They were busy worrying about whether we were jerking off in our rooms. They should have been paying attention to the fucked up internet sites we were on >__>. They should have checked to make sure we weren't seeing Tub Girl

I didnt use the Internet until I got home from the military in 1999 and I was already 23 years old at the time. Not all of us grew up with the Internet. There are quite a few older posters on this site.

I used a piece of art that had the word suicide in it as a profile picture on yahoo messenger when I was a kid my grandad found out and next thing I know my mom is all over my ass about it. I didn't have any connections to my family on the internet and I know they didn't even know my username. My grandad was just very tech savvy. I still don't know how he found it. I just liked the artwork I tried editing out the word suicide but it changed the file format and yahoo wouldn't take it so I went with the original.

My brother used his Webcam to record something once to send to someone and my grandad found that shit too.

my mom freaked out on me when she found that "ass n titties" newgrounds video in my history.
she would not have survived if she had ever found my porn folder.
let alone been exposed to shit like tubgirl.

it didn't really phase me tbh. shock videos have always gotten a collective meh from me or at best an "oh damn lol that's crazy"

They used to Teach Science in school.

When it came to computers he was self taught. A lot of people in his Gen where clueless when it came to computers. Like my grandmother couldn't even figure out how to turn one on.

My grandad had a book shelfs worth of books on how to operate computers. He built his own operating system using ms dos on a Tandy 2000.

And btw they taught science when I went to school most kids just don't pay attention these days. But school did not teach anything about computers in boomers gen

Now with my grandad I'm talking about a real boomer. I assume most people here are the same Gen as me and likely talking about Gen xers .

Hell they where specifically the ones known for not trusting anyone over 30.

I actually had to take some stupid class for work on the differences between gens. I laughed at that one cause they are all over 30 now by a long shot.

Oh I got cha'.
I just had Enginers of one sort or another on both sides of the family.
On the Italian side, my Grandfather was an engineer in WWII.
He went on to work as a local, but national plant where he was a troubleshooter.
On my other side, look up The Campbell Diagram. Every Turbo uses it to some degree.

But I guess I am referring to the Cold War Space Race era, when schools made Science seem more important.

It was actually my Grandfather who made sure my brothers and I got a PC....A Vic 20, before the C64.
We didn't have much, but we did have that.

Both of my parents were boomers, my dad was decent with Computers, but my mother didn't make it long enough to ever really get good with them. Though I am sure she could have.

What amazes me is all that self taught intelligence. Like said built his own OS for a Tandy 2000. But at like 6 I got unto his files cause he made his password my name. I didn't know what a password was so I just entered my name.

Hehe, I should have said, my Granddad made his own Morris Radio system.
I grew up around that, and he taught me as much as he could. So it's in the blood.

Also, Haha, on The Password.
