6 Things From the 90s That You Will Never See Again In Your Lifetime

Business Insider / Top On Day

The 90s were honestly a pretty weird time for us all. There was a lot that happened that kind of hit us all of a sudden and we just had to deal with it.

Sure, we got the internet (which is fun) and there was that whole Y2K panic (we probably won't freak out like that ever again), but what about the day-to-day things that were such a big part of our lives?

Turns out, not everything is forever so we better enjoy them while they last!

A TV Commercial...For A Magazine...For Kids

You know it's 2018 when the only part of this that is recognizable are the words "commercial" and "kids!"

Bob Barker on The Price Is Right

How do I know that you grew up watching Barker reminding you to spay and neuter your pets? Maybe it's because he hosted the show for over 35 years!

Barker is still kicking, but we'll have to shout our guesses at Drew Carey from now on, which is fine, I suppose.

AOL

If you even know what AOL stands for, then you prove how dated you are. This disc was the source of an insane amount of stress for people in the early days of the internet, and probably still is.

What about those things that you could have sworn were there just a second ago...?

Blockbuster Video

Jeeze, remember when you couldn't drive 10 blocks without seeing two of these blue and yellow buildings popping up? It may have seemed like they would always be here, but no one was prepared for the advance of the internet.

Flip Phones

Ever since the smart phones took over, I haven't seen one of these in the wild for years. Just as the dinosaurs had their day and then left us, so did these weird, breakable mobile devices.

Car Antennae

No, I'm not crazy, you're crazy. Go outside and see how many of these you can find on the cars passing by.

Except for a few vehicles from the 90s that are still beating down the highways, you probably won't lay eyes on these fixtures ever again.

They just up and disappeared! It's sad because now how we be able to make that satisfying "BOIWOWING" sound in the parking lot?

Share if you remember a time that these all existed in together!

30 Toys From The Sears Wishbook We All Wanted Under Our Christmas Tree 30 Years Ago

I think we can all agree that one of the best things to do while growing up was digging through the Sears Wishbook to try and make our Christmas lists.It was around this time every year that we started to get really serious about it, even though Christmas was still a ways off. We obviously needed a lot of time to plan out our lists for Santa Claus, and we weren't about to make the same mistake as the year before and forget to send one! The Wishbook was an important part of that and while it may not

10 Weebles Playsets From Our Childhoods We Loved To Watch Wobble

There were always toys when you were a kid that seemed to be more important than the rest. There were some that you couldn't go to bed without, there were others that you spent months begging your parents for, and then there were a few that were just staples, readily available where ever you went. No matter which friends house you were at or doctor's office waiting room you were in, there were some that just seemed to be everywhere. Weebles were one of the toys you would be mostly likely to find anywhere that toys were set up for

Fashion Experts Are Trying To Trick Us Into Wearing Flared Jeans Again And We Aren't Having It

Listen, I know fashion is cyclical. I know that things are going to go in and out of style, but here's the thing, not everything should. Fashion is also highly subjective. We all have our own opinions, but when the fashion magazines start telling us "this is what is in style" we all second guess our choices. Now, these experts are telling us to dust off our old flared jeans and honestly, I don't understand why. I know that flared jeans were huge in the disco-era, and I know this because when they came back in the late 90s and

Lip Smacker's New Christmas Collection Brings Back Your 90s Favorites. All Of Them.

If there was one product that you had to pick that would best represent what it was like to be a preteen in the 90s, I think a lot of us girls would agree that Lip Smackers would be the best choice. These little tubes of oftentimes glittered, scented, colorful lip-balm made us all feel like the fanciest of ladies, totally ready to grab our purses and do whatever it is that our moms did when they weren't paying attention to us. You had so many different choices too. You'd have a classic berry scented red Lip Smacker, you'd have

25 Bridesmaids Dresses That'll Actually Make You Glad The 80s Are Over

Listen, getting married in the 80s was kind of wild. Not only did you have to deal with the big hair, mullets, and mustaches, but the fashion was a whole other bag of worms. There was no way to predict how insane the dresses were going to look, but it was always safe to assume they would be pretty wild. Puffy sleeves, shiny fabric, and a lot of ruffles seemed to be the norm at the time. Let's not forget that return to the Victorian era that saw women trying to dress like an old-time princess. But, we brave the
