50 Of The Best Posts And Memes To Celebrate The Wild ‘90s, As Shared On This Facebook Page
Interview
Nostalgia is a powerful thing, Pandas. It can remind us of the good old days and make us want to go back so badly that we (re)start working on our Time Machine. Take us back to the ‘90s! Please!
Depending on whom you ask, the ‘90s were a simpler time. A better time! It might be the rose-tinted glasses warping our view, but there’s a very deep longing for that sweet, sweet decade. The ‘Flashback 90s’ Facebook page is a celebration of all things related to the ‘90s, and we’re here to share the bittersweet pics with all of you Pandas.
Scroll down, upvote your fave pics, and tell us all about what you miss about the ‘90s the most. Do we have any Pandas in the crowd tonight who miss another decade entirely? Tell us all about why they were even better in the comments.
Bored Panda got in touch with Danny, the founder of the 'Flashback 90s' Facebook page, and they were kind enough to answer our questions about the inspiration behind the project and shared their thoughts on nostalgia. Read on for the full exclusive interview about "simpler but unforgettable" times when technology wasn't as advanced, but we were all far more connected.

Wait: there are commercials on streaming services? That makes me glad I never subscribed to any.
Danny told us that they founded 'Flashback 90s' all the way back in 2016. It was all done for the sake of entertainment. "I thought to myself, I would like to share memories from my childhood in the '90s, I wonder if other people online can relate to the same things. And that’s how the page started and continued over the years," they shared the inspiration behind the brilliant social media project.
The mastermind behind the Facebook page believes that the '90s were the last memorable decade where technology was advancing rapidly, but we weren't consumed by it yet. Unlike now. Tech used to have a very strong social aspect to it.

"People would tune in to watch the same shows at the same time every night because it was a topic to be discussed with classmates or coworkers the next day. Renting movies was not only about picking a film to watch, it was a way for friends and family to get together on a Friday night. Playing video games on the Nintendo was something new and fun, you could go over to your friends' or family members' homes and play the console for hours!" they shared.
"Waking up every Saturday morning to watch your favorite cartoons and eating a bowl of cereal is unforgettable…. Making a trip to Toys R Us for that new hot toy was always an adventure! Those times were much simpler but unforgettable. We might have camera phones today, and we could record anything we want, but I guarantee you that our nostalgic memories are much more precious. I think that’s why we like to think about the '90s and all those fun moments in life," they shared their honest feelings about their childhood.

Bored Panda was interested to get Danny's opinion on how they'd compare the '90s to 2022. "Let’s just say, if I could travel back in time, I would definitely go back to the '90s. Yes, in 2022 we have advanced technologically and brought awareness to certain topics, but the '90s will always be greater! When I think of the '90s, I think about the Good Times!"
The ‘Flashback 90s’ social media project documents the coolest, most unique things about the decade. From tech and food to trends and toys, it all really is a major flashback to some of our childhoods and teenage years.

Over 279k people love the Facebook page, and it’s easy to see why. It’s comforting to take a peek into the lives we had, the stuff we used to enjoy. And it can be a great way to escape our current problems. Even if it’s just for a few minutes.
A while back, Bored Panda analyzed nostalgia and the role it plays in our lives during a couple of interviews with Kemi Omijeh, a child and adolescent therapist based in London and a member of the BACP.
She explained that our memories of the past can contribute to our sense of self and well-being. Though, not all the time.

"The period of time we tend to be nostalgic over are significant moments that stood out. Perhaps it was a time when we felt happiest or safest, or perhaps it’s a period where things changed for us,” she said.
The actual decade (or shorter time period) we’re nostalgic for doesn’t actually matter. What does, however, is what the era means to us. "Our memories of the past can change over time depending on how often we revisit and also depending on what is going on for us in the present,” the therapist said.

