I don't think anyone has mentioned pagers/beepers. Maybe it's just a regional thing, but I can remember several teens and adults having them. Cell phones were the size of bricks and charged like $10 a minute back then. Remember?

So, most people opted for a pager.

Speaking of which, I recall the late-1990s, when:
A mobile phone was just a phone (I'm not sure when they started having the "Snake" game on them, was that late-1990s or early-2000s?)
Nobody under 18 had a mobile phone.

Good one Paco. I was watching Saved By the Bell last Saturday and Zack had that huge phone. Lets not forget Beverly Hills 90210 when they had the car phones. They talk about people today talking and driving back in the 90s if you had a car phone you could talk and drive.lol.
I remember the pager and beeper I never had one I didn't need I think some kids at my school had a pager or beeper. -

I purchase my first Jordan's snickers. I pay it with my own money. And did not want it anyone to step on them. I pay 90 dollars at foot Locker. And last year I bought a pair of that style for my 2 year old son. I should create me a funny meme

I remember those days of purchasing name brand clothing. I'm a female and I remember in the 90s how girls then would wear baggy clothes and I loved wearing the FUBU jerseys and I had a pair of Tommy Hilfiger pants that I paid with my own money. I brought the FUBU jerseys with my own money also.

I had the Tommy Girl perfume.
Does anybody remember a Tommy Hilfiger commercial where it's all these young people, I think they're on a beach, and they're all saying stuff like: "I'll show you mine if you show me yours" and "Show me your Tommy!" I swear this existed but haven't been able to find it. -

This has nothing to do with my childhood, but I've been thinking, the 1990s were a fitting end to the 20th century. You had the end of the Soviet Union, and you had the introduction of modern-style internet (though there had been online services prior to this).
Plus, the 1990s had many of the things typically associated with the 20th century, things that vanished in the 2000s.
This is the DuMont Television Network -
