i remember that, im in '91 - I liked Sue best! - haha! - and how the one that never talked used to be allwasy in the loft etc.

I liked sooty and Sweep, I think they shoudl bring it back.

[Retroman]

Personally I don't think any people born in the 1990's deserve the title of a true 90's kid. You probably don't remember much/anything at all from the first three years of your life, so that's half of the 1990's over for you already =] some people may even remember less.

I was three years old when 1990 arrived, and im not saying this just because I fit into this category...but people born from 1985-1987 would have been the only people able to appreciate the whole 1990's decade as kids.

For those of you born in 1990 - 1994, by the time you were old enough to remember anything properly, a large percentage of the 1990's were over. Which I don't think warrants you the title of a "90's child" im afraid. Not a proper one at least.

[Scarlett.]

I was born in 1990
and I appreciate the decade
I rerember the words to Fresh Prince
I loved Live and Kicking "011 11 10 50 10 10" and SM:TV Live (I think its the best)
I reremer Digimon and Pokemon
I rerember Pogs

[SairBabi92]

I was born in 1992 and i remember all those things. Its funny how i read nearly all of that and laughed to myself. Brings back good memories!

[Callum]

Born in 1994, and mostly remember all of that.

Brings back memories mind.. Lmao, most of it makes me laugh!

[newcastlefan]

I was born in 1991 and i remember everything

[Benji]

me too...

[Sarah.]

I was born in 91, they bring back lots of memories, a lot of them apply to me!

[Captain.Remy]

It was old good time, when young people were passionated and had some awesome hobbies like Pokemon and stuff, where we were all innocent. Nowadays young people are bored really quickly, our societies change, it's sad for them.

[Bells]

I consider myself to be a 90s child. And it was such a great time to grow up in - not that I'm biased or anything, but I wouldn't change a thing. My brother was born in 2002, and I still think that he sponges off most of the stuff the 90s kids got first.

[Retroman]

It's all well and good claiming you remember things...
But if you were born in 1990 - 1994 for example, and certain books/tv shows/crazes/events happened between 1990-1994 then you WEREN'T there. Or you were TOO YOUNG to remember.

You just witnessed the aftermath, or the repeats of the tv show etc.

I could have been born in 2000, but still remember all of these things if I watched specific channels/downloads.

So yea, coming along several years into the 90's and claiming you remember everything doesn't make you a 90's child. Because you weren't there when half of the things actually happened, like I said..you just saw the aftermath/repeats/ whatever happened after 1994 or whichever year.

It's the equivalent of coming along in the year 3000 and saying you're a 90's child because you remember all the things from the 90's because you researched them/watched them on tele/online. You still weren't there.

Being there for half of it, or even three quarters of it...isn't quite good enough in my opinion. Some of you would have been 5-9 years old when the year 2000 came around, so your childhood went well into the 2000's =]

By logic, id say that makes most of the people here either 2000 children, or half 90's children at best.

[Scarlett.]

Stop being selfish :p I am a 90's child coz I can rerember everything WHEN it was happening

Agreed.

My earliest memory of the 90's is 1991. Would you consider me to be a child of the 90's?

[Retroman]

Well I think we have to go off percentages here...
If you remember everything from 1990 - 2000 then you'd be 100% a 90's child.

And you knock 10% off for each year you don't remember.

So I guess that would make you 90% a 90's child =]

Anyone who's 50% or under isn't worth noting.
Those who are 60% - 80% have a decent knowledge, but aren't quite worthy of being a full on 90's child.

90% or above I think would be a good reflection of a 90's child.
Most things going on in 1990 would have still been going on in 1991 anyway.

[Scarlett.]

I can rerember from 1992 so that would make me 80%

Are.You.For.Real.?

This was supposed to be a good, funny thread for people to have a laugh at .... and you've turned it into ''you are 30% a 90s child'' ... ahhhh, clearly everyone born in the 90s is a ''90s child'' ... you're an ''80s child'' ... everything doesn't have to be a competition so leave us to remenice (sp?) on pogs and pokemon which btw I loathe.

[Captain.Remy]

It's a funny place so please keep it up ! It's full of great memories here ! :bouncy:

Nope...
Because we're going off what you can remember, not when you were born.

So that would make me 0% an 80's child, because as far as im aware...
I don't remember anything from the 80's.

