No computers except ones with black screens and green text :O
The music, the long sessions of skateboarding with my friends and mostly, genuine laughter.
Nostalgia kicks in and it feels great.
What I miss the most from the 90's is my time at the university.
This:
486DX2 66Mhz AST computer with 8MB of RAM 540 MB HHD a 36k modem and a 4x CDROM.
16-bit Sound Blaster Vintage (ISA slot ) 3.5" Floppy drive. Windows 95. I think I paid like $2500 for this.
Edit: it was a 56k modem
Could walk through an airport right up to the departure gate to see people off without getting molested by TSA
Doug was pretty awesome. As well as Rugrats.
I miss my YoYo ball, most, though. Also, our first cordless phone was a monster with a foot long antennae that went about 30 feet out before dying horribly. That was awesome back then.
Edit: Also, my first computer was an IBM terminal that was just a huge text editor with a command line calculator. That thing was the cream of the crop until about 92 when Windows 3.1 came out and I had to ditch the terminal.

Freakin' infraction points...how do they work?!
Well I was a kid growing up in the 90s. This is my experience.
OMG!!!! I soooo agree with you regarding Cartoon Network. I feel sorry for the kids that watch the channel now. The shows are so boring and lame. I loved the cartoons back then with Top Cat, Swat Cats, etc. Had some pretty cool shows.
Secondly, I miss kindergarten, middle-school. Just the whole thing about being innocent and nothing to worry about when you are small/young compared to all the crap you have to deal with now.
Well just have to say this...sorry...I miss the music scene in general. Music was inspirational and fun to listen to during the 90s. Now its sad to listen to the music that gets played on the radio, real sad.
I don't really remember if it was Christmas or my Birthday since they are just a couple of weeks apart, but anyways, I had been looking to get this PC game..."Road Rash". We went to the store and they had a 4-game package that had NFS 3 Hot Pursuit, Road Rash, Fifa 99 and another game. I got that one year. Good times.
I got really famous in my middle school as the star of my soccer team. Guys who were in like high school and people I didn't know would come up to me. Was on fire that one year. Ended the season as the highest goal scorer before I was shifted to defense the following year due to me lacking stamina.
Taking off from gatwick airport with a cricket bat as carryon luggage...aaaah the good times =)
The world was so much more innocent back then
Kolopotho: I will find it incredibly shocking and rare if some guy walks up to a girl in a pub and says "i play a level 80 druid in world of warcraft" to which she will respond with "TAKE ME NOW".

RIP Bradley.
Supernintendo was in the 90s right?
Spending the majority of time with people in RL was nice.
Darkwing Duck.
In the 90's I was single, childless, didn't have a real job. Ah, good times.
MTV was awsome back then, it was music videos, and I loved that alternative/rock of the time (Nirvana, Live, Candlebox, Soundgarden to name a random few).
Mario Party was fun back then.
The controlers for my game systems didn't require batteries to be recharged daily.
Speaking of cartoons, Gargoyles
Even action figures back then were cooler. I had all kinds of TMNT and Marvel/DC, and they were posable, they didn't all have to do stuff. Yes, anyone figuring out my age, I collected action figures up into my twenties, then I had kids so I could buy them stuff.
The last collection of action figures i bought before having to pretend i wasn't into them was Earthworm Jim. Those toys, video games, and cartoon all sort of wrap up what I miss about the 90's.
The Simpsons was funny back then.
Seinfeld, Friends... good stuff.
Watching the birth of the internet. I can remember early 90's when we didn't have it. The first time I chatted online (with a friend about a mile from me) was so exciting. I don't know when we'll see a revolution like that again.
Thank you zomgname for the signature and avatar!
$1 pack of cigs and $1 a gallon gas, getting baked everyday and partying every night...yeah, I was a teen in the 90's. In the moment, the 90's sucked, but in hindsight it was the time of my life.
