ah yes, the good o’ days… what ever happened to them?
Great song, first list I have ever enjoyed looking over. Probably because this list holds similar interests, 90′s, yeah. I miss pogs. How does a guilty first kiss work?
I thought digimon, inspector gadget and the ninja turtles were the best, but I have a penis.
@someguy4398 - Sometimes I’m not sure what happened, but generally I think puberty happened.
@Pinjas - My first kiss was definitely a guilty one….the guy was way older than me…like over 18 older. Gah. Generalizing…cartoons in general used to be better. What kind of absolute crap do they have on tv these days? I would probably still watch cartoons if they weren’t so dumb, lol.
@crazy2love - well you see, puberty could indeed affect our perspective on these things, but it cannot the cartoons themselves
@crazy2love - I think that is what makes you less of a child. When you were a child, there was no such thing as a dumb cartoon, they all seem to use similar wacky antics and stupid sound effects.
OMG, I feel soooo old now. I can’t do any of those things anymore
Anyway, I read you’re a pagan from another blog, and I just had to say, well met youngin’. I’ve been one for years now.
Peace.
