The other day, I found myself thinking about the other day. Not the day I was in mind you, the other other day. See I was thinking about the past, and then slightly later, I was thinking about how I’d thought about the past. And now I guess I’m recalling for you a moment in the past where I thought about when I thought about the past.
The point is, I do a lot of reflecting, and I quite enjoy it. Especially during the downtime, when it just feels like there’s not much going on. You can always cast your mind back to some time when there WERE things happening, and enjoy that for a while.
So come with me, won’t you? Let’s look at yesterday.
12. Hollywood Video
The Target to the Walmart that was Blockbuster.

11. Gameboy Printer
It sucked, it was compatible with like two games, and it cost the modern equivalent of about 100 bucks.
They sold a ton of ’em.

10. Old McDonalds Menus
You can just smell the cigarette smoke radiating off of this.

9. Bottle Cap Giveaways
So many fortunes were probably tossed without a look.

8. The Toy Run
There were a lot of these type of sweepstakes back in the day.
You get X number of minutes to go grab as much as you can in a store.
Every kid’s dream.

7. These Dinosaur Puppets
Where did they come from? Who knows.
But you had some.

6. Whatever This Was
If it was neon and slightly gross, you had the attention of 90’s children.

5. Spy Vs. Spy
Oh, those rascals.

4. Music Stores
I know, they still exist, but the CD era was the last time that buying physical copies of music was a necessity rather than a novelty.

3. Lite-Brite
Those little pieces would end up absolutely everywhere.

Do the kids of today still enjoy his delicacy?
