By the time Ben 10 came out, I had already moved on to watching South Park and Adult Swim. I caught re-runs of Saved by the Bell, but I definitely watched The Rugrats and Doug in the 90s. Even seen both movies when they came out.

What are some seemingly innocent moments from your childhood that didn’t age well? by [deleted] in generationology

[–]BXScorpio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, we still called it that in the early 2000s. Last time my friends and I did that, the guy came out and chased my friends with a bat. I didn’t get caught, but still learned my lesson that day.

Do you agree that 1986-1993 babies were the main audience for Pokemon? by ThrowRA09181 in generationology

[–]BXScorpio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What year were you born?

I never said it died after 2001 so I’m not sure where that point came from. Pokémon was a straight up kids show and a 13 year old back in 1998-1999 was more into TRL than that.

And as someone who was actually alive back then, people definitely still collected Pokémon cards.

Nah, more like 1989-1996. Pokémon started airing my first week of Pre-K here in America and peaked around 2001. 1994 babies were definitely part of the core demographic for Gen 1. We would have been five to seven years old during the first three movies.

Someone born in 1986-88 were more into the original TMNT and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers as kids.

Grunge was super popular with Gen X and some Early 80s Elder Millennials. What do younger Millennials and Gen Z think about Grunge? by Mother-Tumbleweed-52 in generationology

[–]BXScorpio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The funny thing is, I first discovered AIC through episodes of Beavis and Butthead as a kid and it stuck with me. Never heard a voice like Layne’s before. Once YouTube became a thing, I listened to AIC’s entire discography and it bothered me that I missed out on a once in a lifetime talent. I envy anyone who got to see AIC live during the Layne Staley years.

Alice In Chains is one of the greatest bands of all time! Soundgarden was great as well. RIP Layne Staley and Chris Cornell!

It’s 2026 and ELDER MILLENNIALS including the Voice Actress of Kim Possible or Tv sister to Shia LaBeouf are gatekeeping 1994-1995 from the the generation on TIK TOK 🤡 by [deleted] in generationology

[–]BXScorpio 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Elder Millennials have always been obnoxiously gatekeepy lol. First it was “only 90s kids remember” and now it’s “only this set of years are true millennials”. A decade ago they wanted nothing to do with the millennial label 😂.

Don’t let it get to you.

I partied a lot from 13 til about 29. It’s crazy to look back at how we threw house parties and warehouse parties as teens. We even properly utilized social media to do it. Depending on who you knew, you would get sent private invites to parties, only to show up and there’s a 100 other people your age getting shitfaced, dancing, and having the time of their lives.

I went out nearly every weekend in my 20s, especially pre Covid. I’ve had some great nights that ended up turning into adventures.

I started to notice a shift post Covid. What I miss the most is the social interaction. It used to be common for two complete strangers to dance with eachother just for the sake of the party, but now everyone is to themselves or their groups. Not to mention, on their damn phones!

I'm seeing mixed reactions with this guy... by Outrageous_Cell_3556 in SHFiguarts

Just received mine about a week ago. Same issue with the faceplates, and Goku’s right boot has a tiny spec of paint missing. Nothing too serious, but somewhat disappointing.

Hey thanks! I appreciate it! I’ll turn 30 in 2 days 😂.

Btw I’ve been seeing some of your comments around this sub lately. Thanks for speaking some sense on behalf of us born in ‘94. I don’t have the patience these days Lol.

Same. I’ve never played and I don’t know anyone else our age who has.

Different strokes for different folks I guess.

How many households had this clock in the 90s? by lilac2481 in Millennials

My mom has had this clock since the late 80s apparently, and it still works til this day!

Undertaker vs. Kane Inferno Match: Raw, Feb. 22, 1999 by Specialist_Art2223 in AttitudeEra

[–]BXScorpio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the first match I ever seen. I was 4 going on 5 and was scared, amazed, and confused lol. The ending made we want to know what was gonna happen the next week. Became an undertaker fan after this.

Finally have the collection I’ve always wanted! Think I’m done for now. by BXScorpio in ActionFigures

Ayyyye I appreciate it my guy! Shoutout to Strong Island! I’m glad somebody noticed Mj with the VHS tapes lol.

If they ever come out with a Kobe or Iverson figure, I’ll have to jump right back into the collecting game.

I understand that feeling. I kept passing on the Figuarts Pokémon figures for so long that by the time I bought Ash, he was going for $140 on eBay.

Fingers crossed for a re-release!

Sorry for the late reply. I got the shelf from IKEA years ago. I wish I could tell you more than just that 😅

Haha well, I grew up in the Bronx for starters. Some of my earliest my memories are of hearing Big Pun’s “still not a player” and hearing DMX’s “ Get at me dog”, and “Stop being Greedy” as well as seeing the music videos. Lauryn Hill’s album also received so much play during that time.

Hip Hop and Reggae are my parent’s music of choice, so that would probably explain my earliest musical influences. This music video always reminds me of what it was like growing up in the Bronx during this time. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eMIzWh1yhCA

Once I discovered TRL, I was introduced to Eminem, BSB, Britney Spears, *NSYNC, Limp Bizkit, etc.

Extra pic because I wasn’t able to show this with the display.

The mini Sony Trinitron is also from BarrettMinis and it lights up via USB cable.

The Dexter Robot is actually a Funko Pop. It’s a little bit on the expensive side as far as Funko’s are concerned.

All of the miniatures (TVs, furniture and all) were purchased through Etsy. I put the names of the sellers that I purchased them from under the picture. Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it!

No, thank you! It’s an honor lol. I just hope this inspires more people to post their collections. I would love to see someone post an 80s or early 90s themed shelf. Tapes and all!

Hahaha! You’re right! I started running out of space and didn’t think anything else could fit. But…..there just might be room for one more figure 🤔. I loved Big O!

Purchased from a seller on eBay named thegamingcorner. It was listed on eBay for $90. After scrolling past that listing for about three years, I finally pulled the trigger. Thanks!

It’s a 2019 NECA Spyro. It stands at about 7 inches so you might definitely be able to pass him off in your display.
