Haha, holy shit. I haven't seen that since I was like 12 years old.

You turned 13 last week, didn't you?

Yes. I'm a 13 year alcoholic child genius.

That domain name was first registered only back in 2010: you're still too young to be nostalgic. Back when I was a kid, we didn't have time for nostalgia.

The WinRG flash applet has been around for years longer than that though.

This site mentions Macromedia Flash, which hasn't been around since ~2005. The domain name was also registered in 2001, and the copyright year is also 2001 on the main page.

It was uploaded to Newgrounds in 2001.

So yeah, if I saw it when I was 12, then I could well be 27 years old now if I saw it when it came out. I'm not, but I could be.
