The act of resurfacing old, embarassing, teen angst selfies, pictures, and statuses of people on Facebook by commenting on their timeline content from years before. The act of backstalking pulls old content to the newsfeed for enjoyment in the present. The best way to formulate a backstalk comment is to sarcastically act as if the status is from the present when clearly it is not and mimic the tone of the status or picture.
