90's kid: Brit version!

[tj_rowe]

ANYBODY UNDER THE AGE OF 13 SHOULD NOT RE-POST THIS.
JUST CAUSE YOU WERE BORN IN '93' OR '94' DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE A 90s KID.
IT'S NOT LIKE YOU COULD REMEMBER SOME OF THE ORIGINAL SIMPSONS.

YOU KNOW YOU'RE A BRITISH 90s KID IF...


YOU CAN SING THE RAP TO "THE FRESH PRINCE OF BELL AIR"

YOU'VE WORN LEGGINGS AND FELT COOL.

YOU USED TO LOVE PLAYING WITH YOUR "PUPPY IN MY POCKETS"

YOU REMEMBER WHEN IT WAS ACTUALLY WORTH GETTING UP ON A SATURDAY MORNING TO WATCH LIVE & KICKING OR SM:TV.

YOU HAD A HUGE FRINGE AT SOME POINT IN YOUR CHILDHOOD.

YOU REMEMBER READING AND WATCHING "GOOSEBUMPS"

YOU TOOK PLASTIC CARTOON LUNCH BOXES TO SCHOOL.

YOU KNOW THE WORDS FROM THE SHAKEY JAKE MILKSHAKE ADVERTS

YOU REMEMBER THE CRAZE OF YO-YOS AND TAMAGOTCHI'S

YOU STILL GET THE URGE TO SAY "NOT" AFTER EVERY SENTENCE.
NOT.

YOU KNEW THAT KIMBERLY, THE PINK RANGER, AND TOMMY, THE GREEN RANGER WERE MEANT TO BE.

YOU COLLECTED POKEMON CARDS.

YOU PLAYED AND/OR COLLECTED POGS.

YOU HAD A WEIRD ALIEN THAT LIVED IN GOOEY STUFF IN A PLASTIC 'POD' AND THOUGHT IF YOU STUCK 2 BACK TO BACK THEY WOULD HAVE A BABY!

YOU WATCHED THE ORIGINAL POSTMAN PAT, FIREMAN SAM AND NINJA TURTLES.

YIKES PENCILS WERE THE BEST!-WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM?

YOU REMEMBER WHEN THE NEW BEANIE BABIES WERE ALWAYS SOLD OUT

YOU GOT YOUR MUM TO BUY 'BN' BISCUITS

YOU USED TO WEAR THOSE STICK ON EARRINGS, NOT ONLY ON YOUR EARS BUT AT THE CORNERS OF YOUR EYES.

YOU KNOW THE MACERENA BY HEART.

"TALK TO THE HAND" ENOUGH SAID.

YOU REMEMBER THE TIME BEFORE LITERACY AND NUMERACY HOUR EXISTED.

YOU THOUGHT BRAIN FROM "PINKY AND THE BRAIN" WOULD FINALLY TAKE OVER THE WORLD.

YOU REMEMBER BUM BAGS.

YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO BE ON FUN HOUSE

YOU COLLECTED TAZOS.

2 WORDS: SPICE GIRLS.

RE-POST THIS IF YOU ARE A BRITISH 90s KID AND CAN RELATE TO
ANY OF THESE!

Yep.
Irish, though.
But, yep.

Unfortunately I'm Asian American. ^^;

Whatever did happen to those Yikes! pencils? I still read the Goosebumps books but only the ones in the young adult section. Heh heh...

=P I'm not British, but I lived in England during the majority of the 90's so I relate!

This is a kind of sexist list. I mean, come on, I didn't wear stick on earings or leggings or listen to Spice Girls! (Much... *shrug*)

Also, it's Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, stupid, not Bell Air. (The person who wrote the list being "stupid", not you TT.) And Trini was the hottest girl power ranger. Pink suxxorz. (Looking back, I think Power Rangers may in fact have been my first roleplaying game. Hmmm...)

In closing, Postman Pat was my HERO!! Actually it was the black and white cat that rocked the house, but yanno. He didn't have a hat. But anyway... I forgot what my point was... :P Yay Nineties!

I'm not British, but I do remember a lot of these things. xP

Would it dishearten you to know that Jess the Cat is getting a solo series next year?

And ... this is disconcerting, as half the things on that list feel like yesterday to me. Seriously. My brain entered a kind of stasis in 2000, so I have to constantly remind myself that the 90s were, in fact, more than half a decade ago.

Lol! Ditto, actually. 96-98 was the only time that I spent in the pop-music scene. XD
