If you've got nothing nice to say, go the fuck away. I'm instantly blocking shitheads who want to poke fun at this for their own amusement. You lead sad little lives.

I am probably the last of the group of people that were some of the early adopters of the internet. The internet didn't fully become public and more accessible until 1994, I didn't start using the internet until 1996. I am nearing 30 years old on the internet by next year. People from my group, we've seen it all by this point.

We've seen the internet at it's infancy, as it developed, the explosion of it's usage, the dot com bubble burst, Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Flash's death and the ongoing enshittification of the internet today as we know it.

I also used to bring a micci of rye with me on these runs. I generally run with my running backpack, and I’d pull out the rye and take a shot and pull out a smoke and light it, all as im running, and keep going. It always got at least one laugh and one “wtf” from the other runners.
