We feel nostalgia when we think about the 90s and we tend to forget the bad sides... and there were a lot.

1.
You HAD to go to the video store when you felt like watching something. And if someone else was already watching it- tough luck, you couldn't watch the same thing cause you had to physically have the tape.
2.
Having to rewind the entire film on VHS before being able to watch it.
3.
The feeling of helplessness when the tape was irreparably damaged.
4.
Getting cut off the internet when someone wanted to make a phone call.
5.
Flipping through this CD case just to find that one song on that one album.
6.
And if you wanted to make your playlist you spend hours crafting the perfect mix CD.
7.
You were feeling heartbroken when you saw this, cause the data was lost.
8.
Memorizing your friends numbers and having to arrange exactly what time you’d call them. They had to be home for you to talk to them.
9.
And in the house could always be listening in on your calls.
10.
You got your songs by sitting quietly around a radio and recording the sounds. If you sneezed- it was in the song forever.
11.
Googling for lyrics? Forget it! You had to manually write out the lyrics to a song by playing it over and over again.
12.
If you had a question you had to ask someone or read a book, no Google. And if no one had the answer- you had to let it go.
13.
It you took a photo you had to get the film developed to know if it turned out right.
14.
And getting the film developed wasn't a pleasant thing- it took a long time.
15.
You had to use a TV Guide to know what's on TV, and highlight what you were going to watch before others beat you to it.
16.
The disappointment of seeing this screen- it's coded!
17.
Getting up at a specific time to catch your favorite show. If you missed you had to wait for a rerun.
18.
Remember testing your patience when you had to type using this keyboard? Typing “hello” took thirteen clicks. Thirteen!
