Pretty sure it was in middle school, so we are talking like 98-99. It was in the computer lab. Other kids were playing gerbils on the mac while I was surfing I think a world factbook site, I remember clicking on Japan because I was obsessed with catching DBZ on the morning cartoon blocks before toonami was a thing. Seeing girls in kimonos and the usual fluff about ancient honorable Nippon and Tokyo. What about you?

First website I visited was altavista.digital.com. It was a search engine that didn’t even have its own site. My first search was for Metallica, my favorite band at the time.

Pretty sure mine was this too. But not entirely sure anymore.
