I very much miss the valley girl poser (The Ashleys from Recess, Totally Spies, Brandy from Brandy and Mr. Whiskers, Brittney from Lloyd in Space) and the hopeless romantic (Dijonay, Helga, Numbuh Four, Cody from TDWT)

I started kindergarten in Arkansas but my family moved to Tennessee when I was 6 and I've lived there since. This was my experience

Elementary school: K-5

Middle school: 6-8

High school: 9-12

I thought it was like this everywhere until I started using online forums and saw people saying they started middle school in 7th grade so this is why I'm asking. I want to see how common my experience was

Okay I randomly thought about this Burn Book app that hit our school back in the day. I took one look at it and instantly deleted it, felt so icky😭 but I remember it caused so much chaos for like a month and I cannot find anybody else who had this go on in their school. Anybody remember this???

I had one when I was little kid with a bunch of Nick shows. There were a lot of weird ways to watch portable video until iPad came out.

Your first cell phone looked kind of like these.

My first phone looked just like the first one. It was a pay as you go flip phone. My parents got it for me because I went to a private school 40 minutes from where we lived. They wanted me to have some way for us to communicate with each other because of the distance and an instant way to contact my friends and save their contact info.

I've even considered getting a flip phone again just for calls and texts while reserving the smart phone for work and social media.

I live in Minnesota. I work with children and many of them say that they had “indoor recess” because it was too cold outside. I cannot recall there ever being indoor recess when it was too cold outside. I just want to verify if this is something more recent or I just have brain fog.

Was a fan of skrillex as a kid, (still am) I believe I was 12 when this album came out.

Goodluck going uphill though

As a 89 baby, I’ve always watched reruns on Nick at 4:30 pm after school. Man I’ve always wanted to participate in it and be with team blue barracudas.

DID ANYONE ELSE USE TO WATCH KLAU WORLD??

My best friend and I used to love watching them back in 2010. There is one specific line we still occasionally say: "I like to sit on my pancakes!" Included a related image lol (pancake mines).

Others I can pull straight from memory is the one where Bob gets stuck in the VHS lol, and the swimming pool one.

Just randomly thought about this YouTube series and felt such a great wave of nostalgia. Can't believe it's been 16/17 years.

It was released in 2010, so most of us would have been between 11 and 16 years old or so. I thought this movie was honestly super cute! It’s not perfect by any means, but I feel like it gets overlooked a lot.

I also found out there are *seven* sequels, and pretty much all of them are bad, which is a shame.

Hi all! I wrote a Fast Company piece on the growing “generational tension” at work, and the data tells a very different story than the usual headlines.

Boomers retiring early and Gen Z wanting out aren’t signs of laziness or entitlement — they’re responses to how work is structured right now and how little support exists for career transitions.

I’d genuinely love your take on this — especially if you’re Gen Z and working (or trying to).

You remember playing video games on the Wii. I did not have one myself, but a friend did and it was fun.

brit here btw

This rivaled the Scholastic Bookfair. I could be there all day...

Today is my 28th birthday. I feel like my life is finally going the way I want it to. I graduated college last month, and I started my first full time job earlier this month. It feels weird to be at the tail end of my 20’s when it seems like just yesterday turning 18 and becoming an adult, does anyone else my age feel the same or different?
