I remember having fun with their Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends game where there's so many floors and rooms on the house! I think there were missions you have to comeplete. It was bonkers.
OMFG cartoonnetwork was the TITS. billy and mandy game. ummm there was a KND game as well that i played. Then power puff girls snowboarding or something. omg.
Ahh, yes this is the one I was looking for. Game was so fun to do, but then inflation happened and rip. I know they added a new form of currency though
It's been years since I was on there. Last time I was someone commented on my golden laurels asking how I got them, so I told them. Some random person was getting rid of their account and giving things away first, and they picked me because I said something nice to another person. Literally they just sent them to me telling me they liked my comment. When I told that person how I got them, they called me a fucking liar and a piece of shit. Haven't been back on there since. Definitely did not give away my golden laurels.
While flash is shutting down soon, you can still play those games using a program called Flashpoint, which takes those games from online and lets you play them from your computer’s storage. Really fun replaying all my childhood games.
There was a website that live streamed cameras around Loch Ness, as well as a couple underwater cameras. I was convinced I could be the first person to photograph the Loch Ness Monster for realsies so I spent every waking hour over my summer break before 8th grade watching those cameras and taking screen captures of anything that moved.
I had stumbled across a site with a live camera setup at a watering hole somewhere in Africa. It was amazing. Tuning in different times of the day to see various animals...and when lions had shown up and everyone else had cleared out. Even though there were plenty of times when nothing was there, you could still hear all the sounds. There was always something going on. I loved it.
Retarded Animal Babies, Neurotically Yours, There She Is!, Final Fantasy A+, IndestructoTank, Ultimate Battle of Ultimate Destiny, and so many others... Ah, nostalgia.
Remember playing this with my friends back in the day and being Habbo prostitutes. Basically make attractive girl characters and sollicit "Habbo $ex 4 credits". Thirsty boys with their mums credit cards would then pay with those premium coins and you just switched places in the 2 person bed as quick as possible for a few minutes.
I remember the day I stopped using StumbleUpon. After hours and hours of using it, my final click brought me to a page that simply said “You have reached the end of the internet.” I know it wasn’t real but it snapped me into realizing how much time I wasted.
The best. We had an art teacher in middle school who had some computers in his class, and he’d let a group of us play games after we finished lunch every day. Loved that guy. Addictinggames was the go-to.
LJ has never been topped. My god it was nice. Tumblr was close (in terms of how the site functioned), but shit like Twitter isn't even close. I miss being able to write out actual full thoughts.
Ooooof. I used to be a top icon creator! I participated in and hosted icon awards for a variety of fandoms. I still have all the ones I created too.... Hundreds and hundreds of them...
Yes! LJ was my LIFE from ages 13-16. I posted about my day, photos of my friends, fandom rants, it was great! Actually met one of my IRL best friends there.
I remember being so obsessed with Homestar and nobody ever had any idea what I was referencing and one day on the bus to school I heard someone call someone else "crap for brains" and I thought "could it be?" And sure enough I met a fellow Homestarrunner fan.
I used to get my friends to fight me in the Battledome and I'd always destroy them because I would never admit how deep into Neo Pets I actually was. I used to have armor and those vegetable weapons/elixirs for fucking days.
I blame neopets for my career. I started teaching myself HTML/CSS for that site and now i'm a full time software developer with a focus in the front end.
Yes! Same. I met my closest friends there, and that was ten years ago. I'll never forget how much Neopets changed my life, I'd be a completely different person without the friends I made there.
Can’t believe I had to scroll so far down to find this! I had a boyfriend on Stardoll. Who was actually a girl and decided to come clean about three months into our relationship. Good times
Man I used to visit Fanfiction.net so much when I was younger. I still read fanfiction from time to time but I tend to prefer A03 since the Fanfiction.net site is filled with ads nowadays.
MyScene/Barbie/Polly Pocket games!! Especially the My Scene dress up games. Stardoll got a lot of my time as well. There was also a website got Dollwar that died and was supposed to come back but never did. Obviously any dress up game would keep me occupied for hours.
Have you ever listened to the podcast My Brother, My Brother, and Me? They have been around almost a decade in podcast land and basically it's three brothers giving advice based on Yahoo Answers.
Yes! I still keep in touch with some folks from there. It was definitely better IMO for online community than Reddit. But yeah the week I started coming to Reddit was the one where I stopped going there.
I was so disappointed when they announced they were going to remove the message boards. I never even posted there, but I'd browse all the time every time I watched a new movie.
