Every decade is more than just the way they look. It’s also unique because of what it brought to culture and society in that time period, which defines its personality forever. The ’70s were all about peace n’ love but then things went south for a while as the 80s became synonymous with rock n’ roll (think heavy metal). However, by the nineties, a different take on rock music though not forgotten anyway! The 90s was a decade of monumental technological and cultural changes. It’s been said that the 1990s is when people really started using the Internet, cell phones became more common than ever before – even though they were only used for calling back then; it’s also where some iconic movies like Titanic came from, as well as many classic TV cartoons such as The Simpsons or Pokémon. If you were a 90’s kid, chances are you’ll enjoy this list of things that every 90s kid will appreciate. Sit back and have fun checking out these nostalgic memories!
