40 Memes Which Roll Back Time To The Good Old-Fashioned Past, As Posted By This Instagram Account

I was about 6 when I opened my Angel Tree present and received the AUTHENTIC Crayola 256 Box Set (I knew how much it cost, something like $25) and not 1, not 2, not even 5, but 10 whole coloring books all for just me! My parents swear they thought I had won the lottery!

These are still around! Last Christmas I bought one for my husband and one for my daughter (and one for myself).

my favorite snack

And wherever they're all at, I guarantee most of them still work

Why are you doing this to us?

Aren't those Tiddly Winks?

I DID!

I don't know if I can throw mine away. It's like saying good bye to a faithful friend. When Spotify is down or my music is so obsolete that it doesn't exist in digital form, my faithful compact disc's will always be there to sing to me. Now, I just don't know what to play them on...

My favorite movie growing up!

I remember listening to conversations on a party-line, 😆

I had this scratch and sniff one that I was really proud of

And there were these extra curricular teachers that would hand them out if you did good or smth like that

of blurry pictures. Remember flash cubes?

My entire life is a lie.

The circling was fun

i can hear the sound of the plastic UUGHHHH

I had the clear phone in my room, and the ringer was LOUD! I would turn off the ringer and it would still light up when it rang, so my friends could call me late at night and not wake up my parents (I had my own phone line in my room paid for by my babysitting money).

And peeling your legs off the pleather seats.

"you are old", ouch

I kinda want to eat this rn

Ah, Tales From The Crypt, one of the good ones.

I'm 43 years old and I take my metal "Yellow Submarine" lunch box to work every day 😁

OH HELL YEAH download-2...00e22.jpeg

Yeah. Well. Have you ever had one slip out of your grasp only to give you a minor knuckle fracture?!!!!!

They are easy to throw and catch, and the sound they make when you catch one is the same as their name (Koosh!),

because other kids had them

I remember a Christmas party at work, back in the day, where all the Secret Santa gifts were handed out by the managers. This one girl got a Koosh Ball. She didn’t know what it was, and kept asking who in the hell got her a cat toy for Secret Santa?

They tangle spectacularly in hair.

Still do, I can see it from where I sit.

We used to goof around with them at work (overnight stock crew member). We also had a go at "Stretch Armstrong." 1D27490746...ng-toy.jpg

i love these and can't stand it when my little brother breaks them

Also great for getting hair wrapped up in them!

They were handy for scaring friends while watching "Arachnophobia"!!!

I still love things like this

I just spent all my time grabbing a pinch full and tugging on them then letting them go continuously until they started pulling off.

I had one to

This was one of my favorite toys as a kid

They were a sensory thing, too, when you ran your hand over the "hairs."

Because they are awesome!

My cat would fetch the mini ones.

Somebody is a billionaire from selling s**t to kids. More than one family, I'd say.

Mine was purple! Managed to keep it thru HS

I had a few and I think they were just to have for no purpose kinda like fidget spinners.

I think I actually didn't

When I was a kid they had this things called Kooshlings. They were koosh balls with a face and bendy arms and legs.

The purpose was to throw at a sibling and not get into too much trouble.

I still have one. Still smells the same.

We used these as cat toys.

Cause they were fun!

They're a ball that you can throw and not cause injuries (although they still caused extensive damage to lamps and vases, but they wouldn't break a window or wall)

Used for the speaking cirlce. You couldn't talk unless you were the one holding it. Kept everyone on their best behavior

Why not? They were fun and they were stress balls!

We'd throw them in the above ground pool my uncle had. The water would fly off in 100s of directions. We thought we discovered a secret way to play with them. Man... I hadn't thought about that in years

Used mine as a stress ball lol

My sister and I had these. You can have a lot of fun with them.