"The Spark" - they used to do quizzes and stuff - basically the type of thing you'd find on BuzzFeed now (a bit more in depth than "wHaT tYpE oF vEgEtAbLe ArE yOu??" quizzes though) which eventually became SparkNotes and did away with the quizzes.
YTMND basically was my middle school years. Thinking back on it, such a unique and strange concept to have a whole site dedicated to tiled gifs set to sound.
Erowid was great (still is I think, but I am old and don't visit as much). I think learning about drugs and other peoples experiences is so important before trying new drugs, so that you can dose right and have an understanding of what you are in for.
before trying any new drug i would read so much about them, i would look up countless trip reports, before i would feel comfortable taking anything new myself.
FML.com I was always on it trying to feel better about my own life.
This was a favorite. Also textsfromlastnight.com
That and MyLifeIsAverage
Cartoonnetwork.com was awesome back in the day.
Cartoon Cartoon Summer Resort!
I remember having fun with their Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends game where there's so many floors and rooms on the house! I think there were missions you have to comeplete. It was bonkers.
I can’t remember what it was called but I played that Ben 10 level creator so much
OMFG cartoonnetwork was the TITS. billy and mandy game. ummm there was a KND game as well that i played. Then power puff girls snowboarding or something. omg.
StickDeath.Com
I remember waiting 20 plus minutes for the newest Xiao Xiao release to load. Good times.
The amount of hours I spent murdering and maiming stick figures had to be astronomical.
Stickpage is where I was
I had almost forgotten all about that site till now
Gaiaonline. I still stop by once in a while
Ahh, yes this is the one I was looking for. Game was so fun to do, but then inflation happened and rip. I know they added a new form of currency though
There's a great video of what caused the site to decline.
It's been years since I was on there. Last time I was someone commented on my golden laurels asking how I got them, so I told them. Some random person was getting rid of their account and giving things away first, and they picked me because I said something nice to another person. Literally they just sent them to me telling me they liked my comment. When I told that person how I got them, they called me a fucking liar and a piece of shit. Haven't been back on there since. Definitely did not give away my golden laurels.
I spent most of my 13-14 age on that site. It honestly really helped me learn to draw since I did aviart commissions. It was a neat place
Scrolled until I found this. Sad to see it so far down!
Cracked. Back when they actually had talent on their staff.
Cracked was my favorite. I learned more random shit from that website. Too bad it sucks now
Shout-out to After Hours! The best of the best Cracked has put on YouTube.
Watching their content tank in real time was depressing. Once it started to suck we all knew it wasn't getting better
Their photoplasty pages were THE BEST, then they had someone named “Auntie Meme” that just created memes that spewed info everyone already knew.
Came looking for this one. It uses to be such a fun and interesting sight. Watching it decline was a shame.
Used to be how I spent my quieter moments - I was attracted by their article about why a zombie apocalypse would fail instantly.
Armor games
Thank you for this, truly. We love you guys, and it really means a lot that folks are still thinking about us after all this time.
Highest of quality browser games. The RPG called Sonny i think was the shit
Raze was awesome
I remember a zombie game, "last stand" maybe?
GemCraft: Labyrinth! Daily loss of productivity.

I loved poptropica. I have nearly every outfit. I still log on from time to time to check in and mess around
Can’t believe I had to scroll this far to find Poptropica
Newgrounds
I remember when I discovered new grounds had an over 18 section, Hello teen titan porn
I remember playing weird terrorist shooting games on Newgrounds. I sure knew I was too young to be on that site I'm the early 2000s.
Retarded Animal Babies, Neurotically Yours, There She Is!, Final Fantasy A+, IndestructoTank, Ultimate Battle of Ultimate Destiny, and so many others... Ah, nostalgia.
Albinoblacksheep. They had lots of pre-gif videos.
Demented Cartoon Movie was the Citizen Kane of adobe flash. 30 minutes of pure early 2000s randumb humor
Loved me some albinoblacksheep
[удалено]
Pretty sure I got married on there. I would also visit the adoption centers and beat up the orphan children.
I got scammed out of all my furni once and I cried a lot
Pool's closed.
do you remember the HC chairs!!!??
Oh bobba!
Remember playing this with my friends back in the day and being Habbo prostitutes. Basically make attractive girl characters and sollicit "Habbo $ex 4 credits". Thirsty boys with their mums credit cards would then pay with those premium coins and you just switched places in the 2 person bed as quick as possible for a few minutes.
I remember having my first boyfriend on there. Gave me butterflies and everything. Then I found him in bed cybering with another guy. I lost my bobba.
