    I'm a 1990 baby and definitely remember all of these things. I was also a super girly-girl, so I also remember crazes like friendship bracelets, American Girl dolls, Polly Pocket (!!!), friend.links, the works...

    Only thing I didn't get (and I was born in '82, my sister in '85) was the number 23 reference. Care to remind me what that one stood for?

    I was thinking that same thing.

    '93. And the large majority of this stuff applies to me. I used to like, live on Sourheads. I can still get my hands on them! And they have Sourheads icepops, they are THA BOMB! Yeah this thread has brought back a lot of memories. But I was the one watching Daria and Beavis and Butthead too, even though I seriously should not have been. >.< Oh, and Waynes World.

    Well, I definitely agree that this is for kids who were raised in the 90's because I was born in '85 and all of this made me feel incredibly nostalgic. If I could find a Lisa Frank backpack to take to work with me today, I would, and it took a lot of convincing from my husband to keep me from buying that plastic Batman lunchbox with the matching thermos, lol. P.S. I love Quailman!

    An awful lot of this applies to those of us born in the 70's...

    23 refers to Michael Jordan, right?

    born in 81 and I remember doing many of these things as well, just not the late 90s stuff

    And my 5 year old thinks light up sneakers are still cool!

    90s baby right here, and oh man!! Nostalgia lane right there! I bought a pack of Warheads a few months ago because I saw them at the gas station by my apartment and flipped out! My boyfriend never had them before (he's from Germany) so it was a lovely feeling expressing my childhood memories while we puckered our faces. Haha

    Quite a lot of that resonates with me, and I was born in the 60s - but fortunately I never grew up.
