Born in the 80's -- Grew up in the 90's...
"Just because you were born in '97 doesn't mean you're a 90's kid.
It's not like you could remember the original Simpsons. I am sorry but three conscious years of the 90's just wont cut it.
You're a 90's kid if:
You just cant resist finishing this... "Iiiiiiin west philladelphia born and raised..."
You remember TGIF on ABC. Step by Step, Family Matters, Dinosaurs, and Boy Meets World.
You remember when Kurt Cobain, 2Pac, River Phoenix, and Selena died.
You know that "WOAH" comes from Joey from "Blossom" and that "How Rude!" comes from Stephanie from "Full House"
You remember when it was actually worth getting up early
on a Saturday to watch cartoons.
You danced to "Wannabe" by the Spice Girls, Females: had a new motto, Males: got a whole lot gay-er. (so tell me what you want, what you really really want.)

And You Were Obsessed with either 'Nsync or Backstreet Boys. But never NEVER both...
You knew all the characters names and their life stories on "Saved By The Bell"
You played and/or collected "Pogs"
You had at least one Tamagotchi, GigaPet or Nano and brought it everywhere
You haven't always had a computer, and it was cool to have the internet.

Yikes pencils and erasers were the stuff!
You used to wear those stick on earings, not only on your ears, but at the corners of your eyes.
You owned a portable tape player.
If you even know what an original walkman is.
You know the Macarena by heart.
"Talk to the hand" ... enough said
You went to McD's to play in the playplace.
When we were younger:
Before the MySpace frenzy...
Before the Internet & text messaging...
Before Sidekicks & iPods...
Before cellphones.
Before PlayStation2 or X-BOX...
...Back when you put off the 5 hours of homework you had every night.
When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.
When Caller ID was a new thing.
When we recorded stuff on VCRs.
When we called the radio station to request songs to hear off our walkmans.
When 2Pac and Biggie where alive.
When everyone loved Disney movies.
Before we realized all this would eventually disappear"
Those were the days...haha
