This is probably the best thing I ever posted on Twitter. The memory is pretty dear to me; I'm sharing it here so it still exists somewhere if that place collapses.

It still gets shared probably once per month by "wholesome meme" type accounts on IG and Facebook. Each time I get a stream of messages from old friends asking "Is this you?”

I've even seen it shared on here; it's so strange when it racks up hundreds or thousands of reposts for other people. Someone will share a screenshot, maybe add 📚 and 🔦emoji, and then half the replies mistake it for an actual post.

@mcnees I've seen this allll over the place. Even if Twitter does collapse, they'll probably be reposting it for years to come. Similar to the strange afterlife of popular Vines.
@tomw “Strange afterlife" is exactly the right way to describe it.