“Of course, the '90s was better! But then again, I may be being very biased here,” Kemi told Bored Panda that who we were during a certain time period influences our perception of it later on in life.
"Generally speaking, the better decade is associated with youth and freedom. Nostalgia also often gives us rose-tinted glasses from which to reflect from. How we reflect on the past decades can play a part in how we engage with the current decade.”

I don't remember the exact cost but it was several thousand. It lasted up until plasma tvs made it to market. It was still working the day he brought home his first flat screen. he ended up giving the projection tv to a neighbor down the street and they ended up using it for a while longer until the bulb finally gave out.

The psychologist believes that our childhoods form the foundation of who we are as adults. We frequently revisit our childhoods, and they influence our present. However, we’re usually only nostalgic for the time when we were kids if we actually had good childhoods and felt loved, nurtured.
"If we’ve had a difficult childhood, it can be hard to feel nostalgic, instead it will feel like something we need to get over in order to move on," the therapist explained to Bored Panda.

Meanwhile, if you find yourself daydreaming too much, you should start off by trying to identify your patterns. “Think about the times you usually daydream, is there something about that situation or those times that mean you’re daydreaming? Do something about it if that is the case. Set a time limit, use a timer if it ensures you stop," she said.
“Turn your daydream into a visualization or goal exercise. Your daydreams could be a communication about your innermost desires. Could you begin to plan how to achieve those desires?"

However, if you’re talking about a person who’s in their nineties, then you’d write it as someone being in their 90’s. So yeah, you’re nostalgic for the ‘90s, not the 90s or 90’s (or, God forbid, the 90s’).

I didn't really enjoy Courage or Rocko's that much and I couldn't STAND the show Codename: Kids Next Door. I found it practically unwatchable. I mean none of them were bad, they just were more weird than funny. I only started watching cartoons again when Spongebob came out and the next era after that started to get really funny. Spongebob felt like my humor style was coming back after the Ren and Stimpy style weird/grossout comedy faded away a bit. EDIT: Also, because I struggled to enjoy Nick cartoons I remember watching a LOT of anime in the 90s. Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Digimon etc. That stuff was bomb imo. Actually, looking at the other pic of 90s cartoons with Batman, Xmen, Spiderman on it etc, I liked all those. Maybe it was just 90s Nickelodeon stuff I found weird.

Almost every 90s sitcom or cartoon house setup still rings in me head like memories that aren't mine. Rachel and Monica's apartment, The Simpsons' Home, Seinfeld's apartment, The Huxtable's, The Banks' Mansion and The Boarding House are just some of the houses I feel if I somehow magically wound up in one, I could navigate them pretty well.

I know someone that went on Judge Joe Brown... she said they ring you and pretend to be sympathetic, and paint JJB like a real impartial judge who will decide on the day so you can plead your case. But when they film they have already decided the outcome and the verdict is all scripted. You defend yourself for nothing-- if they decide you're the 'loser' they edit it all to reflect that. She got called to the show by an ex friend who had lent her a power tool. Before returning it, my friend checked it was working and was in the same state as it was borrowed (I can confirm, I saw it in use) but when she returned it, her friend said it was 'broken' now and wanted inflated damages for a new one, so they sued. In lieu of going to court, they went on the show. The friend broke the tool themselves and lied. My friend couldn't prove the tool was in the same condition as she got it, so she lost. They treated her like a villain and she knew she should have known better and just gone to court, but she believed the production assistants. Also the show pays everything. Dunno if Judy is like that but JJB was.

Life sucked. Bullied at school. Scolded at home for not being able to wash the dishes as perfect and fast as my folks wanted. Folks shouting and arguing. Long walks in -30C weather to school and back. Hours and hours of homework every night along with an ill-timed science project having to be done in a week, along with 2 tests and a book needing to be read by tomorrow. My school didn't have a cafeteria, so if you forgot to pack a lunch or you didn't get anything you like to eat you're SOL unless someone was nice enough to trade, or give you their squished American cheese and bologna mayo sandwich.
