I’m only 18 and I remember.
On the school computers this was one of the only fun things we could do.
Windows XP?
Yup. XP was legendary.
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 think I remember my computer class teacher saying something about it to my classmates and I.
Holy fuck, this is eerily accurate!
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.
'Twas a work of art!
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!!
Far from it my dude. =)

Hold on, hold on hear me out…
Kid Pix on the Mac
Kaboom-boom!
I used to do this with Kid Pix on DOS back in the day. It was like paint but with sound effects lol.
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.
My dude I haven’t heard of kidpix in like 14years the nostalgia’s real
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.
MSPaint useless? Skill issue
Pretty big inference from almost no knowledge of what I’ve done.

Cringe
Get fucked loser
Better let Andrew Hussie know MSPaint is useless.
Never heard of him. Must be nobody.
And then one if the lines wasn’t painted all the way through and suddenly your whole image was Olive green
The horror!
Then, that older cousin teaches you about “CTRL + Z”, which you think you also had to press the + key for it to work
Or you made the black line white…
It was always Oregon Trail or Carmen San Diego for me.

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
