1990-Early 2000 things you remember?

I watched the og xmen movies yesterday and was reminiscing about how everyone thought the special effects were amazing when it came out.... Wow how things have changed
 
Even in 2011 my elementary school had student computers that ran Windows XP. They were so slow that we were often given gum to pass the time. There was a children’s art software we’d use for assignments, but I can’t remember the name.

Those kangaroo snack packs that I can’t remember the name of??
The Hellboy movies
GameCube animal crossing & harvest moon
Blue’s Clues applesauce that was dyed blue and it weirded me out
I’ll probably think of more later

Got some moreee
-I legit cry whenever i watch the Suite Life On Deck, Hannah Montana, and Wizards of Waverly Place crossover again
-Old youtube
-When the song Fireflies came out everyone was bopping to it
-High School Musical was the biggest thing ever
-Emos were still relevant (they still are but it was a more popular style)
-One Direction (if that even counts)
-Nobody was depressed and we all just had a good time bopping to music in our living room while watching TV during the summer
-When cameras were still extremely popular
-Flip phones
-Waking up on Saturday and watching cartoons
-These:
 
Oh my god that was it
I was too young to get them in my school lunches but I’m pretty sure my oldest sister has had them before 😭
And I hear they were pretty good!
They’re back in some 7-11s in the US !
 
Wait, Dunkaroos are still here? I live in Canada (Ontario) and can't find them anywhere!
looks like they were sold here until 2018

-When the song Fireflies came out everyone was bopping to it
Honestly all of Owl City's music has that late 2000s/early 2010s sound to it. I remember listening his album Ocean Eyes a couple months ago and it was a super nostalgic experience.

- Poptropica and Club Penguin rlly popular
- Waking up early morning to watch Curious George, Between the Lions, or Clifford on PBS Kids
- People still used Facebook before it was mostly being used by older people, mostly for the games like Farmville.
- Sims 3 and Sims 3 were out (I still LOVE them to this day)
- Playing Kid Pix whenever I went to the computer lab with my class in primary school
- Having a Tamagotchi (I have a collection of Tamagotchis rn lemme get mine real quick)
- Magic Tree House books
- Noggin was still a thing with Moose and Zee
- Miniclip, Flonga, Y8, Agame, and Newgrounds
- Might B!, Making Fiends, and Invader Zim were my favorite shows
- Using manual projectors that looked like this:

Also the aesthetics of the early 2000s was always bright blue or pink with weird plasticky/metallic grey bevels and chisels. Its strange to see how aesthetics change each year to current modern 2020s soulless hyperminimalism.
 
I miss Toys R Us!
Miss the good old days when my sisters were better.

So many great things honestly. We used to have a lot of vhs tapes that my parents would put on a decently sized CRT TV for us to watch when we got a haircut. I grew up with the DS, that does fall in the mid to late 2000s era though. I used Windows XP a lot too, that was what my dad's laptop was running in the time and that's what were on all the computers at school for way long, perhaps six years ago they finally upgraded. There was just something about technology from this time that made it exciting and fun, it's just not that way anymore. I remember Pokémon was still pretty popular and I did watch the anime a few times, it's really the only anime I've really watched. And we watched a lot of PBS Kids since we didn't have cable back then, shows like this
Although I don't remember much from this time, I will always hold it near and dear to me, this was definitely a simpler time.
 
Anyone remember those Chubby pops? They were delicious! I always thought the bottle shape was neat as a kid.
