I agree with Stinkywea. Late 80s early 90s

I agree with most but "You loved the New Kids on the Block and Bros. " Who is going to admit to that one!

i had a lite brite and a pogo ball when i was little little.

seems to me they're forgetting a lot of other stuff about the early 90s too though..

the music:

blues traveller, arrested development, the grunge movement (nirvana), the macarena, salt n' pepa, the scat man, cibo matto (who remembers their "i know my chicken" song that was popular for about one week in 1990?), red hot chili pepper's bloodsugarsexmagik,

the movies:

jurassic park, the client, terminator 2, die hard 2, demolition man, the crying game, forrest gump,

the computer and gaming stuff:

atari JAGUAR, super nintendo, sega genesis/MD, sega cd and 32x and later saturn (who remembers how great 'daytona USA' was when it first came out?) windows 3.1 (95 actually came out in 1996), cd-roms and sodn cards cmoing to the mainstream (and who remembers those 'amazing' sound blaster multimedia kits you could buy for your computer that included a sound blaster 16 and a 2x cd-rom that plugged into an ISA port on the sound card?)

Nice, but you mixed many 80;s references in there as well.

Tight rolling jeans was a big thig in the 80s, so were the big hoop earrings, and he-man.

I was/am a late-90's and early-mid '00s teen. I guess I missed out on most of that stuff (which, by the looks of it, I'm grateful, lol). Well, except, I was, and still am, addicted to Nintendo ;)

But that's just my two cents.
