Crazy shit. Such a good advertisement.














But IE probably still sucks.

Saw if on FB and thought it was really cool. IE is good for one thing though and that's downloading other browsers.

Damn, I come to realise how much imagination you had to have to play with 90's toys. Now pleasure is dictated to you through interactive script code on an electrical device. I guess that is what IE wanted, make it work through the power of imagination while getting nothing done and being spied on by advertisement firms.

1984?..fuck you huffington post.

"Microsoft has released a new advert for Internet Explorer which might just make you cry - if you were born between 1984 and 1988, have a taste for nostalgia and turn the music up really loud."

We have had the fucking coolest lives of any humans that have ever lived ever. We have seen so much growth and the rise of the internet. We have so much knowledge at the tips our fingers.

I just won't use IE to access it.

I will be sad when I have kids and they have these electronic toys. If I say I played outside with snow and sticks as a kid, they'll just say "dad that wasn't even in this century."

After your time? You turned 4 in 2000. 2000's were your time.


I'm 89 but I didn't grow up in the 80s.
