40 Extremely Embarrassing Things People Absolutely LOVED 20 Years Ago That I'm Convinced Literally No One Remembers

Around 15 to 20 years ago people loved to... Convince others the iPhone was worth the money by showing them that one app where it looks like you're drinking a beer: And also bust out that one lighter app like it was the most incredible thing ever: Just post the most boring stuff on Facebook: Or the most weirdly intense: Think Chuck Norris jokes were the be-all and end-all of comedy: Watch full-length movies that cost tens of millions of dollars to make on an iPod with a 2-inch screen: Think that talking baby in the E-Trade commercials was the funniest thing they had ever seen: The baby talks, folks. THE BABY TALKS! Think that typing like this meant you were creative: Or this: Or just add Z's to every word for no reason: Take weird pictures of your feet or hands because you all had matching bracelets or shoes: Argue passionately over whether pirates could beat ninjas in a fight: Harass everyone on Facebook with like 14 "LOST PHONE, NEED NUMBERS" groups: And like 17 FarmVille requests: Fake people out with your voicemail message: Celebrate National Talk Like a Pirate Day: Take dramatic photos of Converse: Or draw a bunch of random stuff on them: Think 3D movie theater glasses were a fashion statement: Get obsessed with Doppelgänger Week on Facebook: Take pictures with that one awful Photo Booth filter: Own that one white MacBook that got dirty after like a week: Take weird pictures of your feet or hands because you all had matching bracelets or shoes: Insist that BlackBerry was way better than iPhone because of Brick Breaker and BBM: Change your age to 99 years old on Myspace: Carry around a little leather BDSM case for their flip-phone: Maximum protection. Watch movies on portable DVD players, god rest their soul: Constantly quote that one Bill O'Reilly video where he swears: Take selfies with a big-ass digital camera: Upload 400 pictures to Facebook at once in an album with a title from a Dave Matthews Band song: Spend money on ringback tones. Sweet, sweet ringback tones: Change your profile pic to something like this: And like this: If you had this as your MySpace pic, it meant you once listened to Something Corporate. Wear shoes big enough to house a family of five: Update Facebook from a tiny lil' phone: Publicly put friends on blast: Think adding a "xXx" to a screen name made them a force to be reckoned with: Try to take a selfie with flip phones and completely missing your face, like, 14 times in a row: Accidentally pull out the charging cable while your iPod was in DO NOT DISCONNECT mode: And turn on the TV Guide and just completely vibe out: Sounds blissful, actually.
