>>824Ended up giving that website a try, theoldnet.com. Must be getting ddosed because man is it slow. Barely loads at all.
They really don't want us to see what things were like before the "appification" of the net.

I remember back before my family got their first computer, I had to walk all the way down several blocks to the YMCA for internet access. Used to look up pics for manly anime like Sailor Moon, Cardcaptor Sakura, Pokemon, and Hamtaro. The first website I remember visiting regularly was specifically for posting pics for Tenchi Muyo. So simple, so nice, back then search engines were worth a shit and took you exactly to where you wanted to be. Then we got a pc and my cousin got me into chat rooms. Roleplayed like a loser but good golly was it stupid fun. Yahoo Messenger and Talk City were the big two. The first chat room I was ever in was a Pokemon roleplay site. I was a Psyduck. We did Pokemon battles. Absolutely retarded. So god damn retarded. In high school I landed an online gf for all of like a year or so until I started seeing somebody irl. I still have some pics of her. Nothing crazy. I'm happy I got over all of that, but, at the same time, it was fun. Stupid fun retarded nonsense. Got into webcomics like 8-bit Theater, Questionable Content, some weird comic about a penguin. I remember coming across Murdoc's Greatest Page in the Universe and thinking it was so edgy and cool. I'm not sure what happened between that time and finding 4chan. I know I got into it ass backwards by finding Boxxy first, seeing the weird text wars in her replies, and following those spazzes back to the imageboard. A few years later, boom, 4chon. How times flies.
