“Dial-up, Anyone? Anyone?”

This week for Sunday Confessionals, Mindlovesmisery’s Menagerie would like you to create about this sentence : “The last time we were online”.

“The last time we were online, the internet was so slow that a sloth could have delivered our messages faster. It was that era when we all had AOL email addresses, and you knew it was time to get off the computer when someone in the house needed to use the phone. We were sending each other chain emails that promised good luck if forwarded to ten friends, and our social media was limited to updating our MSN Messenger status. Oh, the thrill of discovering the latest dancing baby GIF! Now, we laugh at those times, sharing memes faster than light and streaming videos without a buffer in sight. Ah, the good ole’ days of dial-up nostalgia!” Don’t get me started with the good ole’ times of MySpace and with the ability to customize your page and add music. MySpace, oh how I miss thee.
