Waaazzzaaaap
That ad campaign started in 99, its really more of a 2000’s thing.
Ya, but it proves I lived through the 90’s 😆
The 90s were from 1995 to 2005. That’s just my opinion. I know it sounds dumb. Many things from 1990 to 1994 feel like the 80’s.

Outside of America, this is interpreted as a reference to Scary Movie instead of the budweiser ad.
As a European, that’s indeed how I interpreted this.
Hahaha that’s the first thing that popped in my mind! 😂
Here in the Netherlands I never heard of it!
Rad! Thanks :)

Winamp.

I still use Winamp regularly.
Skins for winamp!
still using it as my PC media player
Encarta
I remember trying to play Mind Maze and knowing absolutely nothing.
I loved the video it has about nuclear fission reactions.
Y2K.
I survived idiocy of managers asking for Y2K compliant padlocks. As in, physical padlocks.
Hope you charged them double.
“We gotta get the Locksmith to come out and replace the microchips. Yeah, it’s going to be expensive but worth it”
Please tell us they did this… 😂
I mean, I wasn’t in charge of getting them, but learning about it was painful enough. I was young, and faith in humanity hadn’t been burned out of me yet.
Pogs
Remember Alf? He’s back! In pog form!
Came here to say this! My collection is MIA and it still makes me sad thinking about it.
Your parents threw it away
Along with my pokemon cards
Hey can I come over and slam ur pogs?
Netscape
Linux and Mac users can hold on to a little piece of that history with the wonderful xscreensaver suite (its author, jwz, was a Netscape dude).
Even better just use Firefox it descended from Netscape Navigator.
Add to that, flying toasters
Tamagotchi

Myst
Ad Riven. I read all the novels, too!
Riven remake is underway!
This. Wait for the remake, the original plays like shit on modern Windows versions.
The bundle of myst games was on humble bundle a week or two ago. I’ve been waiting for the right time to immerse myself in myst VR and be just as confounded as I was as a kid. Then I get to see if Riven is still completely impossible for me.
Baud. Maybe kilobauds… That and “da bomb” are very memorable to me from then…
For a age of pre internet (for the masses) we sure had a lot of unique words :)
JNCO
Kikwear, too.
