Anyone remember these sherbert straws? Everyone was obsessed with them and they ended up being banned in my school because the playground was absolutely covered in empty ones 😂 Also fondly remember buying Fizzy Jerks and Toffos from the vending machine.

also, a bit later: I ❤ NY white t shirts, superman t shirts and the obsession with Superman and Batman belt buckles

Yesss I loved these! Making sure the opening didn’t touch your mouth because the saliva would make the sherbet stick and not come out 😂 remember they were 1p each! Crazy how you could have went to the shop with £1 back in the day and the amount of stuff you’d get! I remember my mum sending me to the shop by our house to buy her cigarettes and id get to keep the change 30/40p and I’d have got loads! Imagine being able to send your kid to buy you smokes now! Even if I handed my daughter £1 to go to the shop with she would laugh at me 😂

I really want impulse goddess to come back that was my fav.

I was in next the other day and saw just pink which brought back 00s memories for me too
I had just pink but didn’t like it back then. But have tested it recently and i liked it!

Out of air and 02, 02 is definitely the better one.

I don't have tiktok but I get sucked into the reels on instagram which are basically all from tiktok anyway and oh my god its so addictive 😩 I've always been someone who scoffed at people being 'addicted' to their phones but its actually becoming a problem for me 😅
It's truly quite disconcerting how many platforms are pushing this type of content because they know its so addictive but soon it will be unavoidable.
I don't want to totally avoid them either because some of them are genuinely interesting or comforting but mixed with a lot of other crap and the way you end up endlessly scrolling I swear it's rotting our brains. And then you open up the comments and that's a whole other can of worms! 😬
Sorry for the ramble but I've been thinking a lot about this recently! 🙃
Yeah Snapchat is popular with teens as well. It’s all going to be short form videos in the future 😢

You should listen to the podcast by Holly and Bridget, very interesting in parts. I LOVED made, also was jt made or a different show where they re-enacted the music video of someone ? I remember one in which two sisters or twins re-enacted j lo's love don't cosy a thing. There was also a weightloss show before college
That was Becoming. I loved that show

I downloaded tiktok. Slightly OT I know but this thread is millennials reminiscing and adapting to new technology ;)

it’s not THAT addictive but I don’t think the algorithm has got me yet. It’s worked out I like cats and funny videos after an hour, but the videos are quite generic, like I don’t find people falling over funny etc :) think the recommendations get better the longer you spend on it

Omg does anyone else remember these 😂 when the glitter was inside and you could shake it
Yes! I had one at my grandmas house. Can’t remember what one though but I did get a piggy water bottle one from Asda a couple of years ago, I dropped it to many times though and broke it 😂
