--- Quote from: Kugai on 03 Dec 2011, 15:44 ---I think part of the dropoff in Spam comes fact that some of it may be someone trying what they think is a 'Hot, New Idea' - only to find it thoroughly blocked because someone tried that 10 or so years ago and everybody is protected against it or spots it for what it is.
I also think a lot more people Online are a lot more savvy about it these days than they were back when the 'Net was virtually a Wild West.

Is it weird I kind of miss those days? Everything was all exciting and new and everybody was making godawful geocities pages with animated gif dividers and pages of shitty poetry and all the photos they could cram on a page (entitled gallery 1, gallery 2) and guestbooks. Everybody had guestbooks. I can't even remember the last time I've seen a guestbook. It was like we were all stumbling around in the dark but we were together goddammit.
(I speak as a layperson with no real computer knowledge who was in high school when AOL was a relatively affordable internet connection - I'm sure many here were doing more amazing things but for me it was all shiny and fantastical lol. DIAL UP.)

...Men were real men, women were real women, and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri...

Ancient porn; slightly NSFW

You have no idea how many of these got printed on the university lab's line printer...
We're talking late 70's, early 80's. Those were the days...

My ma still has a file folder of office humor mimeographed and passed around during her days as an office girl in the 1950s.
Good heavens, Ma ...!
Internet's just a newer medium, folks.
SomeCanadianWeirdo:
As far as Hannelore's height goes I would imagine she slouches a lot given her less than confident personality.
