    It is crazy how fast time goes by, especially if you deal with some kind of trauma. I swear, my divorce was almost a decade ago and I’ve been with my current wife almost as long. Feels like a year maybe. It just slips through your fingers.

    I was around 20 when that pic started circulating. I was definitely addicted to counter-strike at that time.

      Oh you said it. I am still struggling with the fact Covid lockdown began six years ago. Or that my kids are almost the age I was when they were born.

      The LANs I went to tended to be Rainbow Six, Unreal Tournament, and Quake 3, and then Aliens vs. Predator 2000. That fuckin’ ping sound, before we all had headsets, coming out of three speakers at once, was wild.
