55 Kids Jokes: The 1998 “Furby & Google Garage” Edition

In 1998, the pinnacle of cool was owning a Furby that wouldn’t stop talking, and the bravest thing you could do was watch Dawson’s Creek without your parents knowing. It was the year of A Bug’s Life, the launch of the Game Boy Color, and the moment a tiny company called Google decided to organize the internet.