That game had SUCH a weird culture of absolute scams.
StumbleUpon
Everything pales in comparison to StumbleUpon in its prime. Reddit sort of scratches the itch.
I remember the day I stopped using StumbleUpon. After hours and hours of using it, my final click brought me to a page that simply said “You have reached the end of the internet.” I know it wasn’t real but it snapped me into realizing how much time I wasted.
Loved Stumble Upon!! Used to be great and I often went down some deep rabbit holes.
That's how I discovered Reddit and Imgur.
It was this gaming website,
I spent too much time in university on this site. Potty racer during comm class haha.
addictinggames, armorgames, and kongregate were all great. Kids these days don't know how awesome flash games are.
Damn this shit is still around? I wasted so much time. And got a heavy addiction to playing their janky rpgs. Loved that sonny rpg about the zombie
The best. We had an art teacher in middle school who had some computers in his class, and he’d let a group of us play games after we finished lunch every day. Loved that guy. Addictinggames was the go-to.
My full on social life on Club Penguin
Club penguin taught me about division of the classes. Those damn premium penguins with their fancy igloos and 50 puffles....
I was a black belt ;)
The hours spent trying to find Rockhopper that we’ll never get back
Webkinz, maybe Club Penguin
Spent way too much time and money on Webkinz in my life
LiveJournal
Damn that took long enough to find in this thread. I thought I was going to be the first and only person to say it.
LJ has never been topped. My god it was nice. Tumblr was close (in terms of how the site functioned), but shit like Twitter isn't even close. I miss being able to write out actual full thoughts.
Ooooof. I used to be a top icon creator! I participated in and hosted icon awards for a variety of fandoms. I still have all the ones I created too.... Hundreds and hundreds of them...
Yes! LJ was my LIFE from ages 13-16. I posted about my day, photos of my friends, fandom rants, it was great! Actually met one of my IRL best friends there.
HomestarRunner.net it's dot come!
Light switch rave!!
I said come on Fhqwhgads...
I remember being so obsessed with Homestar and nobody ever had any idea what I was referencing and one day on the bus to school I heard someone call someone else "crap for brains" and I thought "could it be?" And sure enough I met a fellow Homestarrunner fan.
Teen Girl Squad!
TROGDOR
Never ending sooooda.
The email, the email. what what the email.
Everybody! Everybody!
So much time trying to beat Peasant Quest.
You did a good jorb, Homestar!
Runescape
Literally playing it right now. This game has taken so much of my time
Good thing that they didn't remake the game and make it available on mobile. That'd reaaaaally hurt my productivity.
Did you remember waiting for someone to get killed so you can take their lobsters hahaha
Miniclip
YES and addictinggames
Raft wars ftw
8-Ball is still going strong.
HELI ATTACK ERRYDAY SON
Anyone remember bubble trouble?
Countless hours playing that Robot arena game, Stickman arena, runescape and club penguin (rip)
World Cup Soccer is where it’s at
The go-to for procrastinating from study
Motherload!
Neopets .... I still play sometimes. I recently realized if my account was a person, it could now vote!
I used to get my friends to fight me in the Battledome and I'd always destroy them because I would never admit how deep into Neo Pets I actually was. I used to have armor and those vegetable weapons/elixirs for fucking days.
I blame neopets for my career. I started teaching myself HTML/CSS for that site and now i'm a full time software developer with a focus in the front end.
Yes! Same. I met my closest friends there, and that was ten years ago. I'll never forget how much Neopets changed my life, I'd be a completely different person without the friends I made there.
Neopets
Stardoll
This and myscene
Can’t believe I had to scroll so far down to find this! I had a boyfriend on Stardoll. Who was actually a girl and decided to come clean about three months into our relationship. Good times
The amount of time that I spent into star doll..ugh good times.
FanFiction.Net and a lot of website games
Still spending most of my free time on ff.net, turning 25 in a month😅
Man I used to visit Fanfiction.net so much when I was younger. I still read fanfiction from time to time but I tend to prefer A03 since the Fanfiction.net site is filled with ads nowadays.
does Geocities count?
Don't forget Angelfire
MyScene/Barbie/Polly Pocket games!! Especially the My Scene dress up games. Stardoll got a lot of my time as well. There was also a website got Dollwar that died and was supposed to come back but never did. Obviously any dress up game would keep me occupied for hours.
Tumblr. Then we both changed.
Then they banned porn
This will probably date me amongst all you younguns, but Yahoo Answers.
How is babby formed?
Have you ever listened to the podcast My Brother, My Brother, and Me? They have been around almost a decade in podcast land and basically it's three brothers giving advice based on Yahoo Answers.
