Comments on: Kids These Days https://whynow.dumka.us/2006/07/13/kids-these-days/ On-line Opinion Magazine...OK, it's a blog Fri, 14 Jul 2006 15:22:37 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Bryan https://whynow.dumka.us/2006/07/13/kids-these-days/comment-page-1/#comment-16779 Fri, 14 Jul 2006 15:22:37 +0000 http://whynow.dumka.us/2006/07/13/kids-these-days/#comment-16779 In the era of 10 and 20 megabyte hard disks and 300 to 9600 baud modems, life got “very interesting” when a “war” was set off. They were the genesis of spam filters and a lot of blocking technology.

That reminds me of the old Prairie Home Companion bumper sticker some 20+ years ago that listed (as best I remember) the call sign of a Wisconsin radio station that carried the show, followed by the description, “Wisconsin’s Dairy Air.”

They don’t make flame wars like they used to. These days, there are too many good Godwin-fearing people out there to have a real, old-fashioned flame war. I can’t say I’m sorry about that; I don’t miss ’em.

I wish people would learn what terms mean before they use them.

Apparently there is a very active thread on one of the diaries, and, at times, the comments have a dairy-air about them. It has the passion and excitement of a PC v. Mac thread. Faux News is trying to make something out of it, because, apparently, they have never seen a comment thread before.
