and you had to pay each time you connected to it, and having to listen to that irritating dial up tone? when 50 megs was considered an insanely large download? when if you wanted to watch a video online you had to download it first? when you couldnt talk on the phone and be online at the same time? SCREW THOSE DAYS!

So, Graniteoctopus, how do you feel, what with being unfrozen after ten years and all that?

I liked the compuserve and AOL discs they sent out you'd have this little pile of free internet you'd get like sixty free hours at a time but would have to make an STD call so your parents would go fucking mental when they got the phone bill
Bring those days back I loved having a music library that consisted of 10 half-downloaded songs and some pixellated video of a chap chopping off his finger with a chisel, which wasn't what you expected when you clicked on it. Good times
Oh and bring back real player and pop-up ads too they were just the best

And there was those guys I hit up for steamy porn chat on IRC and found out they thought they were chakats in real life, with chakat fursuits that required two people to fit in them, usually naked (sort of like 2/3 of a Siamese triplet)...
look, i can find a reason to shoehorn vaginas into this thread too BUT I'M BEING NICE HERE

No. Everyone should be forced to spend their first year on the Internet on dial-up.
That would teach those bitches R-E-S-P-E-C-T!

Please do. I don't see any reason this thread shouldn't be deleted.
