You think millennials read newspapers? We are the first digital native generation. In fact, we saw the internet growing up while we grew up ourselves

Remember the internet before Facebook and Instagram? Good times. It was all Flash Games and p... Uhm, videos

I still know my ICQ number. Back when all instant messagers had open protocols and you could use one open source client for all of them.

I'm still slightly mad that everyone wanted to use AIM instead of ICQ, even though icq was better. It had offline messaging and you could change your display name, neither of which aim supported.

Anyone younger than like 30 probably has no idea that those were noteworthy features at one time. You could only send someone a message if they were actively connected at the same time as you.

I regret forgetting mine. I know it was 3965....... Something. But that's as far as I know for sure.

No I don't think we do. I sure as hell don't. Yes indeed, we are, and we did. That's why I think the whole comic is bullshit, like wtf is this whole thing? Feels like some Gen X or earlier is trying out this web comic thing. I don't even know.

Growing up? I think you mean "getting drained of any creativity or energy with age."
