I remember getting AOL CDs in my box of apple jacks
I don’t even know my online banking password.
Password managers ftw
I’m in the same boat. One password. TO RULE THEM ALL
Well, hopefully MFA too
I remember AOL on 3.5 floppies. You could put tape over a specific hole and re-use the disk.
You could do that with any copy protected floppy. That was the little sliding tab in the corner. Tab open = read-only. Tab closed = read & write.
Oh man. In 1997 a sweet looking car Called a Plymouth Prowler came out and little tween me made my aim name, email, and eventually ebay name Prowler1234 (numbers changed).
I never thought about how totally sketch it was to be on aim and in forums with the screen name Prowler. Lol
It’s still my ebay account name.
I remember when those came out! They were so cool because they looked like a car from a video game lol
Well, at least you didn’t really like the Adidas Predator’s.
The golden age of getting lego island and roller coaster tycoon with my froot loops. Now all I get is diabetes

Changing IRQs on my modem using jumpers. Good times…
I remember getting AOL CDs fucking everywhere.
I once pulled down my pants to take a shit and a fucking AOL CD popped out of my ass crack.
I think you mean to say “coasters”, not AOL CDs.
Some of us used them as wall decorations 🤣
Like a mirror? I like that idea.

College e-mail password was a 6 digit non-changeable pin number on windows 95.
Guess what my phone lock screen pin is today.
The main thing I remember about AOL way back when is that you only got a certain amount of hours to use it per month and if you went over they started charging extra
In addition to that you had to pay for the dialup itself too…
And if your local number was busy and you dialed another, it could cost a metric shitload of money, because long-distance was apparently transmitted on the finest golden threads honed by fifth-generation artisans.
One of the weirdest generational gaps we almost never talk about is how we got to ‘of course you can talk to anyone anytime’ immediately after decades of ‘hey you wanna meet up for a burger?’ costing more than the burger.
So… who else has an aol email for his Steam account name?
ALL HAIL PinballWizard6969 !!!
the people in the comments really do be just giving their bank passwords away
Joke’s on you. We have no money in there anyway
Sounds of a door slamming shut and opening all day long.
Hah, half of one of my passwords is the username from my dialup ISP from about 98. Right in the feels.
I miss the coffee pot….
