A Collection of 90s and Early 2000s Snacks We Totally Forgot Existed (But Would Like Back Please)

The turn of the millennium was, for lack of a better term, a lawless wasteland of foods and snacks. Before the world went health-crazy and started passing laws on what we can and cannot feed our children, our parents would just buy whatever crazy concoction the food companies dreamed up—and we ate it up! Purple ketchup? Sure! Jell-O Pudding Cereal made from 130% pure sugar? Why not! Remember that disgusting green slime stuff from Nickelodeon? They froze it and sold it to us as ice pops! And we…

1960s Fashion That Slapped So Hard We Want to Build a Time Machine and Go Shopping

Don't you find it strange that we don't have a “look” these days? If we look back exactly 100 years, to the roaring 20s, fashion had a certain look to it; you could identify that people are from the 1920s just from the way they dressed. Same for the 1940s and 50s, the 60s, 70s. 80s and 90s. But it feels like ever since the new millennium arrived, people just dress… “normal”, whatever that means.

32 GenX Childhood Snapshots to Give You a Burst of Nostalgia (June 15, 2024)

It makes me appreciate all the comforts of life we have today while also making me less anxious about life in general. people are so afraid of everything today but I still remember drinking from the garden hose and going to my friend's house without any actual way…

39 Nostalgic Snapshots of 80s Malls for Veteran Mallrats Who Miss the Good Old Days

A few days ago, I uploaded a meme that jokingly suggested abandoned malls should be repurposed as Gen X senior homes , and to be honest, I can't stop thinking about it. Sure, it's a ridiculous notion—old malls don't have the facilities needed to function as retirement homes, but come on! Most of my fondest memories from the 80s and 90s are from those malls. Spending time with friends at the food court, feeding coin after coin into the arcade machines—the mall had everything we wanted, and we sp…

31 Nostalgic Technology Snapshots We All Have Stored in the Back of Our Collective Hard Drive

Isn't it wild to think about the fact that we can be nostalgic to an era that was dominated by computers, gadgets and video games ? It seems like so much time has passed and yet nothing has really changed. Obviously today's technology is far more advanced than what we had back in the 80s, 90s and early 2000s but is it really that different? The internet was slow, but it was there. Computer screens could display 256 colors (at best), yet they still transported us into dynamic, virtual worlds. If…

We know that sometimes you feel really old while talking about your childhood during the 1990s ; you feel like the younger generations are looking at you in the same way that you looked at older people talking about the 1940s when you were a child. But there's one huge difference - your childhood was awesome! You see, back in the early 20th century life kinda sucked; everyone was poor, there was no entertainment and you had to boil your food before you ate it. However, the late 20th century was…
