Scouring out my emails, I came across this gem when I realised I still wanted proof I got my youtube fix almost 8 years ago.
I posted this on a video of the demolition of a couple cooling towers at a nearby decommissioned NPP.

I shouldn't have been allowed on the internet. How the fuck did you guys put up with me for 3 years before that?

Haha. Doesn't everyone start out liek that?

The only reason I have to want to look back at my dark past is to see whether I was as grammar-proper as I seem to remember. I probably wasn't.

TWHL: A finishing school for arseholes :P

We all have our regrets regarding our early, multiple shitposts to online communities; don't let anyone tell you differently :)

This is why we should all give new users some slack learning the way of things, though I know it can be tough(and painful) remembering we were the same way once.

Everybody has a funny history.

Looks to me you weren't that bad. The fact is that a lot of people joined this site in their early teen years. I also was on other forums and I grew up with some of them immediately after my first connection to the internet. But I adapted and learned to communicate.

Everyone starts out like that. For some reason.

C Striker, I was 9 when I joined TWHL haha

Nah I know everybody had their idiotic 12 year old "hurdur" years on the internet, it's just funny to look back on them and think "jesus was I really that bad?".

Just goes to show how much you've matured I guess

I was 21.

And I never understood why would ANYONE change Windows to Comic Sans.

After being reminded of early member embarrassment, I decided to try and find the first thing I ever posted.
I believe it was this.
Surprisingly not embarrassing, although some of my posts I found along the way certainly were.

Also, looking through the old threads I found this.*

I find myself wondering whether such a thread nowadays would have the same reaction.

*NSFW since one of the three images in that thread that still even loads is NSFW
