Spin: "90's Problems" Meme

[Anothergirl]

The "I bought this and it's trash" struggle was real.

*spent 14.99 on Nastradamus and TRIED to make herself like it bc she paid for it*

i made myself like many a shytty CD because i refused to waste the $12-$14. that's probably the lowkey best thing to come from technology. the ability to buy TRACKS.

Born in the early 90's FTW

Having the soundtrack to your youth/teenage years being rubbish from the 00s "FTL", you mean.

My baby brother was born in 95.

To this day he doesn't believe me when I say I had to tape songs from the radio.

Even worse, my g-daughter is 7. I tell her that there was no internet when I was in first grade and she looks at me wide eyed like "bu bu but how...."

remember tryna tape a song off the radio ...and the DJ would keep saying it's coming up ...but they'd take forever? the min you got distracted they'd start playing it and you'd run over and hit record but still end up missing the first few seconds of the song.

This thread is too real, taping tv shows, setting the VCR and someone changed the channel.
Recording songs off radio the struggle was real

I remember dubbing the songs off the radio and writing them down so I can learn the lyrics
I remember my middle school boyfriend having his sister call to speak to me because my dad would answer the phone
I remember losing my mind when super mario came out on super nintendo and it took 4 family members to beat the game
I remember buying Kodak disposable cameras with the flash
I remember staying up late and using 3 way to talk to everyone

Sticking notebook paper in your cassette tapes to make them dub worthy
