| Centurion | Post; You Know You're A 90's Kid If...You've ever ended a sentence with the word "PSYCHE!" You can sing the rap to "The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air" You remember when Kurt Cobain, Tupac, River Phoenix, and Selena died. You know that "WOAH" comes from Joey from "Blossom" and that "How Rude!" comes from Stephanie from "Full House" You remember when it was actually worth getting up early on a Saturday to watch cartoons. You got super excited when it was Oregon Trail day in computer class at school. You remember reading "Goosebumps" You know the profound meaning of "Wax on, wax off" You have pondered why Smurfette was the only female smurf. You took plastic cartoon lunch boxes to school. You danced to "wannabe" by the Spice Girls, Females: had a new motto, Males: got a whole lot gay-er. (so tell me what you want, what you really, really want.) You remember the craze when the banning of slap bracelets and slam books happened. You still get the urge to say "NOT" after (almost) every sentence...Not... Where in the world is Carmen San Diego? was both a game and a TV game show. You knew that Kimberly, the pink ranger, and Tommy, the green* Ranger were meant to be together. *later to be white "I've fallen and I can't get up" You remember going to the skating rink before there were inline skates Two words... Trapper Keeper. You ever got injured on a Slip 'n' Slide You wore socks over leggings scrunched down "Miss Mary Mack, Mack, Mack, all dressed in black, black, black, with silver buttons, buttons, buttons, all down her back, back, back" SHE ASKED HER MOTHER MOTHER MOTHER FOR FIFTY CENTS CENTS CENTS TO SEE THE ELEPHANTS PHANTS PHANTS JUMP OVER THE FENCE THE FENCE THE FENCE he jumped so high high high he touched the sky sky sky and he didnt come back back back til the forth of july ly ly he jumped so low ow ow he stubbed his toe toe toe and thats the end end end of the elephants show show show You remember boom boxes vs. CD players You remember New Kids on The Block when they were cool You knew all the characters names and their life stories on "Saved By The Bell" You played and or collected "Pogs" You had at least one Tamagotchi, GigaPet or Nano and brought it everywhere You watched the original Care Bears, My Little Pony, and Ninja Turtles Yikes pencils and erasers were the ****. All your school supplies were "Lisa Frank" brand. (pencils, notebooks. binders. etc.) You remember when the new Beanie Babies were always sold out. You used to wear those stick on earrings, not only on your ears, but at the corners of your eyes. You remember a time before the WB. You've gotten creeped out by "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" You know the Macarena by heart. "Talk to the hand" ... enough said You thought Brain would finally take over the world You always said, "Then why don't you marry it!"

| Centurion | Oh yes, I remember the 90's well. I remember the Monica Lewinsky scandal well, mainly because my Last name is Whitehouse, and the others kids just ran with that, and I'm pretty sure there isn't a clinton joke from that era I haven't heard. I remember every guy I hung around with (And even some of the girls) had a favorite Power Ranger. The Alternative to that at my school was actually knowing Martial Arts. I remember the literally thousands of theories for determining a fake Pokemon Card. Everyone had their own system I swear. And yes as a good Metallica fan I remember the Napster Scandal, and the controversiese around the Load and ReLoad Albums. (Mainly Reload though didn't start listening to Metallica till 97,) Oh and speaking of 90's music, It was not the industries finest hour I will say that. Spice Girls, Backstreet Boys, THE MACARINA. There were a few good things to come out (The Offspring, Living End etc) but yeah, not the greatest decade for music.
