Alright, folks — here’s an interview/questionnaire with musician (and 90s kid) AARON CAMPER! Check out his responses and leave some of your own answers to these questions in the comment section!
What character from the 1990s would you like to hang out with the most?
Honestly, I could actually see myself and Skeeter kickin it, hangin real tuff and baggin’ alotta chicks from Bluffington. He had mild swag. I could work with that.
What 90s series would people be surprised to find out that you watched?
I watched a good amount of Goof Troop. I thought nothing would top Tale Spin and I started to lose hope for a while…but Maxx and PJ came thru like MJ in the 4th.
What is your proudest video game accomplishment?
Beatin’ and stompin’ Goro to a friggin bloody pulp and lovin’ every bit of it. I used Sub Zero religiously and I must’ve frozen him and used that upper-cut atleast 13 times in that last round.
What is your favorite sports moment of the 1990s?
My favorite sports moment had to be when Mike came back to the game, although the 45 thru us all for a loop. My favorite sports (entertainment) moment was when Ultimate Warrior beat Hogan, and the infamous “torch” was “supposedly” passed. Then Bret Hart happened. Lol
What 90s songs/musicians can be found on your iPod?
I have a big gumbo in my iPhone that consists of everyone from Green Day and The Red Hot Chili Peppers to everything BadBoy put out from Craig Mac to 112 and all points in between. They were the Motown of my generation.
What 90s video game robbed you of the most hours of your life?
Sonic The Hedgehog 2 kept my palms sweaty for months ! Tails F’d up alotta diamonds for me in the special zones, and all those lil mechanical robots you had to save ultimately just wasn’t worth it.
What 90s music artist(s) inspired you most?
In the 90′s R&B and Hip-Hop dominated everything around me. Again…Bad Boy Records, Boyz II Men, Jodeci, Tribe Called Quest, Busta, B.I.G, Ma$e, Brandy, Blackstreet, Kci &JoJo etc. and I’m from Maryland so of course Dru Hill and Ginuwine.
What cartoon character is most like you?
Bonkers and I share a lot of the same qualities. A bit scary at times.

90s Movie: Home Alone

X-Men, Ninja Turtles or Power Rangers?
X-men would take it to all of em’. All day.

It’s tough. Starting and Ending the 90′s WWF, BUT WCW really caught fire and competed heavily all throughout the decade.

Tales from the Crypt.
Fruit Gushers, Fruit By The Foot or Fruit Roll-ups?
Gushers shut the game down.

Nickelodeon was pretty much an institution for us all. A beacon of hope for 90′s kids all over the world to think wider, reach further and go outside and get active…… Ok, that’s an old “Wild&Crazy Kids” reference but, you get the point.

When we were kids, there were very few forms of words & illustrations bound together on pieces of paper that really appealed to us. Besides Where’s Waldo and comic books, there were two other very well liked exceptions. Nickelodeon Magazine & Disney Adventures were two things that 90s kids really enjoyed. Nickelodeon Magazine ran a commercial that must’ve aired at every single break (see below), because it’s forever embedded in plenty of our brains. Anyway, these magazines featured content that we found interesting during that time period. See, nowadays we’re more likely to read magazines with content covering celebrity gossip, fashion, sports or things of that nature. Back then we got our thrills from Nickelodeon Magazine’s comics, pranks, posters, interviews, recipes, non-fiction articles and general humor. The coolest thing about ‘em was the fact that they didn’t strictly contain things only associated with their network; they covered all sorts of topics a kid could relate to! Meanwhile, Disney Adventures managed to capture the entertaining/fun aspects that Nickelodeon Magazine had, while adding some educational material in addition. So, we learned a few things and got the take pleasure in the puzzle games, entertainment news, fun facts (a section called: Weird Yet True) and a sports guide, created by ESPN. While both magazines have met their demise, they put together strong runs that managed to live on past our childhoods. If you have the slightest hoarding tendencies, surely you’ve got some of these magazines lying around somewhere.
OK, who else has seen this Nickelodeon Magazine commercial below SO MANY times that you can still recite nearly every word, verbatim? Nostalgia at its finest!
