It was a collection of silly quotes from IRC channels everywhere, many of which dated back to the 90s. It was rarely ever updated in the 2010s, but now, the URL no longer resolves.

Last capture was July 2023. https://web.archive.org/web/20230601000000*/bash.org

EDIT Someone archived all the quotes on the Internet Archive.

Oh man, I forgot how much I used to read bash.

We used to read it as kids when we went over our internet quota for the week and it was the only thing that still loaded

How old were you then? What was your internet quota? It's so interesting to hear how different age groups or demographics interacted with the same content.

A teenager, so early to mid 2000s. I can't remember what the quota was other than a couple of dodgy limewire albums and computer aids. And dad getting pissed when we pretty much bricked his computer
