I literally cannot believe I lived the first 13 or so years of my life without any Internet.

We got it when We were fifteen, so We're about in the same boat. And Our house was like the last one within five counties to be connected. We forget that sometimes, too. So really, it shouldn't have been all that surprising, but it's just not something We have to think about usually.

See that one guy just sitting in his chair, a little perplexed?

He's probably thinking "Is this that effort thing everyone is always going on about? Don't see the appeal."

'Cause that's what We'd be doing.

he was mesmerized and you know it....

this is what was going through his mind...

I didn't have any stable access whatsoever to computers let alone this new thing called 'internet' until college. We are talking BBS level stuff at best too. :D I still vaguely miss all the 'alt.whatever.yourmom.shitpost' stuff where if you really wanted to express an opinion in pictures, you had to be an ASCII art god. :D:D:D

Internet has made me more social. Mainly because when I'm done with all you idiots, I can turn off the computer. :D And having internet has also made it so much more easier to find new things to learn without having to bug a librarian over and over and over again for material that they either don't have or don't want to get.

We were surprisingly unproductive.

Unfortunately, when our internet goes down, so do our phones, email and remote access.  So, internet down days are almost guaranteed to be completely unproductive, which only makes the lack of internet fun time even worse.
