On Thursdays, many social media users post nostalgic pictures from their past. This trend is known as Throwback Thursday, or TBT.
Origin of TBT
The first known use of Throwback Thursday was in 2006 on the blog NiceKicks.com, by author Matt Halfhill. NiceKicks.com's Throwback Thursdays featured pictures and write-ups of old sneakers.
Whether from Halfhill's site or somewhere else, the phrase Throwback Thursday eventually migrated to Twitter. There, users began posting weekly Throwback Thursday pictures alongside the #TBT hashtag. TBT is now also prevalent on Instagram and Facebook, especially among certain influencers.
