It’s funny – for a generation that’s as instagtantly nostalgic as mine is, we rarely actually wanna look at what we were like back in the day.
Because the past, by and large, is not pretty. Though it is frequently hilarious.
Enter a fascinating rabbit hole on Reddit called r/blunderyears, where people voluntarily post relics of their own cringey past that they may be mourned and celebrated communally.
Let us enter the zone now, and try to survive.
13. Guess who?
I’ll tell ya who still probably didn’t know: that boy.
12. Choice
Look,, we all make choices.
11. Done
“I’m just old for my age, you wouldn’t understand.”
10. Phase out
Got some serious rawr XD energy going on here.
9. Bang bang
Nevermind that, the rest of your hair is trying to escape.
8. What a performance!
Who doesn’t love the utility of a good fanny pack?
7. Beat that
If that kid wasn’t drowning in ladies I’d be shocked.
6. Sticking together
Ah yes, I remember these.
5. Danger zone!
It’s hardly fair, there’s one of me, and yet only four of me.
4. Taste the difference
Why does he look like he just caught those drums from horseback?
3. Blunderbuss
Hanson in a very alternate reality.
2. Eye see you
“Nice try God, I’ll take it from here.”
1. Oh brother
I…kind of need to hear this immediately.
If heartwarming cringe could be converted to electricity, this page could power a city.
What were your blunder years like? What did you wear? What did you do for fun?
