They all went home and shaved off their mullets and changed into their tye dye shirts.

1990 said good bye to one of the best decades ever, and welcomed a new decade. Two decades we’ll never experience ever again.
-
From one great decade to another..I wish i could experience the 80’s to the 90’s all over again

After this day (December 31, 2019) we say "goodbye 2010s; hello 2020s" also the first of the '90s babies hit their 30s!

As a 42 year old, I divide my life into pre-2000 and post-2000. The World of pre-2000 has almost literally nothing in common with the World we live today. No cell phones, no internet(I know that the internet was already around in the 1990's, but almost no one had it), no instant communication, etc. Growing up as a kid, I did what the kds of the 1950's and before that did: I played outside, with actual physical toys, camping trips, playing sports, going to clubs and socializing with other kids in the wimming pools, etc.. On weekends, sleepovers at our friends' houses, going to the mall to meet other kids and then watching Jean-Claude Van Damme films on VHS or playing super-nintendo In fact, video games are the only thing that my generation did that kids today could realte to. What kid growing up in the 1990's doesn't remember playing Street Fighter 2? But even when it comes to video games, the variety was much smaller than today. I was a young man in my very late teens to early twenties when the World became what it is today,: a World of "connectedness" where you are constantly in touch with everyone, all the time. I see kds today,. and they have nothing in common with how kids were back when I was a teen in the mid to late 90's. They seem more like human-machine hybrids really. They are literally glued to their tablet or smartphone 24/7. Even when they are pretending to do something else, like walking in the malll or watching a movie, they spend 90% of the time checking their smart phones for likes and updates. I went to the movie the other day, and the kids were checking their phones more than watching the film. It seems like they live in the "cloud" and the real World is just this primitive boring place where they must feed their bodies so that they can keep looking into their phones. I believe that a lot of the anxiety and suffering that people have nowadays is due to the fact that they are constantly connected to each other 24/7 with no breaks whatsoever.

the end of the 80s right before our eyes 😭 there will never be another decade as amazing as that decade it's impossible to duplicate

12/31/89 I was a pre-schooler… the world was Golden & all my relatives I knew were still alive ❤️

Wow can't believe 1990 was 30 years ago. I was in 2nd grade those were good times..lol RIP Ms. Natalie Cole

Born four months earlier in 1989, but the 90's are still my decade. I spent more years in the 90's than I ever did in the 80's. I didn't even spend a single year in the 80's. The dilemma of being born in the last year of a decade. Goodbye 80's. Welcome to the incredible, awesome 90's!

goodbye 80's, hello 90's!

I was somewhere in the middle of that wonderful craziness in Times Square 😊 on that NYE. I was 6 months pregnant with my youngest son, who will turn 31 in April of 2021.
-
things seemed so much simpler in the 1980's but then again back in the 80's older people probally wished they were back in the 1950's
-
If time machines were a real thing, i'd go back to these times just to see what it was like.
-
The start of the 90's is officially 30 years old DAMN - I was born in 87
-
The actual end of the 80s. Saddest video ever for 80s fans.
-
They had no idea what the 90s would have to come
-
Just think, the 1990s was also THE decade in which the internet as we know it started to come into being even though it has already existed prior to the '90s.
-
Jesus, people born in 1990 are now 30 year olds, and I keep imagining them as 16 year olds !!!
-
I was born 5 months later ! 1990 a good year
-
Wish we where back in the 80's!
