Nostalgia: remember getting on AOL and talking to strangers. First question was always “ASL”

age, sex, location" and was often used as an icebreaker or to start a conversation with a stranger

I didn’t really do chatrooms Because I was a scaredy cat lol my parents were OBSESSED with to catch a predator

Wait wait wait remember when everyone had a blackberry and we would be in BBM chat rooms with random ass people and in “groups” 🤣🤣😂😂😂

Ok but imagine meeting a teenager online today and your first question is "asl"... creep factor, yo.

lol my parents didn’t let me on aol

lol you know what’s crazy. Even from that point I lied. I was never my age and never from my area shoot not even the state lol it’s like something in me was like don’t tell these people the truth 😂 catfishing since the beginning

LMAOOO AND THEN PEOPLE WOULD JUST BE LIKE “21, male, ohio” like no “hello how are you” my friends and i used to go on omegle and die of laughter

idk how some of us made it this far with how naive and ignorant we used to be online or in person

Yes 😂 those were the days. I couldn’t wait to get home and turn on my big ol desktop, with the dial up connection and join those chat rooms. I also use to call the radio lines 😂

@Khyia I use to send fake pictures of a spanish singer I didn’t think anyone would know 😂

@MJ_xo lmfaoooooo that is quick thinking. Imagine if the catfish show existed then 😂😳

@Khyia bunch of underage kids. We were the predators 😂

@MJ_xo yeah and tell everyone no one can make any phone calls cuz we are going on the internet!!
