90s

The year is 1995. You're still hungry after forcing down the slice of something rubbery the school cafeteria tried to pass off as pizza for lunch, and you're swapping collectible cards with your friends of whatever is trending that week. You know that when you get home, you can play on your Gameboy, the most technologically advanced thing you own. Life is good. Sound familiar? Then these things will trigger all the nostalgia within you at the deepest level.

The 90s was a great decade and if you grew up in those golden years, then these items will bring the childhood memories flooding back in. You weren't a true 90s kid if you didn't have at least half the things on this list, so go count and see how many were a part of your childhood! 

It's Throwback Thursday and this week we're looking back at some of the most iconic figures that shaped '90s pop culture. From Brittany and Justin, to the Spice Girls, to Mary Kate and Ashley and everything in between, it was a decade that gave us some truly big names that shaped pop culture into what it is today. Check out these pictures taken from Instagram account @babemania, which is a tribute to these great icons, which makes us miss them and the simpler times they came with. 

Relationships aren't what they used to be. Somehow TV love seemed purer back in the '90s; something that was longer-lasting. I guess that's because there wasn't Tinder back then to screw everything up. As Valentine's Day approaches, let's use this Throwback Thursday to cast our minds back to a time when sitcoms showed true and lasting love in all its glory.

Looking to feel like you're over the hill and there's no way to go but down? 

You've come to the right place. 

Welcome to your nightmare! No one seems to relate to a majority of these 'old'-school items and we've spent nearly the entire day upset about it. 

Scroll, if you dare. 

Calling all 90s kids! This is a jam-packed nostalgia dump bound to hit you right in the memories! 

Enjoy the trip down memory lane, we know we have! 

If you were born in the 90s, you know it was the greatest era. We got to grow up in a world without smartphones, the internet, and social media. We had Dunk-a-roos, Gushers, Blockbuster, Goosebumps, roller-skates, and life was grand. Yet, we were all there for these huge game-changers and it just made us appreciate the earlier days, as well as, the new tech that connects us to the world. 

Some Gen Zer's don't quite understand the magic that was the 90s and have taken to Twitter to ask some questions.

Just in case you were missing a bit of nostalgia in your life...

The ultimate proof that life was though before the internet
