The new shows suck

MTV was at it’s best back then, can’t tell me otherwise

Wait. Hear me out. What if Bambi is based on a true story?

I can too.

I mean, she's not wrong...

If you HAVE use these, you have both purse Advil and home Advil. :)

That's how you knew it was going to be an awesome day

Such a brilliant and talented man.

I think I was 5 the 1st time my dad left me to go out for a bit. Not only did he come back, but he brought McDonald's and some movies from blockbuster. I'm holding back tears typing this. 🤣

I'm convinced that if you didn't, you didn't have a childhood. Change my mind.

Priorities for a 90s kids was definitely on another level kids nowadays won't be able to comprehend.

Loose one then the pencil was useless.

nah sprites to fancy we get the no-name brand ones

I still use Vaporub. That's never gone outta style

Somewhere out there is an old Polaroid of me on a couch like that (with the orange flowers and log cabin) with chicken pox

Don't forget the Robitussin.

The nostalgia is strong in this one. Sick at grandma's house watching game shows and soap operas on the same couch all day long. Bring me back.

We’d get the knockoff saltines too

I hate saying the whole 'socialised healthcare' thing again, so I won't. When I was sick as a kid you got a bottle of Lucozade (from the chemist in a glass bottle with orange cellophane round it) and probably soup if you had a sore throat..

I loved being able to stay home have a 7up, maybe a grilled cheese and watch the price is right with my mom. Best days ever, even though I felt like s**t!

The sprite should be a Canada Dry ginger ale

We got Shasta or store brand

This was totally the childhood of me and my friends, everything right down to the couch...it should definitely be higher

Swap out the Sprite for Canada Dry Ginger Ale, and yes!

Still cures most ills though…

It's gotta be 7-Up or nothing at all

Still my go to method.

Ginger ale. Although I didn't like it, so I got pepsi

And the chicken soup was either homemade or Lipton's, with the tiny little noodles!!

what does being poor have to do with it? Rich people get colds, too!

Nah. I just had yoghurt with no fancy flavors in and some blue soda that I liked. I think it was the one called "toilet water"? (In my country we had these fun sodas labelled with nasty things. And I think the blue soda was toilet water. Can't recall the other names atm.).

TOO MANY NAME BRANDS IN THIS PIC

Except we drank ginger ale instead of sprite

sprite? maybe vernor's...

"vitamin c and cocaine"

In the UK, mine was Heinz tomato soup, lucozade and when I was still very young, Crown Court on TV. Oh! And school's programme, How We Used to Live. I loved that!

Only its off brand

Who remembers mercuricome!! 😉

Change the sprite to Vernor's and you're in Michigan!

We had ginger ale instead of sprite.

We weren't poor: I always caught the flu going home for the Christmas holidays. And we had Canada Dry Ginger Ale. I read instead of watching television. Daytime TV was a mystery until I was in my 30s. (I was 32 when my child was born. I had six weeks to do ... something while he slept.)

You forgot the peppermint! Lol
