Fuck 1st thing I did with with AOL dial up was look up Pam Anderson's Playboy spread. Other than that AIM and trolling on chatrooms.

 

[FierceRedBelt]

Trolling Usenet karate groups obviously. Just kidding, I swear.

picking up the phone and accidentally kicking my dad offline

using "warez" hacking software to download key loggers so when my parents signed in, I got their passwords, and then removed the parental controls from my account.

"Do you like cum shots or just cum inside?"

"I like seeing it on my boobs"

Aww, the memories. Thanks, TS.

Never had dialup. I admit I started using the internet later than most, but I think in general cable was more common in Canada quicker than some other countries.

Up here without cable you never got more than a few channels, so cable, in general was adopted quicker here.

Napster

Constantly looking around for that damn Robo-Cat whenever I started the connection.

Never found it.
I blamed the Japanese for years........until I found all their delicious porn.
Now my family wonders why I act so "strange" whenever having calamari.

I didn't have the internet growing up, but would use it at friends houses. I remember trolling AOL chat rooms and getting blue screened, getting fatality codes for Mortal Kombat II, and this...

Playing the first quake online with my neighbor. Connection was hard to get and shitty but when it worked it was awesome

We got it around the same time I started playing guitar so I would print out pages and pages of guitar tabs and my parents would get pissed at me using up all the ink ribbon.

I was also the guy who had the plug on new music my friends had never heard. There was like one record store in our town that stocked anything that wasn't really popular so if that guy didn't get it in nobody knew about it. Being the first guy in our group that had internet at home I ended up introducing everyone to a bunch of new bands, or hunting down tracks from new albums before the stores had them, which was a pretty cool role to have.

the intensity of dial up fap

 

[Xhizors]

mIRC. It still exists, but is a lot less popular now and I just don't use it anymore.

figuring out how to delete internet history on the family computer.

I am almost 100% sure that the first internet search I ever did in my life was Pam Anderson.
