Don't act like a d-bag. Most kids before 1998 didn't even have internet at home, and most kids in the 90's were console gamers. Not PC.

Also, no, I'm not full of shit. US census data shows 18% of households had the internet in 1997, and if you don't remember that most kids and teens around were gaming on consoles then you either lived under a rock, or you're on here right now lying about your age.
