 When we were in the computer lab back in elementary school (5-6th grade) this was all we did

I used to love that site

EDIT-- anyone used to be in a wrestling 'Dice Fed'? 

You'd go in a chatroom and say a wrestling move and your opponent would as well and then both of you would type '//roll' and the chatroom would roll 2 dice for you and whoever had the higher roll would get like 10 or 15 points. And when you'd get to 45-50 you could do your 'special move' and/or pin and whoever you were against had to top your roll within 3 tries or they lost 

. IDK how I remembered all that but damn I used to go mad hard with these. Pretty dope concept though whoever came up with it 

.

I found NT way back when I was in like 8th Grade, I remember bringing early pics of those shiny leather red and blue T-Mac 2's, the all star editions.. thought I was the man showin dudes my 'exclusive' pics of shoes. 

AIM/Myspace was dope as hell when they were in their prime. 100x better than FB, Twitter, etc. 

Getting a Dreamcast and playing NBA 2k for the first time in absolute awe of the graphics and gameplay. 

Starcraft, Tribes, Runescape, CS/Condition Zero [don't even wana know how many hours I wasted playing this game]

Downloading the top 10 plays of the week in the NBA, and it taking like 10 hours to complete. I'd always be dl'ing stuff before I went to sleep and wake up and be pumped up.

I had AOL for the longestt time, so when I finally got that DSL and could be on the internet AND not have to hear my family complain about me being online was a hell of a feeling 

. 

Anyone ever play these?.. Y'all are lucky there's no online multiplayer, I'd be destroyin' with Pablo Sanchez and Keisha Phillips 

I feel like I could go on forever, the Internet itself has had a much bigger impact on my life than I originally though.

Internet FTW

-The first time I looked up cheat codes

-Endless pr0n pics
-DragonBall X...I went thru a phase of looking at cartoon pr0n when I was a kid. It got to the point my mom encouraged me to look at real people

-Hearing that door open on AOL letting you know someone signed in
-Hours and hours of instant messaging
-Looking up CAW's for No Mercy and SMACKDOWN 2!

-The internet buzz for WWF Smackdown: Just Bring It was crazy.

man I miss those simple @+$ days

-Aol chat rooms

I remember when I found out how to send chicks roses

SWAG.....man thinking back to it I didn't get any pictures of chicks really so it was no telling who I REALLY was talking to sometimes.

-Wrestling E-Feds

...I used to be in a bunch of these...back when wrestling was at its peak these were fun as hell if they were ran right.

-Kazaa  brought death to my moms computer...I downloaded mad porn on that joint

....I thought she was going to find out what I was looking... I remember when she took it to the shop and brought it back home and I asked her what they said was the problem and she was just like "some viruses"...I was like

...she never said anything to me if she knew but I remember after that she told me not to download anything without asking her first

Having the house to yourself and on the internet when you were younger....FAP-A-THON

EDIT-You know what's crazy tho....back then in the chat rooms and $#$% we never thought to talk to chicks near us so we could smash we always talked to chicks who were on the other side of the country

^^^^ *DEAD* back in 8th grAde i used to download pron pix and save em on a flash drive for a rainy day. I had soo many like at least 1000 pix. My mom found it and used it to save her documents since she had a flash drive that was the same color. I come home from school devestated that my pron collection was missing. I find it but its not in the usual spot i hid it. I plug it in and everything got deleted. Hours later my mom comes home asking where did i get those pix. Im like the internet. She says i dont wanna see that stuff again. In my mind i was like well duh thats why i hid it in the first place. If my mom found my pron collection nowadays her head would explode.

Napster being free when it first came out.
I think i killed 2 computers as a kid just randomly downloading pr0n and music
Pablo Sanchez in Back Yard Baseball

And what everyone else said about AOL.  The old some one picks up the landline and you get kicked off the internet

WWF Raw.  Writing down all the finishing moves and trying to own my friends.  Would be walking around the ring throwing sweet chin music all day (stone cold would still kick out after it smh)

-I remember back in the day when I would trade "gifs" of girls with other people on AOL. The trick was getting them to trade first, and enticing them with a rare pic like "I got the chick from The Mask if you want to trade first".

-Meeting a girl in a "singles room" and then inviting her to chat outside the room

and sometimes

(forever alone) Getting an email from them the next day would be

-AOL sports on the Welcome Page to check fantasy football news

-The old arguments with family members when they picked up the phone and you asked them not to

-Snood
