When I was a young child, we had a phone like this. It was black. My parents placed a photo of me in the middle. When someone dialed a number, my face would spin. I loved watching that!

Steve @joebugbuster.bsky.social ,
are you interested in bringing #NostalgiaChat to #Bluesky?

The #NostalgiaChat finale and 11th birthday/anniversary was June 4, 2023.

How many chats make it to the decade mark?! It was a great run, but there was less activity on Twitter and no equivalent platform had taken hold.

@CrystiCaro I was sent to a USC Journalism workshop the summer before my sr. year of high school. Felt like a big shot. LOL #NostalgiaChat

A5 That'd be a big fat NOTHING. :) #NostalgiaChat

RT @bekiweki: Q5: What were you most excited about when it was time to go back to school? How about your kids? #NostalgiaChat

A4 Some friends and I played our own version of "Star Trek" -- we created & acted out our own characters but similar idea. #NostalgiaChat

RT @bekiweki: Q4: What games did you play during recess? What was that like as a child? #NostalgiaChat

A3 Favorite subject was probably time spent working the school newspaper. If that counts. LOL #NostalgiaChat

RT @bekiweki: Q3: What was your favorite school subject growing up, and why? #NostalgiaChat

A2 Packs of loose-leaf notebook paper, Trapper Keepers, mechanical pencils. :) Wanted a backpack that'd hold up all year. #NostalgiaChat

A1 My mom, who had a 4.0 GPA, hated school so much she would get physically ill every morning for years! #NostalgiaChat

A1 I HATED the first day of school. All of them. My "kid" is a Collie...so I'll skip that part. LOL #NostalgiaChat

RT @bekiweki: Q1: What memories do you have of your first day of school growing up? (What about for your kids?) #NostalgiaChat

RT @bekiweki: Tonight's #NostalgiaChat is all about back-to-school memories! Reminder: Next week #NostalgiaChat moves to 7 p.m. ET.

You must die to be a superhero now? RT @Andrew7000: A3: Anyone who gave their lives in the quest for peace. #nostalgiachat

A3 NONE. Between constant "reboots" of Superman and Spider Man, I'm superheroed out. #NostalgiaChat

RT @JoeBugBuster Q3: Who is your favorite #SuperHero *now*? #NostalgiaChat

A1 I don't know that I had one, to be honest. Maybe Incredible Hulk? (TV Version that is.) But is that a "superhero"? #nostalgiachat

RT @JoeBugBuster Q1: Who was your favorite #SuperHero when you were growing up? #NostalgiaChat

Just popping in for a few at #NostalgiaChat -- Weather's pretty quiet here, just hot and humid.

A4 The fireworks we lit at home couldn't compare to "pro" fireworks. Watching fireworks on Lake Murray was always nice. #nostalgiachat

A3 Mostly just being able to play outside with neighborhood kids instead of being stuck in a classroom. #nostalgiachat

RT @bekiweki Q3: What were activities you'd always do during your summers growing up? #NostalgiaChat

A2 Hamburgers, hot dogs, potato salad, cookout fare... All that's changed is there aren't many cookouts anymore. #nostalgiachat

RT @bekiweki Q2: What foods were a must for your July 4 celebrations growing up? How have things changed now? #NostalgiaChat

A1 Watching fireworks if it doesn't feel like 150° outside. LOL #nostalgiachat

A5 Honestly, I thought just email was cool. No postage for sending a letter and it actually got there! #NostalgiaChat

RT @bekiweki Q5: What were your first thoughts and memories of the Internet? Where did you think or hope it would go? #NostalgiaChat

A4 Mobile phones. Being able to have them not plugged into a cig. lighter/outside a bag and so small! #Nostalgiachat
