Let’s face it:

Though some of us don’t feel a day over 12 emotionally, we’re all old AF – and every waking hour is a reminder of how long ago our glory days actually were. Though we keep aging, we’ll always have our memories… until we get too old and all that sh^t fades away. Thankfully, we have photo lists to help us remember all the glorious places of our youth that we’ll never be able to return to again.

Damn, it hurts so good.

1. Trying not to get your hair caught in the slide at Discovery Zone

2. Browsing the New Releases at Blockbuster on a Friday night

3. Taking this exact charter bus on the best field trip of your life

4. Wandering through K.B. Toys at the mall while your mom shops for clothes at Montgomery Ward

5. Spending hours combing through all the C.D.s at Borders

6. Trying to find a seat at this exact lunch table without looking like a loser… and failing

7. Playing with the built-in cigarette lighters in the back seat door of the family car

8. Fighting for time at the command center of every home: the family computer…

9. …then staring at this screensaver for minutes on end before playing Minesweeper and Solitaire

10. Creating a symphony of ‘clack-cla-cla-clacks’ while digging through video game cartridges in your best friend’s basement

11. Sitting on these with your neighbor besties and not giving af because you were invincible times infinity

We can never go back, you guys.

We. Can. Never. Go. Back.
