We can pretend to be shocked but every single one of us was on a porn forum by the time we were 15.

Those forums weren't on the NYSE though.

What we experienced growing up 20 years ago pales in comparison to the degenerate fever dreams endlessly going on in Roblox today.

Yeah fucked up shit existed then, difference is any random can be exposed to seriously fucked up shit in a few clicks with ease. Add in how tied to social media everything is and that fucked up shit is a endless rabbit hole from one niche to the other.

If anything remember what you could see was heavily limited by internet speeds. Now all that brain rot is streamed at gigabit speeds. People can browse in a few hours what would take a year or more in the 90s. I'll leave it at that before this gets too off topic.

Dumb me. At 15 I had a car and a license and parents that went out of town for long weekends often. Oh and a girlfriend. Almost 40 years ago, talked to her not long ago. Things were good and simple back then.

The local news had the daily stock price of companies that had business locally and their industry. Things have changed.

I don't know that there were porn forums when I was 15.
There would have been binaries on usenet when I was 15, but they would just have been titty pics or playboy rips. Movies didn't appear on the internet for a while, and who could have watched it on 28.8? There was no web browsers until about the time I finished high school.

No, we were not on porn forums at 15.
