I put on my robe and wizard hat.
That shit was peak comedy when I was a kid
Was? It still is!
True
FYI: Rhinoceruses don’t play games. They f*cking charge your ass.

Thanks to MSN Messenger for making me develop touch typing skills.
AIM for me
One of my friends’ notification tone is the “uh oh”
I can still hear the MSN message sound in my head
And the original Steam chat sound
If you rummage through the steam folder, the old sound is still there!
StarCraft. Learn to type really quickly when you’re coordinating a massive assault or calling for reinforcements.
WinMX. That is something I didn’t hear in a long time.
bbs dial up and busy signal
“No, you can’t get online, your grandmother is on the phone.”
they’ve never heard of usenet (from 1980) which is still active.
How active is it still, aside from Linux isos?
i dont use it but i understand its drastically more than lemmy.
they figure out how to federate with usenet and we’ll have a nerd apocalypse
AIM
MS COMIC CHAT MOTHERFUCKER! DO YOU USE IT?!
Also, what’s your icq number?
Comic Chat was awesome. I miss it. Along with chatrooms in general.
nah
not even a slight chance kids today know what msn messenger is.
I’m 15. That kid enough for you?
Hold on. Let me play some mp3s I got off Napster on my winamp while I browse the world wide Web on my Netscape.
“uh oh!”
I was laughing early thinking this was depicting the future, where the “funny old man gibberish” was the Roblox “oof!” because a Zoomer was getting punched lmao.
For a sec it felt like a deep commentary on how the flow of time is always cruel. BUT ANYWAY more on topic:
I both miss the Yahoo! Messenger days and also feel incredibly weirded out knowing how like, nothing was encrypted back then. That’s something I simply can’t imagine not caring about now. :|
Something this generation of kids will sadly never experience?
Unreal Tournament
Oh man, still my favourite FPS of all time. Titanfall 2 comes close but nothing will beat Unreal Tournament.
KILLING SPREE
Anyone remember the Yahoo fight rooms?
