Video tapes and VCRs.

I can't even count how many times I've broken or smudged a DVD so much it doesn't work anymore... Oh well, Blu-Ray discs are a little bit less fragile...

Who had those Tamagotchi things as a kid? The little handheld virtual pets? I was terrible at caring for them, but I had a bunch of them. I had an orange one that I would carry around with me all of the time.

Oh god. How about Furby?! I had two when I was about nine, and both of them broke within a week. Yet, people were insane about getting them. Such a terrible toy. XD

At the other side of the world, most likely. ;U; I still have my Barbies but they all look like crackwhores now LOL! And Polly Pockets! Oh my god, I still have some of mine too! I remember getting that big mansion-like one complete with a garage and a small car. I'd mess around with it for hooouuurs! xD

I remember me and my friends would fawn over them and their songs back in grade school. We'd fight about who amongst us were Baby Spice, Posh Spice, Sporty Spice, etc.. xD Fun times~

Although I do remember the first cassette tape--PFFT CASSETTE--I got was of the Backstreet Boys. My uncle got it for me. And I fangirled over Nick Carter hurr. >U>; I was a sucker for his hair and pretty boy-ness.

BEANIE BABIES! I used to have entire boxes filled with those! XD Remember when McDonalds had their Beanie Baby promotions? My family would buy Happy Meals just for the Beanie Babies. That also reminds me of the "solid gold Pokemon cards" that Burger King had for a while... I never got any, but some of my friends still have theirs.

Did anybody have....BEANIE BABIES!? Oh good lord...

Spice girls. <3<3
I watched an old tape of them last week. I cried when Geri left. ;.;
I miss 2001.

Aww, when I was in third grade all of my friends and I loved them. Remember the goofy Spice World movie?

Who else used to watch the old Sonic and Mario cartoons every morning? The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog was ridiculous, but fun; I remember the little "Sonic Sez" sessions at the end of each episode. I don't recall as much from the Mario Super Show, though... :sadshoe:

How about the... questionable live action Super Mario Bros. movie?

EditEdit: I hated my Furby! I used to shove it in the wardrobe. I one threw it out of my window (2nd story up) onto the concrete and it didn't break. Bah xD

Edit: And S Club 7 adn Steps-oh I wish Steps would get back together for one last show...

(Also, damn, I feel old... I was a teenager when the Spice Girls were big news.)

BEANIE BABIES! I used to have entire boxes filled with those! XD Remember when McDonalds had their Beanie Baby promotions? My family would buy Happy Meals just for the Beanie Babies.

It was sparkly and really nice :D I have one where you can move Polly around the place with a magnet or whatever, but the only fun part about it was moving her back and forth over and over again XD. I also have countless other sets. Nii wrote: I remember me and my friends would fawn over them and their songs back in grade school.

Ahh cassettes, I remember those...barely XD Oh yeah, and I had a few of those Spice Girl dolls. I had Sporty, Posh, and Baby. Baby had some weird blue suit on. She was a "special edition" or something like that. I really wanted to get Ginger. After she left the group, that doll was extremely rare to find. Oh, and I had a huge crush on Nick Carter(and his brother Aaron Carter is shot) as well. He was definitely the best looking out of them all. I felt sorry for Howie.

I never really took good care of mine, but I got a newer one a few years back and I still never took great care of it XD I still have my Furby too. Those things were terrible. Mine's kinda ugly and I hate how it's just standing across from my bed, staring at me. I remember I got it for Christmas when I was 10 and I played with it for about 5 minutes and that was it. Colossal waste of money... Did anybody have....BEANIE BABIES!? Oh good lord...

TAMAGOTCHI! I don't know where mine is now, but I used to fiddle with it all the time when I was younger. I brought it with me everywhere, even to classes, and constantly check whether it pooped or not. My teachers were furious! x'D I remember seeing my little sister with a Tamagotchi... kit of some sort a few years back. Times really have changed.

I never got any, but some of my friends still have theirs. I have them in my closet and some under my bed. I wasn't huge on collecting them, but I liked getting them. My mom still has hers in her closet somewhere. I had friends who were really into collecting them; it was serious business XD I liked to sleep with some of mine and I always wanted to rip the tags off, but my sister and mom didn't want me to because it would be worth more money. Now they're worthless. Glad I didn't fork out huge bucks for those things... But I remember getting those in Happy Meals too!! I got the lobster most of the time and I got the inchworm once. I wasn't really big on Pokemon, but I remember a friend of mine and I found a shit ton of Pokemon cards scattered throughout our neighborhood for some reason. We spent a few days going around and finding them. I don't remember what we did with them, but I think I gave them to her because she or her sister liked Pokemon...

