I remember back in around ‘97 when everybody was starting to first get the internet… I was with a friend of mine at some other kid’s house, and up to this point, you know, I had heard about “The information super-highway” (remember that term?) but never really seen it. And like, how most people would be like, “Wow this technology will redefine communication and give access to an exponentially growing database of knowledge and information and drastically impact society blah blah blah”—never even crossed my mind— it was just “Holy ****… We can **** with people all day on this… Let’s go into one of those chat room things and **** people off.”

and truth be told, it needed to happen, because people were (and frequently remain) waaaaaayy to ****ing serious on the net.
