    It saddens me that this is either meant to remind people of the way things were, or it teaches them a world they never knew.

    1995 me would have been excited to see what crazy stuff is on the 2025 internet. 2025 me realizes it's just a digital version of a carnival scam. Hot singles in your area is just the ring toss game. Give them your money, and then you lose.

    The 90s were just factually a better time. Biggest controversy about our president at that time was that our president got blowjobs.

          The "some reason" is that it was cool, modern, hip, and cutting edge.

          Case in point.

            And horrified at how it's done.

                It's a dot org site, by the way. The dot com was malware at one point, so just be careful.

                Edit: the dot com seems to no longer be registered, so I guess you don't have to be that careful anymore lol

                  Give this a shot maybe? I know there's some other archive collections as well you could try digging into.

                      In hear you! Man did i fucked around. Made a website with no real info, because what could i tell the world als a 12-15 year old.

                      Use notepad to write html. All different folders with home as the most important

                      It had a counter how often the site was visited (it was mostly me)

                      And the account name was .tk (?) because it was free

                          I sure do miss my Pokemon Geocities sites, with Poke Gods.
