Those were the days!
14 April 2006 10:02I actually stole this off a friend's Xanga, but it made me feel SO nostalgic that I simply had to share.
ANYBODY UNDER THE AGE OF 13 SHOULD NOT RE-POST THIS.
JUST CAUSE YOU WERE BORN IN '93' OR '94' DOES NOT MEAN
YOU ARE A 90s KID.
IT'S NOT LIKE YOU COULD REMEMBER SOME OF THE ORIGINAL SIMPSONS.
YOU KNOW YOU'RE A BRITISH 90s KID IF...
YOU CAN SING THE RAP TO "THE FRESH PRINCE OF BELL AIR" - Yep, but I learned that when I was a teenager!
YOU'VE WORN LEGGINGS AND FELT COOL - I *was* cool, dammit!!
YOU USED TO LOVE PLAYING WITH YOUR "PUPPY IN MY POCKETS"
YOU REMEMBER WHEN IT WAS ACTUALLY WORTH GETTING UP ON A SATURDAY MORNING TO WATCH LIVE & KICKING OR SM:TV.
YOU HAD A HUGE FRINGE AT SOME POINT IN YOUR CHILDHOOD. - I have photo evidence
YOU REMEMBER READING AND WATCHING "GOOSEBUMPS" - they were actually dreadful, but it was light entertainment
YOU TOOK PLASTIC CARTOON LUNCH BOXES TO SCHOOL - 101 Dalmatians. Mine kept popping open, though.
YOU KNOW THE WORDS FROM THE SHAKEY JAKE MILKSHAKE ADVERTS - Wibble Wobble Yum Yum.
YOU REMEMBER THE CRAZE OF YO-YOS AND TAMAGOTCHI'S - *winces* Ohhh yes.
YOU STILL GET THE URGE TO SAY "NOT" AFTER EVERY SENTENCE.
NOT. - Squee!
YOU KNEW THAT KIMBERLY, THE PINK RANGER, AND TOMMY, THE GREEN RANGER WERE MEANT TO BE.
YOU COLLECTED POKEMON CARDS. - I let my brother do that one.
YOU PLAYED AND/OR COLLECTED POGS. - I gave up. I was a useless POG player and I couldn't afford more.
YOU HAD A WEIRD ALIEN THAT LIVED IN GOOEY STUFF IN A PLASTIC 'POD' AND THOUGHT IF YOU STUCK 2 BACK TO BACK THEY WOULD HAVE A BABY! - I did try.
YOU WATCHED THE ORIGINAL POSTMAN PAT, FIREMAN SAM AND NINJA TURTLES. - I wanted to *be* Donatello!
YIKES PENCILS WERE THE BEST!-WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM? - those were the days...
YOU REMEMBER WHEN THE NEW BEANIE BABIES WERE ALWAYS SOLD OUT - *cringes*
YOU GOT YOUR MUM TO BUY 'BN' BISCUITS. - *hums their jingle*
YOU USED TO WEAR THOSE STICK ON EARRINGS, NOT ONLY ON YOUR EARS BUT AT THE CORNERS OF YOUR EYES.
YOU KNOW THE MACERENA BY HEART.
"TALK TO THE HAND".
YOU REMEMBER THE TIME BEFORE LITERACY AND NUMERACY HOUR EXISTED. - damn right! I'm proud of it!
YOU THOUGHT BRAIN FROM "PINKEY AND THE BRAIN" WOULD FINALLY TAKE OVER THE WORLD.
YOU REMEMBER BUM BAGS. - I totally had one. It was "Forever Friends" - is that another 90s kid thing?
YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO BE ON FUN HOUSE
YOU COLLECTED TAZOS. - well, the cool kids did...
2 WORDS,
SPICE GIRLS.
RE-POST THIS IF YOU ARE A BRITISH 90s KID AND CAN RELATE TO ANY OF THESE
(Or don't! I'm sure LJ doesn't need every 90s kid to repost this...)
Am up early - riding is at 11 cos they finish at lunchtime on Good Friday, so we've booked a morning lesson. Need to finish this tea and get my jodphurs on...
