When and how did you meet the Internet?

[Otto]

I still remember my mother freaking out when she found me looking at Anarchist Cookbook textfiles on some shitty BBS a hundred years ago. I also remember my dad, who was a former hippie, taking me aside and handing me a paperback copy of the real thing, telling me not to let my mother see it.

Also, in regard to the vending machine thing: I wish the kids at my school had been that intelligent. The hick kids in my town just violently shook the machines, or sometimes banged on the window with rocks and homemade clubs. It was like fucking Lord Of the Flies High. I was so fucking happy to transfer to a boarding school.
