Turns Out, There’s A “You Had To Be There” Trend On Twitter And Here Are 75 Of The Best Tweets About It
Nostalgia is a powerful and, quite frankly, fun thing. Many of us likely have a favorite TV show we watched the first thing in the morning while preparing for school, the same one that influenced our personalities. Or perhaps you can recall the lighter things, the ones that make you laugh and grant some respite from the hectic pace of the world. And then there are the light mistakes, like the popular candy that left a sour taste in your mouth. Basically, nostalgia comes in many forms, we each have fond memories related to childhood (or not-so-distant youth!), and from time to time, it's nice to recall the carefree days of our lives.

I used to make these at summer camp while gossiping with the older girls and counselorsurs
Twitter users jumped right on the ongoing trend of "You had to be there", posting pictures that encapsulate certain times in their lives. Some of the posts can involve things from a few years ago, while others go back decades—and each of them is accompanied by the feeling of nostalgia that's attached to the pictures.
Plenty of people are jumping in on this trend, from regular folk to official and certified accounts, each post presenting a blast from the past that was somehow special for them, be it TV series that aired a decade ago or a newer movie that's only a few years old. Time is a flexible thing, and the trend reflects different periods that people grew up in.

And there's an unspoken rule to these posts—you shouldn't add a description to the pictures. Basically, if you know, you know. If you don't, don't worry about it. The variety of the posts—containing old movies, physical items, or discontinued media—apply to people of different ages. So, there's a bit of everything for everyone.

Man, this reminds me of my first car (an Acclaim). Like driving a pillow with better safety ratings.

How did my eyes do that? I finally got a glimpse of what the other half sees!"

I get the little gold tinge on the black but how could anyone see white from that very clearly blue? It's not even light blue

Seriously? Everyone older than five years was there for this one, and it's still stupid.

The weird thing is when I first scrolled it first looked light blue and gold. Then white and gold as I saw the whole pic.
Martin Kaine 3 years ago
Actually, as I scrolled down, I saw the white/gold, but as more of the picture was revealed it went back to blue/black. Wild.

Yes, but don't worry. The same thing will happen to them when they hit adulthood.

Many of these could still be around, they were not bad things and we have little or no improvement on them. I am British and recognise most of them.

I was not there. I was born in 2000. I am too young to be a millenial, but I am too old for gen z... I am like a ghost, stuck between two worlds but belonging to neither.
