Nostalgia is a funny feeling. It is probably the best version of feeling bittersweet there is. There is happiness in nostalgia embedded in the nice memories it brings, but there is also sadness in knowing those days are gone. Nostalgic images are fun to look back on, but it's crazy to think how much things have changed in such a relatively short amount of time. Things are different now, which is fine, but the good ol' days are fondly missed.

While nostalgia is different from person to person, there are some things that large groups of people recognize as nostalgic. This goes for 90s nostalgia especially. The 90s were such a special and iconic time for so many people regarding so many things. The stores were different, the designs were different, toys and games were different, technology was nowhere near what it is now, and something about the 90s is just… a good vibe.

Reddit's /r/nostalgia is a subreddit where people can share all of the images they have seen that made them feel nostalgic. From old candies to classic video games, tons of things can feel a little nostalgic. Here are 26 images that might make some people feel a little old today.
