All I have to do is say that I'm older than Google and Xbox and I get "ok boomer"

2020-12-26 22:22:22 UTC  

shit we were around pre-internet man

2020-12-26 22:22:23 UTC  

the horror

but with people getting longer life, so 30 would be considered young nowaday

2020-12-26 22:22:24 UTC  

DVDs too

2020-12-26 22:22:35 UTC  

Well before internet got big

2020-12-26 22:22:43 UTC  

Who remembers those dope ass AOL cd's

2020-12-26 22:22:44 UTC

2020-12-26 22:22:56 UTC  

You mean coasters?

2020-12-26 22:23:03 UTC  

apparently google is going through its horny teenage age <:KEK:726877368601411624> 22-ish

2020-12-26 22:23:19 UTC  

i remember the "busy" sound when someone was using the internet while you were trying to call someone

2020-12-26 22:23:26 UTC  

1/3 of the way

2020-12-26 22:23:28 UTC  

I'm pretty sure I tried to go full Xena with those CDs one time when I collected like 50 of them

2020-12-26 22:23:44 UTC  

Good ole dial up

2020-12-26 22:23:48 UTC  

meh, not gonna let you bring me down

2020-12-26 22:24:01 UTC  

I would leave the computer and internet connected all night to download dvd burning software

2020-12-26 22:24:06 UTC  

I remember when Zip drives came out thinking "what the hell do you even need a full Gigabyte of space for, that's absurd!"

2020-12-26 22:24:19 UTC  

yeah dial up lol

2020-12-26 22:24:23 UTC  

simpler times

2020-12-26 22:24:42 UTC  

I PR'd back squat yesterday though so I'll take that as still youthful

2020-12-26 22:24:54 UTC  

Here's a real throwback - waiting for the pictures to load and seeing them in low resolution and then slowly get better and better

2020-12-26 22:25:14 UTC  

Over the course of like a minute or two

2020-12-26 22:25:19 UTC  

Back when downsizing full images to thumbnail versions was more important

2020-12-26 22:25:29 UTC  

When you combat someone with more years of computer experience *thats me* *ive been on a pc longer than this kids been alive*

2020-12-26 22:25:59 UTC  

Back when you could have the 90's version of memes and share them on floppy disk

2020-12-26 22:26:17 UTC  

i put school work on floppy discs

2020-12-26 22:26:27 UTC  

I hate you so much

2020-12-26 22:26:33 UTC  

XD

2020-12-26 22:26:52 UTC  

I remember asking Jeeves about his sexual preference

2020-12-26 22:26:53 UTC  

The floppy disk cant even hold a google doc

2020-12-26 22:26:56 UTC  

lol!

2020-12-26 22:27:01 UTC  

askjeeves

2020-12-26 22:27:15 UTC  

Jeeves had the best easter eggs

2020-12-26 22:27:24 UTC  

Now we have gigabit and I'm so inconvenienced when youtube videos start buffering

2020-12-26 22:27:47 UTC  

google internet is horrible, it's like we went back in time instead of making progress

2020-12-26 22:28:00 UTC  

Google Fiber?

2020-12-26 22:28:02 UTC  

Have you ever watched a YouTube video from like the early days and sworn that it used to look way better?

2020-12-26 22:28:03 UTC  

yeah

2020-12-26 22:28:13 UTC  

Hell yeah all the time

2020-12-26 22:28:16 UTC
