Once upon a time, I had a 6-digit ICQ number.

That's some OG shit there! I still remember my number. It was an 8 digit haha

Yeah, I'd give anything to remember the number. I'd make all my friends get accounts, just to flex.

Have a 7-digit one and just found out it still works.

I had one contact left on it called "brokenprincess" and it says she was last seen "a long time ago".

Creepy shit. Just in time for Halloween.
