when artists do pixel art for 80s / 90s vintage machines without understanding the color/palette restrictions of those devices
AustinTracht
It makes me angry when they say only 90s kids will remember a show and that show still played in the 2000s.
WillJeSuis
When people talk about what era they were born in- "Oh god please just stop right there."
Visiblur
Yep, must be boring to have to identify by a decade
ProxyPlayerHD
i was born in 1999... and i know more about the C64 then some other people my age of obove
katuk20
<1>I think people confuse being a "90s kid" as someone who's born in that decade. What it really means is that people grew up that decade.
katuk20
<2> So, for instance, I was born in 1997. That doesn't really make me a "90s kid". I was born then, but I grew up in the 2000s, which...
katuk20
<3> logically makes me a "00s kid".

I was born in 1999, but my family was a little behind on times. I used dial-up and watched old cartoons when I was a kid.
embrew24
Was born in '86, and I'm a 90's kid, not an 80's kid.
ErinFromTheOffice
Fact.
idonthaveanyideawhatthehelliamtalkingabout
yeah, i was born in '81 and i am well, both really, closer to 80's kid though

As an aging Boomer the 90's are like so last week.....
StephenDaniels
Yeah to us old farts you kids born after 1990 aren't 90's kids, you're kids.

That's like Taylor swift going all crazy about 1989. Girl wasn't even alive in the year for 3 full weeks.

The 90s ended in like 2006
sputnicht
Was born smack in the middle of 80's. Don't remember 80's but remember the 90's perfectly. I am the 90's kid.

Not just a 90's kid, but THE 90's kid.

We have finally found him. *the* 90s kid.
squiretadpole365
I was born in 1970. I have clear memories from 75-76 on, but I'm an 80's kid. Middle to High School was 82-88.
placidkiwi
Agreed. Birthed in '78, memories of the 80's but the 90's are the decade I most identify with.
Littlemeg
Same, and yes correct.
MrWalker78
I'm born 78, I'm an 80's kid too.

Kids born in the 1980's = 90's kids.

Mid-late 1970s too, imo

I was 9 in 1999! I may be the only one that finds that cool..
BuickRiviera
I was born January 1990, there's just one week of the year when my age isn't the current year plus 10!
Lizardlover
Nah, I too was born in 1990, it makes remembering my age sooo much easier. I imagine kids born in 2000 and 1980 feel the same
Retromorphic
December 1990. I always forget how old I am 26... no 27. No. 26 oh fuck it mid 20s.
Stronghold07
I was born in 2000, and I think I have it even easier.
ButtsandBewbs
Uh... People born in 1999 are almost all 18 now. In fact, in 2018 there won't be a single kid alive born in the 20th century.

Don't remind me that I'm not a child anymore ):

I was born in 90. We had black and white gameboys that we couldn't see in the dark, we rewinded vhs tapes, we listened to no doubt. Ease up

80s babies, we know your memories are more vivid but we still get some credit for being born in early 90s, right?

Look, make, my meme/gif game is strong young one.
UnsolicitedInsults
I think those of us born in the 90s are actually early 2000s kids and it was pretty different. Let's start our own meme
rizion
I see it as an overlap thing like with generation cut off. so 80-94 90s kid, 90-04 00s kid, 90-94 overlap
fewermelons16
Ya i'm 93 and I remember the late 90's and early 00's as the golden age. I utopian time period of Pokemon and Spongebob
TerritorialRotbart
I've never met a 93 year old who enjoyed Pokemon.
fewermelons16
Everyone at the nursing home remembers the late 90's and early 00's quite well. We all listen to Blink-182 and play with our tomagatchi
UnsolicitedInsults
I spose. I'm 94, so I feel very in the middle
rizion
Its a double dip, cause some of us can remember late 90 stuff. and many were exposed to reruns/repeats of things that felt original at time
rizion
92 here and yeah
andyrc
92 here as well. I feel like I got a good chunk of 90s fun before the new century started.
SwordsToTheSkyWeRideAtDawn
If you were born 1980, 1985; you are a '90's kid.
legallynotabinder
My cousin was born in 1990 and I would say he easily embodied the 90s

