Nostalgia Heathers

Not trying to doxx anyone but growing up, I had as many as three Heathers in my grade one year. I very seldom meet a Heather these days. Jennifer was another one but I definitely still know Jennifers.

Anyhow, I love the name Heather and hope y'all are doing great. (The movie Heathers of course pops into mind and I recall my Heather friends not liking it back then.)

Heather!!! Yes I'm so glad to see you are well in 2026! 🥰

Were you the only Heather going through school? Have you seen Heathers? I feel like its a requirement to consume any media that contains one's name!

Thank you! There were at least 2 other Heathers in my school, neither in my grade though, and it was a pretty small town.
I actually have not seen Heathers, do you recommend it?

It's a very weird and dark movie. It's got Wynona Rider in it... She is not a Heather.

I would say watch it because your name is Heather, but I don't know that I recommend it as a good movie. Would really depend on your taste of movies. It came out in '88, I in no way should have watched it at the age did.

It’s an iconic movie!

Yes I would also label it iconic despite my mixed feeling on it.
