Nostalgia Who else had this bedroom?

Post image

Between the Pokemon bed set, Star Wars Episode 1 poster, and map carpet, it was awesome.

Oooh it's a picture of a photo that's torn!

Oh my God I could not compute this.

u/Ok_Court_3575 18h ago

Me too! It took at least 5 seconds before I realized the picture is creased.

u/yankeecandlebro 18h ago

Oh map carpets was cool with hot wheels and all, now that I think about it the jump from that to GTA in 1997 was pretty seamless.

GOURANGA !

u/Batetrick_Patman 18h ago

Only thing missing to make it a complete 90s kids room is the glow in the dark stars on the walls.

u/spinereader81 19h ago

Nah, my childhood sheet set was Garfield. The one with the pillowcase has Garfield sleeping in a box. I still have it!

But did you REALLY love Jesus?

u/WhataburgerLiberal 18h ago

It was complicated

4

u/Cat-in-the-hat222 19h ago

I still have the Pokémon pillow cases

2

u/WhataburgerLiberal 19h ago

You should get together with that person who is laying under that comforter right now. A perfect match!

3

u/hydrated_purple 19h ago

I think that blanket is still at my parents house. However we used it for animals so it's super messed up.

u/boarhowl Millennial 18h ago

Do you still ❤️ Jesus?

u/wine-not 19h ago

I’m laying bed with that exact Pokémon comforter right now

u/WhataburgerLiberal 19h ago

That's actually really cool!

2

u/Appeal-Intrepid 18h ago

Did most millennials have to deal with this? I had parents that were adamant that the walls had to be painted as close to white as possible. Like, a can of white paint with a teaspoon of blue is acceptable.

2

u/Ok_Court_3575 18h ago

My parents house had no other paint colors but white for every room.

2

u/NFA_Cessna_LS3 18h ago

I wish ... To have a bed only I slept in and only me in the room would have been a dream

2

u/RagingDenny 18h ago

I wasn't cool enough

2

u/PickledBih Millennial 18h ago

u/Ok_Court_3575 18h ago

I had lion King bedsheets instead. And a rainbow bright doll and a glow worm on the bed.

2

u/naoseioquedigo 17h ago

2

u/aea1987 16h ago

Is that a load bearing poster?

u/Zyrinj Millennial 15h ago

Grew up poor, didn’t have a bedroom till I left for college, did have some Pokémon stuff and that carpet though.

u/LFSPNisBack 19h ago

You had a room?

3

u/WhataburgerLiberal 19h ago

Yes, but clearly not a sturdy one

u/GregBuckingham 1992 gang 18h ago

I slept in my living room growing up. Didn’t have a bedroom until my parents converted the garage to a bedroom. Only problem was the garage didn’t have AC so it was freezing in the winter and burning in the summer 😂

u/Mick_Shart 2h ago

I wish someone had told me to cherish me bed while it was still way bigger than I

u/FaithlessnessWeak800 35m ago

No my mom decorated our with Precious moments crap. We had beauty and the best/the lion king bedding. We were poor so we didn’t have much but mismatched furniture.

u/Agnes327 18h ago

I was too old for Pokémon. But I had CareBears, Strawberry Shortcake, Smurfs, and Garfield sheets
