Guy Who Tweeted He Was 'Chillin' In 2006 Is Finally Done Chillin

by Connor Toole

On December 22, 2006, the world was treated to a Ben Stiller movie about inanimate objects coming to life and a Twitter user cool enough to snag the name @dub took to the platform to let the world know what he was up to.

Chillin — robert (@dub) December 22, 2006

It sounded like a pretty chill time.

There was never any followup to the original tweet, and it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume he had simply chilled too hard. That's how you get hypothermia. I've seen it happen a few times before.

However, last night the Internet sensed something -- a presence it had not felt since, well, 2006.

Jus got done chillin — robert (@dub) June 16, 2015
I didn't even realise I was chillin for 8 years — robert (@dub) June 16, 2015

It was definitely a pretty chill time.
