There are some memes that flare and fade, with a brief moment in the spotlight before disappearing from even our memories.
Then there are “I’m this old,” or “I’m this many years old,” which I predict is going to be around for awhile. Maybe forever.
These are 13 that are sure to bring those memories flooding back.
13. I have never seen this before now.
And I’m really, really sad about it.
Has anyone done this one yet?

I am definitely some years old – some older than these pictures, some younger – and I actually loved the trip back through time.
