64 Nostalgic Tweets That Are Definitely ‘All That’

When we were kids, anything seemed possible. I’m not talking about the “American Dream” either. I’m talking about the presented reality in which puppets and humans could coexist. If we took stock of all of the times we were led to believe that talking puppets would be part of our daily lives, we’d be pretty disappointed with what life turned out to be. 

In fact, one Twitter user has a distinct childhood memory of her mom trying to warn her, saying, “You can’t be cousins with a puppet. It’s not possible,” when Cousin Skeeter was on TV. See what adulthood does to you? 

While those dreams of a better world are dead, these tweets live on, tapping us on the shoulder and asking if we remember when our backs didn’t hurt, people got seriously injured during Black Friday sales and Happy Meal toys were actual toys. We do remember — and life was good.
