I remember the early days of instant messaging where people would just jump in a chatroom and ask where others were from, then sit there in awe. "HONEY, I'm talking to someone from Ireland! HONEY! Come look!"
And here I am in Ireland reading your message now
Go to bed
I made my honey look.

Interesting times we’re are coming to, folks!
I was on usenet in the 90s. It was WILD. I remember trying to explain it to my mom, and she just didn’t quite grasp it. When I told her I was talking to someone from Germany, she asked if she was gonna have to pay for that, because it was long distance. Bless her heart.
