Millennial, here (1988) and this is just my early-to-mid teen years, which I consider part of my childhood.
Showed the meme to my GF who born in 1995 and she couldn’t even relate to half of this starter pack. Her era was Wii and DS, not GBA and PS2. Her first phone was an iPhone.
This looks like born in 95 with an older brother starter pack…
True, haha. I’m the oldest and my youngest sibling was also born in 1995. She had all the things that 90s kids had, thanks to hand-me-downs. Cassette Walkmans, N64, Windows 95, flip phones with black and white screens + no camera, etc.
She got started late smh we were all playing GBA on the bus back in the day.
That’s a fair assessment. She is the youngest and her asshole siblings would never let her use their game consoles. She didn’t get her own until age 10.
But to be even more fair, I didn’t get my first console (N64) until I was 9. Some kids were lucky enough to have parents willing to buy them expensive electronics at a younger age. Neither of us were that lucky/spoiled. But my neighbor who was one year younger than me had a SNES and a PC. I didn’t get my own PC until 2004. Until then everyone except my dad had to share the living room computer, and it had the shittiest GPU in the world—GeForce4 MX 4000—which was basically a scam card. But it was good enough to run Driver and Spider-Man (the one based on the first Tobey film), so it was good enough for me. Half-Life 2 was out of the question, though.
I was born in 96. My first console generation was PSX and GBC, followed by GBA and PS2. I think your gf just wasn’t in to gaming when she was little.
Weird, I’m only two years older than here and this image fits me perfectly. I had every version of gameboy, a GameCube, n64, I played the SHIT out of oblivion, and my back hurts.
I’d like to be asked consent when my picture is posted online.
Had a similar phone, my gameboy was a couple of gens older, and I never played pokemon… But I remember when my friends got their ps2s and I listened to both albums on my commute yesterday… Wtf happened? 2005 was yesterday!
Where’s the mini-skirt made of snake skin? And who’s the other guy that’s singing in Van Halen? When did reality become TV? Whatever happened to sitcoms, game shows (on the radio?)
Really fucked up thing is, that song came out in 2004, and is about a woman remembering 1985, like we’re remembering 2005… It’s already been a year more for us than her.
Time spares no one, friend. Howl in defiance with me for just a few moments more.

GRAB YOUR SWORD, AND FIGHT THE HORDE! UNCLE LOTHAR WANTS YOU!
Needs more of Bungies Halo.
For extra fun: sing System of a Down in public and see who becomes confused and/or aroused.
My alarm used to be Chop Suey.
The hard part was converting then getting the cable to upload AMR files to my phone. Made me feel

I feel seen/attacked.
Anybody remember the SHREK KETCHUP lolol
Replace a PlayStation 2 with a early 2000’s computer and everything checks out for me.
Yeah this was pretty much all the things
2005 was lit! 2006 was probably one of the best years of my life, despite being relatively broke most of the time.
There’s no way I’m older than you. You can’t do this to me!
Half Life 2 where are yoooouuuuu. And I’m so sooorry.
