Wait, those still exist? Since the Second Great Depression started in 2008, interest rates in the US have just been getting lower and lower. 0.01% is typical.

I like the auto-updating layouts of AB 2.x. No need to waste so much storage space on old layouts or be embarrassed at old sig contents.

I don't think StapleButter was in the community during the I1 era...

I wonder if negative bet exploits worked on any online casinos. I do have a C64 BASIC craps game that lets you make negative bets. Which I guess is like betting don't pass, except with a player advantage.

Yeah. I wonder how that's done. I know the post number is stored with each post, but what about stuff like EXP?

Personally I think it's awesome when I knew someone famous before they got famous Like with Anya, who is now a published author. I can casually say "Oh, I've known the author for 12 years now..."

Purple and black dress (specifically this one; yes, that is me) with black leggings, black socks. And no coat, it was warm enough I didn't need one.

This post also doesn't fit the retro theme.

62 today. I love spring weather.

Spring pollen counts, on the other hand, can die in a fire. If I got paid by the sneeze, I'd be rich.

Hee hee, mismatching socks. I've been known to wear them in winter around the apartment, just to keep my feet warm. Like if I can't find matching ones because I've been too lazy to do the laundry.

Google existed then. They were just a search engine and not a massive spying corporation, but they were still around

My first username was "The Millionaire", which was a school nickname at the time (since I was obsessed with Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? and had a fake million-dollar bill). For Acmlm's I went with "comm128" at first, which stands for Commodore 128 (a computer I had that's actually older than I am), then switched to Banedon because I thought "comm128" was a dumb name.

I bought some ice cream today. Lactose-free vanilla (I'm somewhat lactose intolerant).

I'd rather have slow healthcare (like in the UK, Canada, etc.) than no healthcare at all because I can't afford it (US). I had to spend $5000 on one trip to the ER a few years ago.

Yeah. Although I switched away from Banedon mostly because it had a bad reputation, since I was angry and stupid in the old days and had a lot of enemies.

Then I switched my name again along with my gender~

Yes, Canada is a state in the country of Europe, which borders the countries of Asia and Africa. Which are countries. What's a continent?

Yeah. The US tends to hate its poor, unfortunately.

Ooh, what game was that from?

Some people would bring their Game Boys to school, although technically they weren't allowed. But I'd see them in their desks or whatever.

I used to turn layouts off, being on slow dialup and all. I was impatient.

Also, on some of the really old layouts it was hard to tell what part was the post text. They were so full of stuff.

I first played Crystalis only a few years ago (we didn't have the NES cart) and saw Mesia, and I thought of you. "Hey, isn't that some Acmlmer?"

Yep, that's my style~

'Twas some little board, only around for maybe a month, but it's where I got my first staff position ever. Unfortunately I also first met Xkeeper there...

Eh, I was making fun of the surprisingly large number of people who think Europe is a country.

Like this game show contestant.
