My Generation: (leaps out) WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE…
When I was your age, we had to hand-code our blogs, hosted on servers we maintained ourselves, in our dorm rooms, in the snow. And we LIKED IT THAT WAY.Â
Nothing was formatted! Anglefire was our only hope of personal expression and we used midi music versions of Savage Garden songs to show how we felt! Pages took minutes to load! Chatrooms were unregulated and haphazard and there were NO PMs or DMs, everything was public!
*shakes fist*
There was no place to easily upload video content, and if you managed it, people had to download it – there was no streaming video!

Henry V.
Little Shop of Horrors.
Sleeping Beauty, Milo & Otis, Homeward Bound, basically every Disney movie from Beauty and the Beast until Tarzan.
A Sunday Afternoon in Crystal Tokyo is up on Patreon! :D
