@Undead Mockingbird ya at like 3am it was basically just other kids that snuck onto their parents computers

It was the first time I trolled anyone online.

YES

before anyone ever said troll

aye

and we were just assholes lol

and peopel didn't say "click" instead of navigate

TBH I think part of it is that the internet became such a serious place

i fucking hate it when the media says "just click this URL"

Or, more accurately, dominated by serious places

Click was always as in mouse click

Memes like this I think no longer really reflect things

Aha. Internet source code is odd

id software and John Carmack specifically released the full source for Quake.

I always wanted to know how it works.
