I had a second phone line installed at my parents house so I could have dialup Internet of my own, so I grew up on the Internet through the twilight of the 'golden years'. My parents had no idea what was going on, I was the only one in the household that knew anything much about computers and the Internet.

rotten.com was an interesting education.

I had a good upbringing and generally attentive parents on the whole, though, so I was already a well balanced young human.
