So im pretty impressed but Im pretty sure that one discover card dial up was around in 1995 if not aol. I actually only really started encountering the internet in 1993 but I was in college in a college pretty heavily into that type of stuff. I feel like her 15 year old self is drawn like a grade schooler and I know with my own wife we have this disconect where if I talk about things from being a kid I mostly mean grade school and maybe junior high were as she groups everything high school and before as kid. Maybe even post high school. On the other hand when my father passed away I saw pictures of myself from high school and was sorta blown away. I looked like that at that age??!!! There were skinnier kids than me in high school but they numbered in the like the single digits and we had a large high school. I know I have been called bean pole at that time, not super often, but it happened. Still I was like, oh man, I was a bean pole.

        omg the meaning of trolling just completely got lost. I mean I hated it but I worked at a university and a student was telling me trolling was doing anything sorta annoying to a person like (he demonstrated pushing my shoulder while walking) so. And im like no, it is when you make comments here and there that sends a groups conversations into argument and chaos. putin may be the ultimate troll. Even wikipedia does not quite have it right as it says inflammatory comments but can even be just encouraging someone in the group with views that cause the argument or leading a conversation toward it.
