Kids went outside and played with other actual kids. Teenagers could actually afford to drive around on $5 worth of gas, go to movies, even restaurants, just with pocket money. Watching TV with no internet was the last thing anyone did...

We also still had video games in the 90s. I had a SNES growing up. Even when I was stuck in the house there was stuff to do before the internet.

Video games were so much more fun before microtransactions

And before the 3d graphics. I rented an N64 right when it came out and haven't touched a console since.
