The 90's

Just a little something a friend sent me in an email-- I thought it was pretty cool ^_^


If you are under the age of 12... you really have no business reading this...

Why? Well, just because you were born in '97 doesn't mean you're a 90's kid.

It's not like you could remember the original Simpsons or anything. I am sorry but three conscious years of the 90's just wont cut it.

Now, with that said...

You're a 90's kid if:
