i will never forget trying to download a full dbz movie on my 28.8k modem only for the d/l to stop and the file to be corrupted at 98 percent

shyt was like 400 mb and i can't even remember how many god damn hours i spent on it


finding out about d/l managers that could resume d/ls was the greatest thing ever


also cuz you could go on those free porn clip sites and load up a queue of like 30-40 clips that were 5 seconds long each

When that fukking download would get to 98% and you think it was over a few minutes later after getting some cereal, come back, and realize someone picked up that fukking phone, it was the worst and most irritating feeling known to man You toss your hands up like a coach who watches his QB throw a interception and lose the game at the Superbowl.

Who remembers Juno lol. My parents didn't want to pay for AOL anymore so we used the free version of Juno with the always present advertisement bar lol.

When I learned how to turn off the sound of the modem

That was like the beginning for me. When I started truly learning how to unlock the secrets of the internet and shyt

Warez...hacked porn sites...

God we've come a long way. The kids of today and tomorrow will never know. I remember having to DL a 1 Gig file overnight because if I did it during day I'd catch hell cause my parents would be missing phone calls and shyt.

Sneaking downstairs to play Lineage and Ragnarok at 1 in the morning knowing I got school @ 8:40

When I got my first PC in college...shyt was like when Neo realized he was The One in the first Matrix

Used to play that all the time

I remember the 30 second porn clips sites used to post. I would find one clip and then search for hours looking for like part 2 and 3. then after finally finding them I would pull all 3 up in windows media and made my own movie haha. then I found out about the program that connects video files. ahh the good old days

Did anyone ever fuk with Compuserve or Prodigy?

They looked even back then compared to AOL. Did they offer anything better? I only knew one friend who had Prodigy but his dad never let him use it.