Hahaha, everyone in my school had Tamagotchis when I was in Fourth Class. You'd be out on yard and these complete strangers would come up to you and ask if your Tamagotchis could meet each other, or even get married. You'd have your babies' spouses all planned out the minute they were born, it was so funny. Half the Tamagotchis in school were related to each other somehow. Is it sad that I still have a Tamagotchi? XD I'm sort of nearly 15 lmao.

While I'm guilty of buying one or two of those (consignment shop only), I couldn't believe some fool out there was willing to pay $3500 (read: $3500, and this was back in 1997-1998) for one of the original monkeys. That, and I don't miss all the counterfeiting. Then again, I suppose it taught a lesson or two to those folks willing to easily part with so much dough.

Oh God, Sky Dancers. XD I didn't care THAT much about the toys, but there was a cartoon based off 'em that I was utterly obsessed with when I was, like, 5. In retrospect it was so bad it was good. As for Furbies, I had one when I was, like, 7. My dog got a hold of it WHILE IT WAS ON, and the Furby was all "ME NO LIKE! D:" and we were all laughing way too hard to do anything about it. And I still have a few Beanie Babies lying around, I think... Also, if really early adolescence counts as young, Bonus Stage. I'm still completely and utterly obsessed with it, despite the fact that it ended when I was 13. XD

I was on the other end of that craze! I miss... The days when there were more Rocky Rococo locations in my area. There's still one in my state, so I'm not completely deprived--I must take my next girlfriend there at least once--but it's at least 30 minutes away by car. Personally, I am convinced that it's nearly impossible to find better pizza than theirs...and some of their advertisements are hilarious! Reasonable prices. Kween has said this before, but it bears repeating. Just ten years ago, a 20-ounce bottle of Coke cost 94 cents. The price has jumped by more than 50% since then. As for before I was born...it blows the mind what one dollar used to buy. Thanks a lot, Roosevelt. Being able to perform near-perfect splits sideways and front-to-back as well as side kicks almost straight up. The days when my NES worked properly. Nowadays it's so temperamental... The Simpsons arcade game. I must have spent a small fortune playing that side-scrolling beat-em-up. The original Game Boy--that clunky gray/white monochrome monstrosity that stole my gaming heart. It's not much now, but it beat the pants off those Tiger hand-held games. All those Nintendo-based cartoons! My brother and I used to get up super early just to watch Captain N and the Video Game Masters. Garfield (particularly the holiday specials), X-Men, The Tick, and though I'm embarrassed to admit it...Ronin Warriors. I don't particularly miss this, but...does anyone remember the commercials for Magic Potty Baby?

They made a cartoon and ruined the pets, and then I think they made little playsets almost like Polly Pockets, I had one with cats. Oh dear lord, those new ones are so FUGLY. They don't even look like animals. Same with My Little Ponies. WTF is up with those baby ponies?!

Sesame Street, before it was Commercialise Me Elmo and when they had the cute little animations and the really trippy 70s inspired stuff. I grew up on that stuff when I was little (early-mid 80s), and I still remember bits and pieces. Having kids of my own, though, I've watched it lately, and, well, it's crap. There's more of the real-time stuff and less of the nifty little animation things and more segments that go on and on and on. It was way more random, seemed partially acid-inspired, and was just a lot more fun when I was a kid. Also, to the people remembering Furbys... has anyone else here read Lunar Park by Bret Easton Ellis? I was always kind of freaked out by Furbys, but after reading that, I am scared shitless. Seriously-- I saw one in an op-shop a few months back and I jumped. :/ (Also, damn, I feel old... I was a teenager when the Spice Girls were big news.)

All the wonderful things your parents said would happen. Thinking being an adult would be fun. Music that wasn't about killing people, bitches, sex, money, or drugs. Being praised for all the small things. Waking up each morning and having a conversation with your parents while eating sugary cereal. Being able to climb trees without looking like a retard. Hot lava that magically appeared on the ground, unless it was a dark tile.
