32 Games You Played, And Now Miss, If You're A Classic '90s Baby
Michał Parzuchowski

As a 90's baby, I grew up playing these games. Whether with friends or family, some of these games could get pretty heated. If you haven't played them yet, now's your chance!

1. Mousetrap

Try to trap your friends in this game!

2. Chutes and Ladders

Just when you think you’re getting ahead, you land on the longest slide in the game.

3. Candyland

Get your sweet tooth fix with this classic board game.

4. Monopoly

The game where you get to demand over $1,000 from your friends and they have to give it to you.

5. Yahtzee

This one is fun to play with your whole family.

6. Battleship

“You sunk my battleship!”

7. Hangman

Try to trick your friends with words like “bagpipe.”

8.Guess Who

The game where asking questions like “Do they have a huge nose?” is OK.

9. Cootie

Build little caterpillar looking things in this goofy game.

10. Pretty Pretty Princess

My sister and I used to get into fistfights over who got the crown.

11. Operation

Honestly, this game scared me so I didn’t play it a whole lot.

12. Mystery Date

Find the perfect date with this game. Too bad it wasn’t real.

13. Hungry Hungry Hippos

This game could be painful if a finger got stuck in between a trigger-happy opponent and a hippo’s mouth.

14. Don’t Break the Ice

This game is a great ice-breaker.

15. Twister

Get tangled up with your friends in awkward positions.

16. Mall Madness

In this game, your credit card can’t get maxed out. If only life was like that.

17. Slamwich

“That’s not a sandwich.” “Oh, I would totally eat a peanut butter and lettuce sandwich.” “Riiight…”

18. Space Cadet 3D

I could play this for hours.

19. Connect 4

It’s kind of like tic tac toe...right?

I never fully understood this game.

21. Let’s Go Fishin’

This game is a reel fun time, it got me hooked.

22. Scene It

There are so many versions, where to start?

23. Bop It

I had such a hard time keeping up with this!

24. Clue

Who done it?

25. Hi Ho Cherry-O

When you accidentally spilled the cherries off of the board, it was the worst thing that could happen.

26. Sorry

“Sorry.” “No you’re not.”

27. Trouble

The best part was the poppable dice.

28. Life

Pick your favorite celebrity at the time to be your spouse.

29. Elefun

Never before have I been so excited to catch butterflies.

There was always that one person who got frustrated and knocked the whole tower down on purpose.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
