1998 Toy R Us Christmas Book
- Thread starter Louisville Slugz
- Start date
I loved going to Toys R Us and shopping for my kids for Christmas. I hate that experience is gone now.
You’re forgetting also being able to bump your music cd’s at the same time as playing games. With Wipeout (one of my favorite racing franchises) it was one of the first games you could load the game, take the disc out, and put in your music vid to play while playing the game. In 95 that shyt was mind blowing! I discovered it by accident because my sister took the game out as a joke while I was playing but it kept running. I popped in a vid just to see and that bytch stared bumpin while I raced
We had 1 of 2 stores nationwide open but wife shot it down because it was the middle of the pandemic , I just want my children to never grow up and be toys r us kids like I was

Some background music to hide the sound of me having allergies
Lowkey this song was one of Luda's best (that whole album slaps)
With that said, I remember that book, it was around my oldest son's birthday
I think I got him Mario Kart and the LOZ:OOTLord_nikon

the 90s were the perfect bridge between modern society and everything that came before the 90's, right in the sweet spot
alot of the shyt that gets referenced or make people feel nostalgic comes from the 90s because it was a boom period for everything - movies, tv shows, gaming, etc.
90's birthed alot of GOAT tier shyt
the 90s was teeming with creativity and fukkery,
the shyt just felt magical, not because I was a kid either. all the dopamine bursts you get from tik tok, and the internet in general... well we got that from being outside around actual people in the arcades, or out in the neighborhood....shyt even school was lit as fukk. human interaction was so much more chill and open, their wasnt all this tension, and going on witch hunts and shytty people actually got shamed and checked on the spot. Society wasnt the powder keg it is now. People, for the most part, were perfectly contempt going about their lives without much of a problem. The shyt was just...

It’s interesting how diverse advertising has become. All the kids in that book are white. Now, you’d see at least one curly haired light skinned black kid.
