    Is this a universal experience from the time period. How did it start. Nobody told me to do this. I just did.

      It’s the millennial equivalent of just being handed a box of crayons and being told to go nuts. It’s baked into our DNA.

    I remember drawing the Death Star and lots of TIE Fighters. One version of paint had this line tool that produced the hyperspace lines effect. Nowadays, I dabble with pixel art in Aseprite.

      I just liked to spam the dynamite tool (I think it was?) whichever one put the funny explosion effect on the screen.

        You could also freeze the explosion midway through for a cool swirly effect.

        I liked to switch the language to Spanish and do some fire remixes with the alphabet tool.

    I remember in early middle school doing this incomputerlabe after finishing our work.

    Sometimes the teacher would let us print it out 😁

    I was doing actual art off-PC, the computer was for internet and gaming. MSPaint was freaking USELESS.

        Pretty big inference from almost no knowledge of what I’ve done.

    Something fun to do is scribble like that and look for shapes or objects within the mess and erease it so whatever you saw is clear to see