Digg.com....
That’s how I got here!

Somethingawful.com
There was a period, I wanna say between 2001 - 2004, where SA was making the absolute funniest content on the internet.
Do you have stairs in your house?
For me something awful was what reddit should be but it’s just not the same.
Deviantart. Would spend so much time drawing crappy digital art and writing cringe worthy journal entries
Behold the power of Fark
Hell yes. In its prime fark was amazing.
Yes! I still keep in touch with some folks from there. It was definitely better IMO for online community than Reddit. But yeah the week I started coming to Reddit was the one where I stopped going there.
The UFIA Arena. The "Florida" tag. Morans.
Ebaumsworld
How is this so far down in the thread! I spent countless hours on this site. I still sing the Schfifty Five song! WHATCHU SAY !!!
IMDB. The message boards and trivia were great.
I was so disappointed when they announced they were going to remove the message boards. I never even posted there, but I'd browse all the time every time I watched a new movie.
Kongregate!
Slashdot
+5 Insightful
Why isn't this higher! Every geek around 2000 wasted their life on Slashdot (5 digit userid checking in)
"The Spark" - they used to do quizzes and stuff - basically the type of thing you'd find on BuzzFeed now (a bit more in depth than "wHaT tYpE oF vEgEtAbLe ArE yOu??" quizzes though) which eventually became SparkNotes and did away with the quizzes.
Cool. Math. Games.
[удалено]
YTMND!
captain.... jean luc-picard.. of the U.S.S.... En-ter-prise.
YTMND basically was my middle school years. Thinking back on it, such a unique and strange concept to have a whole site dedicated to tiled gifs set to sound.
Can we all agree this website pioneered memes and how they run and evolve and grow as we know it?
It's not even Doom music
Adventure Quest. My house in the game is worth hundreds of thousands of z-tokens last I checked lol
Man I still play dragonfable sometimes to this day
I’m glad I wasn’t going to have to make the comment for AdventureQuest. I was starting to worry haha
Candystand.com
I used to play the billiards game on that site.
Cheezburger... Memebase...
nick.com and pbskids.org
pbskids.org was the best. I would always play the alien maker on Arthur
Wikipedia.
Six clicks to hitler
can't see any moshi monsters :(
omg that and animal jam were my shit!!
Zombo.com
I remember those days. I could do anything then.
Fanfiction.net
Back in 2010-2011 I remember that there was this really good Harry Potter fan fiction on fanfiction.net. I still read it from time to time.
Hamster Dance
Anyone here remember GirlsGoGames ? It was like any other gaming website and I mostly played papas pizzeria there
Came here to say this! I was more of a Papa's Pancakeria person myself though
Xanga- before MySpace and Facebook were cool
Erowid.org.
Erowid was great (still is I think, but I am old and don't visit as much). I think learning about drugs and other peoples experiences is so important before trying new drugs, so that you can dose right and have an understanding of what you are in for.
before trying any new drug i would read so much about them, i would look up countless trip reports, before i would feel comfortable taking anything new myself.
Bored.com I played the lemonade stand game for hours... Well, until someone needed to use the phone and I had to get off the internet.
Rotten
Ah, such memories from that place... hideous and nightmare-inducing, of course, but you couldn't really avert your eyes.
When Hell is full, the dead will walk the earth.
Freerice.com there’s like no way it worked but it felt awesome as a kid and I actually learnt a lot
Television Without Pity. I used to watch some tv shows just so I could read the hilarious recaps.
Myspace and Facebook. Usually talking to people I was in high school with at the time.
Joe Cartoon, Rathergood, and Newgrounds
Holy shit, I forgot all about Joe Cartoon! That site was awesome!
Does Second Life and IMVU count? As a sheltered only daughter, these games were like sneaking out to go to the club with a fake ID
AIM
TV Tropes
Pre-2000, popcap games
Literotica
Powerpets.com
http://maddox.xmission.com/
A BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER A BADGER BADGER BADGER MUSHROOM MUSHROOM!!

Cartonnetwork.com
Photobucket!! Trying to edit all my terrible pictures for Myspace
Homestead Runner! Loved Strongbad
The White Stripes fan forum (the Little Room). I had like 30,000 comments.
Notdoppler and miniclip
Anyone remember the Cartoon Network games website
Cokemusic
www.Funnyjunk.com
can't believe I had to scroll this far to see FJ!
LUE board on gamefaqs circa 2002. Those were the fucking days.
VMK.com I used to love that game.
