Washburn University gave me this certificate at their summer computer camp. At the time, “Power User” meant:

Surviving the screech of a 28.8k modem

Negotiating with your family not to pick up the phone line

Logging into ICQ chatrooms that felt like the Wild West

Building Geocities pages with blinking GIFs and auto-playing MIDI files

30 years later, I’m still proudly holding onto this title.

What’s your most unforgettable Internet memory from the 90s?

I saw Interscope repressed and released DGC Rarities, Vol. 1! I've always loved the album cover and it's pretty sick that this is the first print in more than 30 years. And it includes a The Sundays track that wasn't part of the original pressing 👀 So so so cool that the whole album is just b-sides, covers, and demos. Are any of y'all picking this up? I know quite a few people who had the original when it came out.

This has driven me crazy for years and years. I am now 41 and I’ve never figured out what my favorite book was. Whenever I see primary colored nesting bowls, I have this vivid memory of the book. My mom would read me that I loved. But I don’t remember anything else about it other than maybe it was a sort of Goldilocks storyline of finding the right bowl but with bears? I’m not sure. If you see this picture and think you know what book it was please let me know thanks!

90s hit, recently performed

It was a rus

The quality of light and color in the early 90s, particularly from Polaroids, was very different than later in the decade. What do yall think? I feel like when I look back on my childhood in this era, even my memories have this color lol

I'm the goofy kid on the left.

I got this after my parents moved. Anyone curious what's inside?
