLRLRBA
Source: Gradius, Contra, etc
What 30+ years does to recollection, ya know? 😅
That’s 80s.
It was first used in '86 with Gradius, but wasn’t popularized until the 90’s. Most notably with Contra on the NES, which released only a year after Gradius.
It was well-known to me in the 80s, at least. The fact that both those games are NES games makes it firmly 80s, in my mind.
Also, to be fair here, even if you recognize stuff from the 80’s, and you’re still around now, then you definitely lived through the 90’s. lol

Not a word, but the phrase “going online”. As in not being constantly connected at all times. We had to actually “get” online to look at stuff.
Remember cyberspace?
I remember before I had the internet wondering why companies had ads for “http://” and others were on “www” and having no clue if I needed to buy a special internet to access each.
D.A.R.E
Ooo what about “Double-Dare”??
Physical challenge.
I started school in 2006 and I can still remember this being a thing
I only wear mine when getting really high
I failed D.A.R.E and they made me watch the ceremony of all the other kid’s graduations. I just wasn’t interested in drugs.
JNCO
Kikwear, too.
Randy River too