I only turned this into what it is, because I get tired of little kids coming along claiming they're 90's children because they read a Goosebumps book and watched a repeat of The Sooty show.

If this was a "lets remember things from the 90's topic" then fine =] as it's a "who's a 90's kid" it's a little different.

KK I get it.

So you're a 100% 90's kid, kk.

There was someone on here who was born in 1995 and claimed to be a 90's child. But their first memory would have been in 1999, so I don't think they should be given that lable at all. More of a 00s child I'd say...

Well exactly...
I mean, I was born in 1987 and I wouldn't dream of telling anyone im an 80's kid just because I remembered a couple of pieces of information from the 1980's and was born in that decade.

In ten years or more, anyone who isn't a 90's kid will be able to say they're a true 00's kid =] so everyone will have their moment. And everyone has a decade they lived all the way through at a young age.

[Nicola]

I was born in 1982 but remember a lot of the stuff from when I was growing up. I always watched Live and Kicking, and the Saturday Night thing was my Saturday with the family spot on (now it's X Factor, Ant and Dec and Casualty that rule my Saturday nights!) And I owned a Tamagotchi and got addicted to the whole thing.

I tend to view myself as an 80's kid from when I was born even though I have more memories of the 90's - I was 8 in 1990, 13 in 1995 and 17 in 1999 so I was more of a kid in the early 90's.

Ah yes, very clever...the typing of one word per line to create a patronising effect, just wonderful. Doesn't help you win an argument though =]

This topic isn't "were you born in the 90's?" it's purely about people who remember everything from the 90's in their childhood. Otherwise you're claiming someone born in 1999 on New years Eve at 11:59PM is also a 90's child who remembers all those things? I think not.

You're completely confusing the meaning of a 90's child.
Like I said, it has nothing to do with what decade you were born in. It's to do with the many things that went on in the 1990's and what you remember of them in your childhood.

People born in lets say, 1992, who's long term memory didn't kick in for years after that...can't remember everything from the 90's, it's as simple as that.

And there was no patronising, I was calling them little kids because of their age. Afterall, I was a little kid too once, so am I patronising myself? I was calling them little kids, because they were quite literally little kids back then =] so please don't take what I say out of context for the sake of argument, it's rather immature.

It doesn't effect me nor become a big deal for me either...
You're the one who sounds like they're making a big deal out of something.

You have no basis to argue on if you you're thinking the definition of a 80's/90's child is based on what decade they were born in. You're just completely ignoring what the topic actually is...

This is about how much people remember.
If you remember all of the 90's in your childhood, you'd obviously be a 90's child. If you don't remember it all, then you're only a certain percentage.

Ten years in one decade.
One year = 10%
Ten years = 100%
And everything inbetween.

Id hardly call that made up.

[Scarlett.]

For gods sake some people on here cant help making arguements :mad:

[Retroman]

In short...
If you're under a certain percentage, then you'd be a 00's child =]
That's the whole point in the percentages.

People who will spend most of their childhood in the 00's and remember everything from that decade, and don't remember as much from the 90's, can't enter a topic claiming that they're 90's children.

It's just that simple.

We're talking about rememberance, the title of "90's child" and decades here.
Not "when were you born?"

I was three years old when 1990 arrived, and Im not saying this just because I fit into this category...but people born from 1985-1987 would have been the only people able to appreciate the whole 1990's decade as kids.

For those of you born in 1990 - 1994, by the time you were old enough to remember anything properly, a large percentage of the 1990's were over. Which I don't think warrants you the title of a "90's child" Im afraid. Not a proper one at least.

what are you on about,I remember everything on that list and I was born in 1990.

[Bells]

I think it depends on your memory span as well. Because I was born in 1990 and I remember loads too.

[cujo-man]

All I know is I remember alot of those things.

Anyway who cares. Who is actually to judge what kind of childhood anyone had?

[Retroman]

Lol like I said...the list doesn't matter.
If your long term memory kicked in when it was 1994 [you were four years old.] then you weren't there to remember the originals from 1990-1994 =] the original events/tv shows etc from those years.

You just grew up seeing the last half of the series, or the repeats, or the end of the craze etc.

Which is just the same as someone born in 2000 saying they're a 90's child because they bought some pogs off ebay and watched a repeat of the Sooty Show on youtube. Doesn't mean you were there to witness these things when they came about.

