Man, total nostalgia trip. I actually remember every single one of those references. I've only really been active on the net for the last decade or so, but I was reading Darkwing Duck and Animaniacs fanfic on the web back when people used the term "Information Superhighway" in all seriousness. And I would get so mad at the people who put all those animated GIFs on their pages, because they would take, like half an hour to load. Somewhere, I still have extremely low quality WAVs of various cartoon theme songs, which are each under a megabyte and each one took an entire afternoon of blocking our phone line to download.
*shakes cane* "You kids get offa my lawn!"
