One...what years must you be born in?

Two...if you were born in 1994...are you a 90's kid?

Three...What memories do you have for the 90's?

    If the kid enjoys things pertaining to the 90s, it makes him/her a 90s kid in my book.

      Not this again. Reminds me of a member who bashed about this back in 2008. Does it really matter?

        What makes a 90s kid to me?
        First off, you have to be born in the mid 80s or early 90s to have the full effect of 90s nostalgia. If you're one person who can stop playing the old Super NES, or still likes to watch Ren & Stimpy and Rocko's Modern Life reruns late at night on the Nicktoons Network, I'd deem you a 90's kid for the least.

        It's always been my opinion that you can never be too nice but it's not good to let people walk all over you either.

            A 90s kid would know Denver the Last Dinosaur. Obviously. lol


            He or she woould also need to be over the age of 4 in 1990.

            A few others:

            Did you rent VHS's or DVD's?

            You remember when SNL was funny. (david spade, chris farley)

            Did you watch Snick?

            Those would be some good signs of an 1990's kid,

              A 90s kid would:
              Remember Furbys.
              Have grown up watching Nick Toons.
              May or may not be fimiliar with PBS cartoons such as Arthur.
              Remember when DVDs first replaced VHSes.

                My thoughts exactly.

                Anyway simple answer is anyone born from 1983 to the early 90s which is consider Generation Y.

                  Who qualifies? This guy! 8)

                  But seriously, it's more about liking the culture of the time and growing up in generally that time. I was born in 1994, so I missed some, but I saw a lot of reruns and would call myself more of a 90s kid than a 2000s kids.

                  There's no need to go all SwingOnThis/OMGWTFBBQ and make a big deal of who is and isn't a "true 90s kid" :roll:

                      If you have the tendency to watch Teenick late at night with their new 90's programming block, welcome to the club of 90's kids and addicts.

                        I was born in 1994. I remember Mostly watching stuff from 1987 - 2004. I grew up with watching Duckula, (A '80s show ffs.) & I even remember Rocko's modern life. Most of my childhood shows were from the 90s, So I'd say I'm a 90s kid actually. :)

                          Honestly, I think it's a combination of culture...I grew up watching 80s tv shows and movies, does that make me an 80's kid? Hell no, I was born in 1986 for crying out loud, only have 1 memory of Christmas, '89 and that's it...

                          Think about what you remember from the decade, not just television and movies because syndication really doesn't count...if you remember probably 85% of these than you're probably a 90s kid (I mean actually remember, not being told about it...)
                          *the Oklahoma City Bombing (my teacher told us after recess, we almost got sent home)
                          *OJ Simpson (we watched it during school)
                          *Clinton being elected twice
                          *Clinton's "I did not have sexual relations..."
                          *Columbine (I was already in jr. high when that happened)
                          *Princess Diana dying
                          *Chicago Bulls being everyone's favorite team
                          *When Dolly was the first cloned sheep (I did a current event assignment on it)
                          "This scar is a fleck on my porcelain skin, tried to reach deep but you couldn't get in..."

                            Hm, let me try that for the 80s...

                            *I remember the space shuttle exploding

                            *I remember the little girl that got trapped in the well for like two or three days and how much it scared me

                            *I remember MTV playing music videos lol

                            *I remember the election between Dekakis and Bush Sr because I always told my parents to vote for Bush because I couldn't pronounce Dekakis. :lol:

                            *I remember the stuff, slightly, dealing with the 1984 Olympics (cause of the gymnist girl who was on the Wheaties box)

                            *I remember Reagan in his second term because of how much the adults seemed to talk about how great he was at the time and how I even had to write a letter to him.

                            *I remember when Jim Henson died (but I'm not sure if this was 1989 or 1990)

                            That's all for now... Now, as for the 90s...

                            *I remember the OJ Simpson trial

                            *I do remember the Oklahoma City Bombing

                            *I do remember when Princess Diana died (so sad)

                            *I remember when Mel Blanc died (very very sad too)

                            *I remember Clinton being elected twice.

                            *I remember H. Ross Perot as a running candidate for both elections back in the 90s, and then backing out.

                            *I remember Kids Pick the President on Nickelodeon (not sure if they even still do this)

                            *I remember the Monica Lewinsky Scandal

                            *I remember Michael Jackson's kids being born

                            *I remember Columbine (I was in high school with this and rules were passed at our school, like no trench coats)

                            *I remember when Paul Reubens got in trouble at the theater and was arrested and that "This is Crack" PSA he did which I found weird and creepy and disturbing. Looking at it now... :lol:

                              When you drink Sunny Delight nowadays and think ''This use to taste so much better''

                              When you were outraged at the fact they made the crackers in Lunchables wholegrain.

                              Being excited to watch all the cartoons on Saturday morning, being more excited about the fact you get a bowl of chocolate cereal along with it.

                              You remember the Spice Girls craze.

                              Having shoes that flashed when you walked.

                              The ''Coming soon to theaters'' section at the beginning of video tapes.

                                In 2021 we will discuess how much nostalgia 2000 - 2009 gave.

                                Anyway here we go again.

                                When MTV ruled the world before Youtube

                                When you were a Nalaholic

                                When you remember the Tour De France 90´s classics

                                When the radio and nightclubs played cheesy dance and trance music

                                When furries was kings

                                  When they talk about the good ol' days when in fact most haven't reach 20.
