I feel that way about their whole family.

Ain’t this the girl that represented OJ in a previous life.

No. It’s not. It’s the woman who married the lady that used to be married to the guy that defended OJ. The guy who defended OJ is dead - Robert Kardashian.

You can go back to Counterstrike for that. Was a free mod for half life, then one day you needed Steam to play it. It’s how Steam was released and part of why there was such massive uptake early. Biggest game in the world at the time.

Those were the days. I never thought installing mp3 player software would give me a rootkit, but it did……

Everywhere that speaks English, except the US spells it this way, afaik. NZ, Aus, Can, UK, South Africa, India…. The US way is the regional variance.

NZ, Australia as well. Basically everywhere except the US.

Is linking a Rick roll a meme? I thought memes were reused images with text, guessing the definition is shifting. I saw someone calling numa numa a meme the other day.

That’s true. I was implying they haven’t heard of the first four - don’t even know they exist. Not so much that they had them out of order.

A band I like called colour haze has its first self titled album as the 6th or 8th. I forget.

I’ve met people, REAL people, who think the black album is their first.

I mean, it’s still just a bait and switch. I never really got why doing it with Rick Astley was groundbreaking.

It was over ICQ, IRC or msn messenger back when all I had was dialup. A lot of modern internet culture seems to be appropriated from the kind of old web ne’er-do-wells I hung out with on IRC back in the day. Didn’t think to keep records tbh. The original ‘rickroll’ was goatse or lemon party (nsfw, tbh I would not google those if you don’t know what they are).

I do remember getting Rick rolled with Never gonna give you up by a counter strike clan team member over ventrilo back in 2005. It must be 2004-05 because the clan I was in disbanded after Oct. 2005.

I was def getting Rick rolled before that.

He sold a majority stake in the Mavs. That’ll be where most of the tax bill comes from. Wants to use the money for something else. Still working with the team operationally.

This was the photo in my local newspaper when it happened. Source: local paper boy. (Was greyscale)

Australians are the Americans of Oceania and south east Asia. Most of the Americans that come here are the thoughtful ones so it’s a bit diff. Imagine it’s similar in Europe.

It’s true in NZ for a number of insurers. Probably true elsewhere

It really whips the llamas ass

Already am mate. Already am. They’re playing early chills, pearl jam and the occasional nirvana track like something in the way these days. I’m just waiting for Foo fighters and Queens of the Stone Age to become classic rock. They’re only a couple of years away.

Those guys, blind melon and kyuss are the 3 bands from the 90s the kids who are rehashing my teenage years as retro are sleeping on.
