I enjoyed this nostalgic look back at one of my first favorite websites. Johnson perfectly articulates what was so cool about it. My first job out of college was at a law firm in Chicago. The job was very boring and I was perennially hungover and exhausted, so when I wasn’t napping on the toilet, I spent a ridiculous amount of time surreptitiously watching HR videos in my cubicle, quickly minimizing the tab whenever anyone floated up behind me.

This sounds like a cranky old person thing to say, but the internet just isn’t this fun anymore.

I still say “The Cheat is grounded!” to myself quite a lot.
