    Pagers

    Didn't you hate it when you would page someone "911" and it took them forever to call you back - It is the 90's equivalent of not getting a text reply back in modern times from someone for hours on end.

    Dial-up Internet

    Remember the pains of being on the internet talking with your friends on AOL Chat and someone in the house picked up the phone, cause the connection to disconnect?

    Furbies

    The toy was introduced in 1998 and was the hottest thing that Christmas; selling over 40 million units in it's first 3 years of production. How and why this was the hottest thing, we may never ever know.

    For whatever reason, Hasburo decided to bring the Furby back in 2005 and 2012.
