30 Throwback Pics That’ll Unlock Core ’90s Memories
I saw one of these and immediately remembered the exact smell of a Blockbuster on a Friday night. Being a ’90s kid means your brain is basically a storage unit full of random, very specific memories that activate without warning.
These pictures will do that thing where you’re like, “Oh wow, I haven’t thought about this in 20 years,” and then suddenly you’re emotionally invested in a fruit snacks commercial again.
1. “Were you a 1-800-COLLECT or a 1-800-CALL-ATT person?”
2. “Who remembers the Book It program?”
“I don’t know about anyone but back in the day the pizza from Pizza Hut just hit differently and was so delicious!
I remember my siblings and I use to trick our mother by convincing her that we read this book or that book just so she’d sign the paper so we could a little free pizza. We were poor growing up and didn’t eat out so it was a luxury!
Also my elementary school each class had a Corduroy Teddy Bear if you read the book you got to take it home with you for the week.
Great times!”
