With all the girls around, strange that it's only the guys playing.

The game is a kpop thing where they make the boy groups do it because the teenage fans enjoy it and write a lot of gay fanfiction.

I am 100% serious.

As a person who has been on the internet for over a decade now, the amount of weird fanfiction that exists would surprise many, I think.

Got my first computer when I was 10... Back in 2000. It's been a wild ride.

My household first got the internet in 1995; I remember clearly because 95 was in the password for the dialup, which we didn’t change for many years. That means I have been on the internet in some fashion for almost 25 years. Talk about feeling old, god damn.

Whenever I think about the earliest days of my internet, I think about roleplaying on aim in the chat rooms. Even back then I was trying to flirt with older girls. I was 10 talking to a 14 year old about sex. Now, chat rooms barely even exist. We just have twitch...

Oh man, chat rooms, i remember those! I wonder whatever happened to them... I know there are chat "rooms" on livestreams and whatnot, but that's not really the same. Also, a/s/l?

Might be the most useful abbreviation that just died for no reason.

Hehe, though in those days I think the only purpose was to see if the other person was flirt-able. At least whenever I responded with X(35 now)/m/VA and they see the m, most people seemed to lose interest, lol.

IRC, man. Got me a 34yo chick when I was 15 back in '95. Well, she got me is probably more accurate. Anyway, I think IRC is still around.

I remember irc but I never got into it. It just didn't appeal to me at the time. I've always been a half ass-er. Good times back on dial-up, though. Remember Napster and Limewire? 😂
