    What, this is considered old now? Old memes aren’t even images, they’re just ASCII art. Also HTTPS wasn’t a thing back then. Everything on the web transferred in cleartext, which is pretty crazy from today’s perspective.

        Back in… (counts on fingers)… early 90s… I used to take typewriter classes in Junior High, and we would do ascii art right before holiday breaks.

      Man, I still remember the days before firesheep when you could get up to all kinds of fuckery if you knew what you were doing.

      Also, completely baffled me that someone thought it was a good idea to only use HTTPS for auth and leave the secure cookie traveling in the clear.
