You're a 90s baby. 90s kids are 40.

[-] cobysev@lemmy.world 39 points 1 year ago

Can confirm. I was born in the early '80s. Am currently 39.

[-] GCostanzaStepOnMe@feddit.de 35 points 1 year ago

Thanks for confirming how age works 👍

[-] Cethin@lemmy.zip 12 points 1 year ago

Also can confirm. Just turned 30, was born in 93 and don't remember all that much about the 90s. I remember a decent amount of the late 90s, but that's really part of the 2000s. The early 90s is a totally different thing, and it's the 90s people always describe. Late 90s and 2000s are the matrix vibe.

[-] Blastasaurus@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

You understand this timeline really well for someone who didn't really experience the 90s.

It went from hair metal to grunge to pop punk and rap-metal across the decade.

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

The 90s ended in 2003-2005 change my mind.

[-] dezmd@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Also here to confirm, I just turned 18 and I was born in 80 and I just graduated high school and my whole life is ahead of me and I'm looking forward to the future tech of the 2000s.

Wait, what fucking year is it?

[-] staticblanket@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Solidarity brother/sister.

[-] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

That's what I was gonna say, I'm a 90s kid and I'm 39.

[-] RiceMunk@sopuli.xyz 56 points 1 year ago

The 90s is to modern kids what the 60s was to kids in the 90s

[-] elscallr@lemmy.world 34 points 1 year ago

Well that's just uncalled for

[-] Ryantific_theory@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I don't think I've taken emotional damage like this since I discovered what rejection felt like.

[-] Hubi@feddit.de 19 points 1 year ago
[-] rikudou 17 points 1 year ago

That's depressing.

[-] lugal@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 year ago

Don't make me feel as old as I am

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

And what the 50s was in the 80s. If Back to the Future was set today, Marty would go back to 1993.

[-] Bluehood380@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

Still would’ve been a toddler so woooh?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I hope one day your planet discovers the concept of humor.

[-] ShittyRedditWasBetter@lemmy.world -4 points 1 year ago

Every time I come to this place, I am viciously attacked.

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Lies, heinous lies!

I may have grown old, but I never grew up

[-] callouscomic@lemm.ee 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Somebody 30 years old is NOT a 90s kid. They barely would have been old enough to remember the last part of the 90s. They'd be an early 2000s kid.

People always get this wrong. What decade kid you were isn't when you were born, it's when you grew up. When you were like 8-16ish years old.

[-] Sludgeyy@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Hey Arnold 1996

Dexter's Lab 1995

Catdog 1998

Animaniacs 1993

These are all classic 90's kid shows

If you were 16 in 1990 I doubt you watched much of these shows

I was born in 1990

I still remember watching Legends of the Hidden Temple that aired 93 to 95

I grew up on all the 90's shows

I'm turning 34

I would definitely consider myself a 90's kid

Of course if you were born in December of 1999 that's a lot different

Like my brother was born in 1996 and he didn't watch a lot of 90's shows. Not really a 90's kid

But someone that is 30 today was born in 93 and that's getting close to the cut off.

[-] SeaPancake@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 year ago

98 here - I watched all of these and then some but I also watched all the 00s shows and cartoons. That being said I don't consider myself a 90s kid.

[-] remotedev@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

You're not a 90s kid if you don't know who Major Payne is

[-] Steak@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

I turned 30 last week. You are correct.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

If you were 16 in 1990 I doubt you watched much of these shows

Tell me you never went to university, without telling me you never went to university.

[-] Sludgeyy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I have two degrees from a university. I went in 2008.

If you were 16 in 1990 you would have been 21 years old when Dexter's Lab came out.

I know when I was 21 I wasn't watching the newest "kid" show on nickelodeon

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Dexter's Lab was on cartoon Network, which I absolutely was watching when I was in university and as a young adult, however I was 10 in 90, but I still saw the cartoons of the early 00s, as did a lot of my friends.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Seriously. I graduated high school in 1995 and someone who's 30 is a 90s kid? Are they 2 Legit 2 Quit I ask you?

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 year ago

They've never even seen a slap bracelet scar, let alone wore their pants backwards or slammed a stack of pogs with an aluminum slammer.

[-] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Then it sounds like you weren't a 90's kid either. You were a 90's teen, and an 80's kid

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

As I am now a parent of a 13-year-old... they're still kids.

[-] Anamana@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

True. My life began in the 2000s, got no memoies from before that.

[-] teruma@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

guess what I was born in the 90's and was 8... in the 90's!

[-] derin@lemmy.beru.co 17 points 1 year ago

The other day I slept in an off position and woke up with back pain.

Body, stop. I do not consent to this.

[-] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago

Buddy don't tell your body to stop... it just might

[-] dezmd@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I just walked up 5 stairs and on each step heard/felt a crunchy/crinkely bone sound in my left knee socket accompanied by a slight shooting pain.

I. DO. NOT. CONSENT.

/that 40's life of a 90's kid.

[-] skulkbane@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

You didn't have to kill them!

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

He did have to though. Because THE EMPIRE DID NOTHING WRONG!

[-] teddy2021@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

Not yet I'm not, and I'll be damned if I'm going alone! I'm taking you with me!

[-] sebinspace@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it

[-] brihuang95@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago
[-] theneverfox@pawb.social 3 points 1 year ago

It's untrue! It's unfair!

Star Wars Memes

11628 readers

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

==========

Other universes to visit:

!lotrmemes@midwest.social

!tenforward@lemmy.world

Separatist systems:

!prequelmemes@lemmy.world

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

!star_wars@lemmy.world

!starwars@lemmy.ml

!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world

==========

IMPORTANT

Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

==========

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

  1. This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!

  4. Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.

  5. Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).

  6. Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.
