Yeah, for decades I’ve heard that theory too. I’ve always thought of it as an urban myth.

Where’s my Xanga peeps at?

As a child in the 90s, I remember Saturday and Sunday afternoons being incredibly boring if we didn’t go out. TV was shit (still is), and on rainy afternoons you were basically locked at home.

By the late 90s, at age 10, with no internet access in my county, I was mapping ways to beat the Water Temple in Ocarina of Time. I remember scheming for hours, using Farore’s Wind to take me to the beginning of the dungeon and jumping to the platform on the 2nd floor. This way, I was not using the only key I had on the middle pillar, which is what almost everyone got stuck on.

But yeah, I remember the tail-end of this at that time and starting a whole new game to try this out. And it worked. Still proud of 10 year old me. It’s interesting but I hadn’t felt boredom in a really long time.

El Salvador was the other one aside from Ecuador and Panamá.

Puerto Rico is a us Territory and uses USD. Costa Rica has their own currency with cute sloths and monkeys on their notes.

More like forced into it by these multiple “once-in-a-lifetime” economic crisis.

I had read this in another thread, but radio was one of the first (if not first) media form to be entshittified. Decades before we even had a term for it.

Kristen Bell was in Assassin’s Creed II and that was 14 years ago… Fuck I feel old.

But still, it’s been slowly happening for quite a while

Was just playing F-Zero 99. It’s a lot of fun. But holy shit is it hard to win a race.

Appreciate it, bud!
