I am talking about 1989, 1MB (that’s Megabits, children, look it up) it was a hell of a lot of memory and you was lucky to have it. You and your fancy dancy gigabits and terabits and high-speed downloads and color monitors. In my my day we didn’t need color, hell, we didn’t even need megabits, kilobits was just as good! And downloads! Hell, there was no such thing as downloads, if you was a PC user you had to buy magazines that published codes in a computer language called BASIC that you had to manually type into the computer, that’s right TYPE! Then if we wanted to complain about computers, politics or share images, we didn’t have no fucking internet, we had a travel outside, that’s right we went outdoors, to a local electronic store, or if we were lucky we a friend who knew about computers and bitch and whined there. Now everyone shuts themselves into their fucking rooms in the basement of their parents house, eating ho-hos, drinking Diet Dr. Pepper and mask their idiocy behind an anonymous handle. Back in the day you have to character, or at least a certain amount of restraint, because if you talked trash around like you yahoos do around here, you get your stupid mouth busted, and than you would learn something, not like now, where you fuckers retain a firm grasp on to your fucking idiotic ideas because no ones kicking your stupid lazy ass. You fat fucking punks have it so fucking easy, motherfuckers.
um, put the brakes on there, turbo-geezer- they weren’t making fun of the amount of memory.
The accepted verbalage is “Meg.” Mag is either ammo, or toilet literature.
Oh, and by the way? The only remotely “principled” part of your, quite frankly, stupid rant was the bit about people using anonymity to spout flame wars. The problem with that idea is that the *only* difference between people now and people then is the access to anonymity. It wasn’t nobility or idealism, it was just a lack of resources- anyone back then would have behaved the same given the opportunity- so get off your ridiculous version of a high horse and stop being the MCS version of a scrawny old guy in his underwear yelling at kids about rock and roll.
you silly old guy,
you don’t get it- even if i did live with my mom- hell, even if i was an obese nacho shoving slob, you can’t bring anything close enough to where i live to offend me. Seriously- you could describe me to a “T” and ridicule away without any hits landing.
I am curious about how you figure you weren’t ranting about the internet. The equation goes like this: “Internet+people=anonymous rants with no accountability” Without the internet, you just have normal people. As for the first bit, you were making an argument for first gen programming languages and the great outdoors. That’s either a troll talking, or an old man bitching about the good old days when music came from big bands and this crazy noise you call rock and roll doesn’t count.
Also, if you look at the comments before your rant, you went a little nuts for simple ribbing over the wrong spelling.
But,feel free to drop some knowledge as to what i missed.
Something tells me not to ever be in front of these guys at the same time.
I actually played The Prince of Persia on my Mac Plus (it had a whole fucking mag of memory you bitches), it was a great game.
a mag?…. you give mac fans a bad name
What’s a mag?

@eiza, you are actually clueless, aren’t you.
i guess so.
either you’re trolling,
or you’re actually ranting about the internet on the internet.
but go ahead- clue me in
It was neither, but I guess some of it must have hit to close to home for you take personal offense. What living with mom?

Somebody give him a dollar so he can go buy a clue…
I’ll give him a dollar just to shut the fuck up.
i’ll need at least ten.
although it might just be easier for you to simply not click on the comments for this post. . .
Smart boy, got a mind like a steel trap – full of mice.
Please, this steel trap caters exclusively to Chinchilla
Gor’s Rant was beautiful. Maybe you need to have hair on your nuts to understand…
And I had the original Prince of Persia for the NES.
Fucking sweet.
how was his rant beautiful? It was “we had to walk uphill to school in the snow with a warm potato to keep frostbite away” with the f-bomb dropped in.
so wheres the twins? giddy?
ROFLMAO @... Gor… I’m copying that, if you don’t mind…
My pleasure, sorry for the typos, but it was off the cuff and from the heart.
