Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This is awesome. And trippy. [link] You watch this weird video for a minute and then you end up hallucinating for a 10 or 20 seconds.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I first used the Internet (the actual capital-I Internet) in 1987.

I am going to try my damndest to not let Emeline have.
Good luck. You think you have avoided the dreaded thong until your child goes shopping on her own and forgets to move her laundry and this piece of string falls on the floor and then you realize it is not just a piece of string.

I tried to watch tommyrot's link, but I don't have that much uninturrupeted time all at once.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I was born in 1961 and don't feel any connection to Boomers.
1962 here. I've always been told I'm a Boomer (1946-1964), but I never felt like it. I was also part of "the last big high school class." Which meant the schools were too small for us, but the school board wouldn't do anything because the problem would solve itself when we left.

I remember using an insanely low baud rate to connect to CompuServe (uphill! in the snow! both ways!). joins the cane-shaking chorus
Seriously! (And I'm just barely the tail end of Gen-X -- Wikipedia aside, most people consider 1978 to be Gen-Y/Millenial/whatever.) But these kids today...
Two things I am going to try my damndest to not let Emeline have.
The nice thing about having a boy is there's a good chance I will never have to tell D "No, you may not wear a thong to school." Not 100%, but the odds are at least in my favor. I'm just hoping those shoes with the wheels on them go out of style before he learns to walk, because they scare the crap out of me.
