Your a 90's kid if...

I usually substitute another word for brown noser, however it's inappropriate to these forums.

I remember my parents would not let me see taht movie for the longest time until one day i just found it and was like fail

In the late 1990's you were still using Packard Bell computers. [ NOTE this is NOT the same company as Hewlett Packard. They are totally different companies]. They were absolute monstrosities. They were huge. I think that women would have struggled to carry them. I could barely carry the massive deep TV style monitor or the huge motherboard.

I had a Packard Bell that in 1999 had 10 GB of HDD and 96 MB [!] of slow DDR RAM. It had windows 98 on it. Maybe 95. It was a dreadful computer. It was also very hard to open up to put in more RAM. Packard Bells had this weird double screw double panel motherboard construction.

I still had it lying around a few years ago. I got it out from a cupboard and plugged it in and whacked puppy linux on it which worked albeit slowly.

Anyway here is a fantastic piece of Packard Bell propaganda. After watching it you will be convinced that Packard Bells are great and have been a central part of US IT advancement ...

I had a Gateway computer, with a 133MHz processor. Remarkably it handled the monstrous demands of newer games with recommended speeds of up to a whopping 400 Mhz.

I still remember the Commadore 64.  My first computer, I used it as a paper weight.

Anyone who liked Packard Bells is beyond my understanding. Such people fall into the category of another 1990's mystery:

dude those boxes look terrible lol

WOW that song really? omg i remember that show too and when i was a kid i remember actually getting scared of aliens to this.

Actually an interesting aspect of the X-Files theme music is that the video above is an abbreviated version.The full version goes for 5 minutes and has a voiceover saying "do you really want to know" in a whisper. That full version sounds more "poppy" and isn't scary or unsettling at all.

Some people think we are the aliens, perhaps an episode from the files.

X-Files were awesome, I have the last few seasons on Disk but have yet to watch them

What are you waiting for?

Dont even know what the x files are but i remember the song lol just one of those shows for me.

Whereas fresh prince of bel air i knew the song knew the syle and knew the characters and the show of course that was when i was a kid now i forgot lol

You're a 90s kid if you were born in the 90s.

for the free time, I'd probably begin at a very early season at this point, also currently catching up on "The Wire" after that I will try!!

You're a 90's kid if you enjoy listening to unplugged Grunge concerts, like the MTV (when the M stood for music instead of money) sponsored NY concerts of Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Alice In Chains, and the like.

The X-files, LOL!

I remember recently I was sitting around with my friends wathcing TV, that show came on. Just to be a smart alek, I said "Oh! I remember this episode! This is the one where they figure out EVERYTHING! JFK, Area 51, Bigfoot, the Loch Ness monster. Everything!"

One teenage kid says "Really!? Wow! I've never seen this before!"

So we watched it, as it gets toward the end, I see him sitting on the edge of the couch, waiting for the climax.

Then the show ends, he says "But....I don't get it. They didn't solve anything!"

We were like "Of course not! This is the X-Files! They never solve anything on this show!" And he says "Oh..."

Then I say "The X-Files?? Oh, I'm sorry! I thought we were watching Scooby Doo! Shag and Scoob woulda cracked that case!"

Perfect. You made all my day with this statement. How haven't I thought of it before? simple, brief and true... wow. (im not being ironic btw).
