    Older than 9/11, but not by enough to remember much more than the stories about going balls to the walls on acting assimilated to the country I was living in so we wouldn’t stand out as Americans because the consulate was worried some locals might try taking hostages to support the terrorists.

    TVs have a UHF switch so I can finally watch more channels. I really hate putting tinfoil on the rabbit ears and opening the window to sometimes get these new channels though, but they work better if I hold onto the antenna. It’s hard to see what I’m watching if I do this, but at least I can mostly hear what they’re saying, and the picture is dark anyway, so even if I could see at this angle, it would be too dark and snowy.

    My first coding class was Cobol and we used punch-cards.

    (Side story, nothing strikes a feeling of dread more than the sound of cards being shuffled behind you.)

    I remember watching One Piece Skypiea arc on TV (german broadcast) in the morning, cartoon network kids next door, ATLA, Danny Phantom.
    My first console was the Nintendo DS and I played ‘Finding Nemo’ on the OG xbox.
