You do realize that this is /c/90s_memes right? In the 90’s people didnt abbreviate every word longer than 5 characters.

Are you forgetting SMS speak? People used to have 160 characters or less

You think we were texting in the 90s?

1993 feels VERY 90's to me for some reason.

Also I distinctly remember Nokia phones even before the 3310

Well excuse me for being from the Nordics where it was adopted early

Just saying it doesn’t work as a reason to abbreviate everything in this meme. 🤷‍♀️

In the 90s it wasn't 2025

In the 90s, those were your mom's numbers. Waist size, weigt in kilos, body count. 2025. These are 90s jokes btw.