Born in early 90s, still a 90s kid, no? Born in '99 you're a 90s baby haha

gitguuud
I was born in the 80s and consider myself a 90s kid because that's when I grew up. Is that not what we're supposed to be doing?
Woofbloodywoof
I feel cheated, I was born in '97 but I lived for a large part with the 90's kids toys 'cos that's what we got at car boot sales.
feengineer
You are right. If you were aware (older than 3-4) in the 90s you are a 90s kid. If you don’t remember the 90s you aren’t.
serpentinebaboo
That's a little generous. I'd say you have to be solidly in elementary school and spend at least a few years in the 90s. 92 or 93 cutoff.
serpentinebaboo
I don't even consider kids born after 91-92 to be 90s kids. It's when you were a kid in school. Not when you were born.
LAIXWILM
I was born in 2000 and i get all the 90s kid things so half of them arnt even 90s kid things
HolzKohlen
I was born in 94 and I barely remember the 00s.

TheDrunkenWrench
Hey, Calvin Harris has love for me because I was born in the 80s.
Corin
Yeah, I'm '91 and I feel like that's about the latest someone should be calling themselves a '90s kid, honestly.
dduncan55330
I was born in 93. So i caught the tail end of the 90s into the 2000s, also known as the beginning of the end... fuckin millennials

92. I feel you.
shuttlecockinakumquat
You're a ##'s kid of whatever decade you spent the most time in primary & secondary school.
rizion
Yes but shh the others dont realize this and I'd hate to break the illusion
ThatSoundPeopleMakeWhenTheyStandUp
It's only because being a "00's kid" has negative connotations so they try to ride on our coattails.
Bambi577
Yeah I've always taken "90s kid" to mean that's when your formative years happened. So like approx. 5-18.
kaztas
So in 89 I was 6.....am I an 80's kid then?!?!
rizion
Coo by that logic I am a 90's and a thousands kid.... oh yeah boy-o so many nostalgias...like at least 12
IJustTookABathAndFeltLikeYouShouldKnowItWasAGoodOne
i thought that too, otherwise would be a "90's baby"
feengineer
That’s what I think too. If you can’t relate with people that grew up during that time but you were born in the 90, you aren’t a 90s kid.
PostNutDepression
... I was born in 1994, I vividly remember a lot of stuff from the 90's.
feengineer
I was born in 85. I remember the 80s. Am I an 80s kid? Of course not.
PostNutDepression
Ehh, I personally think I'm a little bit of both. Not that I care, the term is nostalgic trash designed to make people feel special.
glaug
Yeah, nobody uses "existed at some point before midnight, 1 January 2000" as the criterion. It's not like being a 90s kid is some great feat
shuttlecockinakumquat
Being an 00's kid would be shitty and confusing, though.
TatsuAce
Can relate
Xtendstion
I just consider myself being a exact millennial
professionalpootalker
Born in '98, I don't remember shit until about 2002, would never claim to be a 90's kid seeing as all I did was shit myself and cry.
Tinebra
You could be like the first person that I see born in those years that isn't a complete idiot!

ThePiedPiperofRuination
I've always called 2000-2005 the time when the 90s spilled over into the next decade.

Nah man. 2000-2005 was a war zone. 90's fighting to stay, 2000's fighting to drive them out. That's how Limp Bizkit became a name.

The 90s weren't about the stuff you had. It's about the lack of instant connectivity man. You like, had to plan communication and stuff.

I wasn't allowed any type of connectivity until I was 13. And that was half of a laptop connected to a CRT monitor to play wow new grounds.

WinoCrimesand69s
My opinion, 90s kids are anyone born 85' to 93' after that, more like they were leaving the Saturday cartoon on to educational shows

You started the 90s as a two year old, your a 90s kid

You're*. And culturally, not so much - too poor to do any of the "90s culture" that makes a 90s kid vs just a kid.

It's possible, but not likely to be able to remember that. I was 5 when it came down and just remember scattered images and my mom crying
