In honor of the death of Reddit (I hope), let’s harken back to a simpler time, perhaps when we old-timers were migrating from BBS chatting to Slashdot to Reddit. My favorite “oldie” is “The Website Is Down,” from 2009-ish. It perfectly captures what IT support is like.

What’s your fave?

    GameFAQs video game cheats.

    I remember walking to the library specifically to look up video game cheats on GameFAQs, printing them out on dozens of pieces of paper so I could fold them up and keep them in the appropriate game cases.

    I’d go so often and get so much exercise from it, my parents didn’t even bother limiting my video game time.