You were there to witness possibly 1994-2000 and all the things that went on in those years. Which isn't the whole 90's now is it?

Which is why you're not a full 100% 90's kid, just someone who was born in the 90's who remembers some things.

We don't have to argue about this...
Just acknowledge the fact that if you don't remember the entire 90's you're not a full 100% 90's kid, and possibly a 00's kid then get over it =] then continue to discuss all the lovely things you remember.

Or are you having negative reactions because you feel you're being told you weren't part of the group who witnessed the entire 90's? lol. Nothing can be done about it, so don't get so offended.

So, you might not have been there at the start of BB but you can still consider yourself a fan!

[supernoodles!]

ya know i cant beleive theres actually an argument over this,its pathetic.For once I think we should just keep our opinions to ourselves,if you class your self as a 90`s kid ie,you remember stuff on the list-well then a 90`s kid you shall be

Haha I know, it's funny that this has somehow been debated ... seriously, it was supposed to be some light hearted fun and not for somebody to bombard us with stats and percentages that mean jack .... this is why I was unable to read your response Retroman ... sorry but we'd keep going around in circuls and you seem to think you're right so I'm not planning on wasting more time.

But yeah, pogs!! :bigsmile:

[supernoodles!]

I just posted it becuase I thought it would be interesting for those members who remember any of the things on the list.I remember all of them,pogs ruled,diddnt you get slammers which were like plastic pogs and thicker than the others lol.My fave pogs were this ones with hollograms on which my mam bought me lol.I also got givven one of my cousin with a snake on which I thought was very kind at the time lol.bless my 6 year old self.:joker:

[Scarlett.]

I agree. I think this maybe got slightly out of hand.

[Wasted]

Yeah, I don't see how this turned into a debate. If most of your childhood was in the 90s and you have early memories that you are fond of from that decade then obviously you're a 90's child, or at least I think that's most of our interpretations are of what a 90s child is. I don't see how facts and figures come into it! :tongue:

[supernoodles!]

exactly,im not going to be a '00 child coz I was like 10-11 and my childhood was like 90% in the 90s!We dont need people telling us oh YOUR not a 90`s child.
But anyhow.....I remeber chums lol.And when they used to take this piss out of the corrs going on about how beautiful they thought they were lol.

[Retroman]

Yes well, im an 80's child apparently...
Because I was born in 1987 and remember nothing of my childhood in the 1980's.

Nobodies arguing IF anyone's a 90's child, just that some are more than others =]

Anyhow, Chums was quite good.
I liked how they did the whole Cat and Dec thing, will they? won't they? etc.
It was just the Racheal and Ross situation taken to the extreme.

^_^

[supernoodles!]

well wouldnt that make you a 90`s child seeing as you were aged 3-13 during the 90s

Well of course...

Are you going round the twist?

Hmm, all this is making me want to go and watch the original Power Rangers! and discover that the green ranger TURNED INTO THE WHITE RANGER! WTF!?!??!?!?!?!?!??????????????????? *dies*

"Down at the bottom of the garden,
Among the birds and the bees,
A little lot of little people,
They call the Poddington Peas.

There's Creepy, Black Eye Pea and Dumpy.
Keep it a secret now please.
There's Zippy, Happy and there's Sweepy.
And all the Poddington Peas!

The Poddington Peas!"

Woahhh ^_^ I used to think that thing was amazing. Little did I know it was a 10 inch toy being animated.

I think i'll buy one off ebay lol.

I remember the Poddington peas...
They were the vegetable version of the smurfs.

[Captain.Remy]

I luved it, thanks Retro !!! :colour:

[Bells]

I never knew that Megazord was a 10 inch toy being animated! :shocked: I used to think that was ace, and then recently thought it was done purely on the computer, which is still pretty cool.
But that amazement has now gone... :bored:

[Matt10k]

lol at some of the 'elitism' surrounding being a '90's child' in this thread!!

e.g: 'you're not a 90's child if...' Erm, you're a fetus?! Sorry, I think I must just be getting old because if you are born in the 90's you still seem like a child to me!!

I take it none of you remember the 80's then?!

[Corkie]

1993 was the year I was born and I know and love all of these things.
Gladitors was amazing :spin2:
