Nostalgia has a place in everyone's hearts, but no one floods the internet with their sentiments about the past as much as 90s kids. The 90s, after all, were a magical time when playing silly games outside all day met the development of modern technologies that have shaped and molded us into who we are now. And proud about it we are. However, since no age group spends online as much time as we do, cut us some slack, why don't you?

Many things made our childhood special — the CD player that wouldn't fit into any pocket, the legendary Tamagotchi, and hilarious 90s fashion that seem to have re-born nowadays quite seriously and not in the form of hilarious memes (much to our dismay). Most of these 90s nostalgia relicts are hardly available now, so we have to keep their memories alive. And what better way to do so than creating funny memes? Scroll down to check out the nostalgic selection of 90s trend that will instantly send every kid of the decade down the memory lane and upvote your favorites.

Who used DVD-R to burn audio disc? We always used CD-R because of the price benefit and it will anyway have the same capacity when using audio tracks!

1. That's the most 90's Jr High List ever. 2. I know from personal experience, you can fit more than nine songs on a mix CD and 3. That's a DVD-R. There's no playing that in your Sony boombox.

This doesn't add up...a "MIX CD" burned on a DVD+R. First thing +R didn't exist till 2002. Second, why waste a DVD+R to make a 9 song mix cd? EVEN EVEN if this was a DATA DISC for whatever reason and these were WAV files ....this still be the stupid thing to waste a DVD+R for 9 songs. Keep in mind DVD+R/DVD-R/CD-R in 99 (as this was supposedly made) was at VERY LEAST (even bought in bulk in a 50 pack, etc) would have been close to a buck a piece!!

I come from even more distant times, when the playlists were the tapes. and our trusted friend was the bic that was used to re-roll the tape when the tape player ate it.

When my best friend moved to France, we recorded a personal radioshow on tape to send each other. So we talked about stuff that was going on in our life with musical interventions. Unfortunately we lost contact after a couple of years. I still have the lettres and tapes she sent me.

The real issue was what little boys did at the top of the slide after dark. Also, how the hell are playground slides a "90's" thing?

When I grew up we didn't had such money to afford SONY. But there came another brand which copied sony and made these things accessible to many people - "AIWA". Does anyone else remember that brand ?

Worse with the ones that fall really slowly. The start of it wakes you up, then you spend the following 10 mins frozen in bed, trying to distinguish what the sound was and if you were actually still asleep or not lol

Nsync, Back Street Boys, U2, Nirvana, Metallica, Guns n Roses, The Verve, Savage Garden, Santana and hundreds of such more awesome bands. Thousand times better then todays crappy EDM and other techno nonsense. Glad to be born in that era. And Sorry how can I forget BRYAN ADAMS.
