10 Things 90s Kids Will Have To Explain To Their Children
this is floating on facebook right now
http://thoughtcatalog.com/2011/10-things-90s-kids-will-have-to-explain-to-their-children/
this is my fave:
9) Lisa Frank is not the name of a woman, it is the name of a movement, a culture, a way of living. It is a theory, a concept, a belief in something greater than yourself. It is the belief that all girls are entitled to dolphins covered with rainbows, jewel-encrusted frogs, and unicorns in acid-trip colors hugging each other. It is the ideology that no notebook is complete until it literally hurts your eyes to look at from so much color saturation. It is the hope that no school supply, no matter how insignificant, will be left un-bedazzled. It is the knowledge that your eraser cap, and that of your granddaughter?s, and her granddaughter?s after her, will not be some boring little nub?it will be a diamond covered with butterflies in a rainbow of colors. It is the dream of a better tomorrow.

Stand up for something you believe in.
never heard of Lisa Frank
Stand up for something you believe in.
Fun! I can think of so much more to add to that list...
Planning Bio
Julie - I think it just means kids in the 90s (and therefore born in the 80s)
I definitely had Lisa Frank trapper keepers and folders. I watched Clarissa and many other Nick shows religiously. Anyone else watch Square One? I begged my mom not to let it count against my allowed tv time since it was educational.
Some other weird 90s things I remember are Gak and pogs.
Dupe.
I think the mid-30s crowd has spoken
I thought it was b/c I didn't come to the US til I was a teenager, but turns out it's just b/c I am old
that I don't know most of these
Sweet Mother of God.
Although I guess I can't say much - my Trapper Keepers had photos of kittens and puppies on them. At least this is "art."
YES. Or the entire 80's. I was born in 77 and most of this stuff is lost on me. I know what most of them are, but can't say I watched/played with/listened to many of them at all.
Exactly-- which is what I think is odd. I think these are more related to people born in the 70s. Shout out for mid-thirties

I think that the list is geared to kids in late elementary or middle school in the early nineties.
I totally worked at Hallmark during the Beanie Baby craze. Killlll meeee.

Same here. I was born in 76. However, I did have an obsession with NKOTB, but I was from Boston--it was to be expected.
I was born in 1984 and this is basically the essence of my generation.
The only ones that didn't apply to me personally were Saved by the Bell (a little too young when it was on air and never got into the reruns as much as some other friends) and the Tamagotchis (a little too old, though some of my friends did have them).
