By the 2000s we had cable - and I had already migrated more to online entertainment.
Though, I did get a goodly bit of that Yugioh & Pokemon as well. I'm in that weird generational gap that's not quite millennial, but not quite X.
Born in the 80's?
.... wish I had cable internet by the 2000s. Don't think I even had DSL till like '06 :/
Mid, yeah.
yea same
She hawt.
Nah, we had dial up at the time.
that's a dude
Ye olde AOL.
Yea i had dial up in the middle of nowhere, so it was super slow.
Instant cosplay, just dye the helmet yellow
lol
same laucivol. I didn't get the last of most of my favorite cartoons because I found a new passion. sleeping in on Saturday.
Ah, we were in the NW 'burbs of Chicago so.. had infrastructure.
Meanwhile we were just lower middle class
is that a character?
and couldn't afford it
till then
I don't even know what cosplay that would be
lol
Celty from Durarara
I just like cat-ear helmets
Eh, we were middle class, but had different priorities. XD
Actually, and I'm loathe to admit it, we lived in a trailer park those years.
It was a priority for us 'cause our dialup was mooching off of my dad's work connection and we couldn't use it at the same time as his boss.
I had a PC since like, 93-94. I wanted a Sega CD, Dad wanted to splurge on a PC, so we bought Flight Sim 94 with a stick. lol
kek. this one is more a funny one from Russia
buuut
priority don't matter if you literally can't afford it
lol
oh and that's to say nothing of the issue of tying up the landline
lol yea, dial up was only used in the evening for me too.
