I don’t think my vote matters much at the higher level but there is a lot BS happening locally so I voted. I double masked and wore gloves. I kept all verbal communication to head nods or a simple yes. It's honestly amazing a lot of us were on AIM and just sat there waiting for people to sign on while we kept busy on the internet. Hearing the door open and seeing a friend just come online was magical. xD 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only downside was dating. “Why hasn’t she responded to the IM? She is online. I can see her. Do I IM her again?” The old dating insecurities. Don’t miss those times.

I also think AIM should have been foreshadowing for FB statuses when people used their away messages to vent about something or tell jokes. I remember some guy had an away msg like, "man nobody talk to me im so fucking pissed i could punch a hole in the wall right now so just don't talk to me right now, so pissed," and I'm like, "Then why are you online?" That became the "FB status that talks vaguely about something negative in hopes multiple people ask what's wrong." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither one get laid much relative to the higher sexed demos (marching band, arts/theatre students, any food service place near campus).

To be fair the band and theatre students set the bar so high it’s impossible for anyone to compare to them can vouch for food service though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
