As a late GenX 90s kid: Fuck you for forgetting us AGAIN.
But this specifically is calling out getting the title of millennial, why would you expect gen X to be a part of the meme?
I’m not trying to start shit, but wouldn’t all people who were 90’s kids start the council at the same time due to how time flows?
Yeah, but as a member of Gen X, we’re the last to be able to own property.
Swings and roundabouts, innit?
Sure that’s possible for older GenX.
Xennials like myself had barely a few years (in my case months) before the dotcom bubble ruined our one generational leg up.
If I had been smart and dumped IT and went back to school for writing, I’d probably have a house, but stupid autistic me wanted to fucking be a computer person…
Tech pays just fine. Maybe not as much as being a lawyer, but there are people who make £50-100k per year working in tech as programmers, engineers, or professors. That’s a reasonable salary for most of the country. I know there are people in America making way more, though that does have to cover health care.
If you’d stop being the majority of conservative social media personalities we’d stop trying to forget you, you Charlie Kirk looking goofy motherfuckers.
The years are wrong. To be a 90s kid you need to be born by 1991.
Typically being a 90s kid means you experienced the 90s during your formative years. Not that you were born then.
As a humanist I think we should go with human first before or instead of these potentially divisive, arbitrary age brackets, contemporary generational labels, etc.
The boomers divided us up this way so they could shit on us. Always remember that.
Yeah bad news for anyone born after 1990 on being a 90’s kid…
I don’t think you understand how child culture works, frankly I doubt you have even the slightest grasp on how normal culture works and Wooohooo let me tell you child culture is a hell of a lot more complex and nuanced.
The media of our formative decades is what classifies us as the decade kid we are, and that only happens for people who live through the period old enough to contextualize abstract thought but young enough to be a separate social group than the adults.
So no, kids born in say 95 doesn’t fall into that impressionary period for being a ‘90s kid’ and all the rancid pedants like yourself that are milking this meme for clout are actively damaging the discourse.
Not that you care, none of you are actually here to advance knowledge or discussion. The internet was a mistake and I regret every cable I laid to help build it.
I did not choose it arbitrarily. At least now when I am banned I can say ‘I warned you’.
What’s the difference between 95-96 and 93-94? They all don’t remember most of the 90s.
That’s the memes opinion. I’d shave off a couple years more. Roll it back to like 91. You don’t get to be a 90s kid if you were only 6 or 7 when it ended.
I was born in '90. Some of my most cherished memories as a kid are playing 90’s video games: Donkey Kong Country 1-3, Super Mario World 1-2, and later, the revelation that was the N64. I didn’t get to watch a lot of TV, but when I did I loved 90’s cartoons like Dexter’s lab and Arthur (and Mobile Suit Gundam Wing whenever I could catch it, though that was exceptionally rare)
I vividly remember people stockpiling for Y2K and my mom turning on a radio to listen to the reports of 9/11.
I’m definitely a 90’s kid, and so is my brother who is a year younger than me ('91).
You sound like you’re arguing against me and reinforcing what I said at the same time. I said roll back being a 90s kid to like 1991. You’re saying you and your brother born in 90 and 91 are 90s kids. So did I?
Oh God, Y2K. My dad was in the Air Force and his unit was responsible for a big base’s networking. My dad had to go into work that night as they expected the entire base’s network to just erupt. We were all so worried about it and then … Nothing happened at all, he was home by 2am.
Old enough to play Ocarina of Time when it came out.
Or at least old enough to play it at your cousin’s house and ask your mom for it for christmas because you really wanted it but she wouldn’t buy it for you because she was in full 90’s helicopter parent mode and thought it looked too scary. I’m sure that’s a universal experience.

Still remember staying up till midnight on new years watching my brother play, he said I could have a turn in the morning. I did not get that turn in the morning.
I’ve been playing it on a PC emulator recently and it’s still really fun. The controls take a bit getting used to, but it’s great other than that. If you never got a chance to get your turn growing up, I highly recommend checking it out.
“No mom, it’s not scary at all!”
