I did some pretty embarrassing things in 1997, but it all pales in comparison to what the internet was doing in 1997. Back then, the internet was basically five chat rooms, Hamster Dance and a bulletin board for fake Star Trek nudes. How did we not all kill ourselves?
For everyone's sake, I think we should agree to pretend the internet was invented in 2006. I, for one, won't be able to someday look my grandchildren in the eye and tell them I once was content with sub-1080p furry porn.

Ridiculous. The internet was prolific by 97, maybe not for your average jackass but we’ve been trading music,movies etc since at least 92.

You're a friggin tard. Too cool for your own shoes eh? I see your '92 file trading and raise you an '84 300 baud modem.

I think you need to gain a sense of humor. I'm pretty sure he was referring to "furry porn" as commented by Matt Tobey right under the video and not the video itself.

protect the children??!! by whom??? …ze germans?? my god you people…if YOU are offended by this, take YOUR children completely off the internet, and do everyone a favor and stay away as well. let all the rest of the world be realistic, down to earth and aware.
Wow, I'm more impressed that he got the windows version of aol to run on his mac. No mean task back then.
Oh god, I can still hear the Hamsters…

Always ATM before ATDT.
I build websites for a living and still deal with people who use 10-year-old versions of Internet Explorer, Compuserve, etc, despite newer versions being completely free. I'm thinking I'll send all of them this clip and see if they get it. God, I hope they do… please… make them understand…!
