only 90s kids will remember, or anyone younger who had parents that somehow acquired this toy
---

Yep. Used to amuse the the cat too with it's vibrations.
---

I remember the shitty adverts that made you want it less.
---

I didn't have one, but we had them as pet toys
---

I might have.
---

Never even seen one before and I was born in 95.
---

Never had it, but I've seen it before

No. And that carpet it is sitting on in the pic makes me gag.
---

Yes, of course. I loved that thing for like a few days, and then again for 20 minutes whenever I refound it in the toy piles.
---

Yep.

some wouldn't consider you a 90s kid being born then, 90s was almost over by the time you where old enough to remember things.

on topic I have very vague memories of this thing, dunno if i had one or not or just saw it at someone else's house.
---

No.
---

No but my younger brother did

tbh, the term 90s kid is stupidly vague and nebulous

yeah I was just pointing out though they likely don't remember the 90s very well at all. maybe a year or two of it. I was born in the late 80s and I don't remember much before 93

Perfect descriptor of your posts, ok?
---

Actually it wasn't me who had it; it was my cousin I lived with who was just a few years old at the time.

Well, luckily my memory is one of my good qualities and I remember plenty as far back as 97. I could probably draw an accurate floor plan of the house my family lived in until 98.

I didnt.. but a friend or someone had one..

The 90s fidget spinner
---

No, but I remember selling them when I was working at Toys "R" Us.

I was an 80s kid and I remember it existing. Your life is a lie.

I'd bet '50s, '60s, and '70s kids who are parents of '90s kids also remember.

Yes, my German shepherd chewed off the nubs.
---

Pretty sure I did, I can't remember really because it's been a while now

Isn't that the thing Homer Simpson invented in his dream?

The joke actually writes itself here.
---

Never had one, but I recognize it.
---

I never had one of those.
Did it light up when you caught it?
---

I used it for pleasure
---

No but my little brother did.
---

I've never seen that piece of shit in my life.

so you only remember 3 years at best of the 90s. I could also probably draw accurate floor plans for houses I lived in when I was really young.

but hey in no way am I bashing, its not like "90's" kids are just magically cooler than any other generation lol. the only thing I think we really got going is we got to see video gaming come from the NES up to where its at now.

omg yeah, I remember liking the way it felt in my hands when it was on
---

But that would mean you remember 7 years of the decade, which is quite a bit.

And I quite disagree about the lack of remembrance in general. It's actually hard to forget, now that such a large chunk of pop culture is derivative from what was established, or at least gained iconic popularity, in the 90s.

I was talking about another guy only remembering a couple of years of the 90s, and using that I didn't remember the first few despite being born in the 80s.

Ah, excuse me.

To clarify a bit, when I talk about remembering the 90s, I'm referring to pop culture almost entirely. TV, music, toys, and magazines.

I wouldn't remember the music or the magazines much. I was a kid, I didn't read magazines cept for nintendo power, and as far as music went I only got to hear what my mom listened to which was mostly 70s and 80s rock
