Actually, it was officially nostalgia last year, but...

I was in college. FRIENDS premiered. PULP FICTION had come out. Hole released "Live Through This". Kurt Cobain died and Justin Bieber was born (coincidence?).
And of course we were all like this...

I remember that early episode of South Park (from 1997) where they unfreeze the man from 1994 who in the end had to go to the only place that would accept him... Des Moines.

Oh, and "Ace of Base". Lots of "Ace of Base".

Ugh. 1994. I was still married to my first husband.

I was in 10th grade. God, I can't believe how old that makes me feel. We got Internet at my house in '97 and I remember getting yelled at that nobody could use the phone while someone was online.

My house burned down.
I had boob surgery.
My drama teacher gave birth to my first love, her son. Oh, I still adore that little man.

I moved from an Upper East Side studio to a rent-stabilized one bedroom in the West Village.

I was 4. I had to get stitches on my chin after falling off the top of the sliding pole at the pre-school playground. I remember nothing else except it got my mother to faint and I screamed like a banshee on the way there. I watched the **** out of The Lion King, saw it in theaters at least five times and begged to get Lion King bedding- which I did. My favorite PBS program, The Puzzle Place also premiered that year.

I was a high school sophomore, and that was the school year I took typing. We were the last class to be taught on typewriters.

And that was the year I went to Europe for the first time. :)

Wow, I was in the 4th grade, starting a new school. I wore overalls, lol.

I bought the Salt N Peppa "Whatta Man" cassette.

Apparently the NBC employee who posted this got canned.

Does no one at NBC have a sense of humor?

Katie Couric probably enjoyed the laugh, but I bet that tight wad Bryant Gumble demanded it be taken down.
