For years I’ve had it as a custom SMS/iMessage tone on my phone in the hopes of sparking a conversation with fellow early internetters. Nobody has ever paid the slightest attention but it still makes me jump sometimes. :)

They might have had a lower voice in a later version? I think it was lower in this clip: https://youtu.be/PA0x60xhusQ
Chat “stickers” aren’t quite as clever as they used to be - there’s a certain 90s whimsy missing from today’s apps and websites: https://youtu.be/pbturFbi-vc

I didn't know they made cats with embedded with an ICQ client. Makes sense though.
Wow, as soon as I read that, I heard it in my head, exactly as it was. Since I wasn't sure it was a false memory, I looked it up[1], and yeah, it was exactly the same, except in my head it was in a slightly lower voice.
Amazing. Instant audio time-travel just by reading a comment.
