There was a time in my life—gawd fucking dammit I hate to admit it, it's like having a tooth pulled for some reason—when I thought computers were COOL. I pored over computer catalogues the same way I'd read Astronomy magazine or the Edmund Scientific catalogue. Remember when catalogues were how you entertained yourself once?

This sort of thing just makes me wanna shrivel up and die. Ooh wow the PENTIUM! Surely this will make my life better! Just think of how much pure rot I underwent on Pentium computers in one school lab or another, playing games—really bad games, mostly, like DOOM II.
