Remember the good old '90s? Who doesn't?!

Anyone would tell you the '90s is arguably the best decade ever. It's really easy to see why everyone, especially those old enough to have lived through them, loves the '90s. The decade saw an incredible rise in new technologies and unexpected social changes.

Back then, there was enough technology to make life easier but not enough to consume your daily life. Face-to-face interactions were still a thing.

Couples enjoyed each other's company without pausing to check their smartphone because smartphones didn't exist. The stock market boomed.

Need I say more, y'all!?

Think of the 90s, and you will see happy memories in your head, from experiencing life before technology took over to watching stars like Will Smith, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jay-Z, and Snoop Dogg in their youth. There is so much to reminisce about from the '90s.

It's not surprising that several online communities today are dedicated to keeping the memories from that era alive. One such community is the Flashback 90s – a Facebook page celebrating all the ups and downs of the '90s.

We've brought you a collection of some of the best memes they shared. Dive in and enjoy!

In Summary...

The brains behind the Flashback 90s' Facebook page, Danny, said he started the page to share his childhood memories from that decade.

Unsurprisingly, many others shared his sentiments, and the page became a social media project for people nostalgic about the '90s to reminisce about the good old days. There's no denying the fact that the '90s was a great decade.

Some people may argue otherwise, but then they would be wrong anyway! Although the '90s had its fair share of issues, everyone seemed more open and relaxed.

While the '90s are gone, and we can't have those years back, perhaps we can try to rekindle some of its brilliance in our daily lives, starting with resisting the temptation to reach for our phones the next time we're out for drinks with our friends.
