We all hear our parents
and uncles and aunts talking about how their era used to be. Whether it was the
capability of being able to buy sweets and Gol-gapas
at 10paise or talks of numerous fashion styles from their generation making a
comeback, it sure seems like they are very proud of where they come from. There
are decades of difference between their generation and ours, but one thing that
no parent or uncle can come anywhere close to is being a cool 90’s kid is!
The best part about our
time was the fact that Television had just made its presence felt and hence
there were tons of “cool” funny shows and superhero series being made into
cartoons and shows. These shows, though were telecasted only on weekends, the
happiness one derived from watching Shaktimaan
do the super spin was just unimaginable! And oh, what delight did He-man’s
sword skills bring!
Whether it was amusing
over the Ninja Turtles or learning to be the cool kids from the Swat Kats or
simply laughing over Dexter and Dee Dee’s mischief; just talking about these
things brings a smile on our faces. And oh, remember the Powerpuff Girls’ theme
song? I still do!
Our summers were never
complete without us saving the little money we would get and splurging on those
ice popsicles; oh, those colorful juicy sticks of pure joy! Or buying the
latest sketch pen set and glitter pens to show who the boss in the class is.
There are tons of other
things that make us the “cool kid”, but there is nothing better than being from
the 90’s!
