1995 - A Fucktard's Story
 

Ok, I got my computer, I have the internet (thanks AT&T) and I'm surfin... I get porn in the search results on the old free Yahoo... I think "Hella Yeah! I was searching for SkyDiving but What the fuck?!" and I begin browsing the links....

I get these pages with "webmasters click here" at the bottom and I'm like "I'm a damned good programmer, but a webmaster? Nah!" so I move on...

Then one day I clicked on one of those links and I was immediately promised the ability to make money on the internet selling porn, AND it wasn't gonna cost me a dime to do it. I'm thinking "YEAH RIGHT!" and I backtrack out of there.

I kick myself daily for not being aware enough to get in back "In The Day".

Anyone else have similar stories, or am I the sole fucktard ever to have been through this?

where's the :kickmehard emoticon???

just finished writing an article about that very thing.

get out of my head! :1orglaugh

actually, I never really surfered porn too much because my 33k modem took too long to load pages, etc. Then one day I actually read a spam to my AOL account.

Stayed working with the guy for 6 years.

I love you too much to do that. Was soooo awesome meeting you in vegas this past Jan. If it weren't for Mishi being with me (forever) you'd be in trouble, you hottie.

Too funny though that we seem to be sharing a braincell or two. :D

i somehow wound up at Cybererotica.com, i saw the 'Webmasters Make Money' link and clicked and found a messageboard, read through the posts, saw this guy named Fantasyman's posts and this guy named Serge who kept coming back on the board and baiting the FantasyMan character like Bugs Bunny does his enemies - so I followed the Serge character over to YNOT and started reading it.

give mishi a big old kiss for me!

I discovered altavista.com the second time I checked my first web site's logs and noticed referers from there. As it happened, they had gone online the same month I did.

while you're at it, give her a real nice slow one, with a lot of tongue, and tell her it is from me. . . . . you'll thank me in the morning. :Graucho

SLUT!!!!!!!!!!!

I was only trying to help.

my parents first got the net in january 97, within 6 months i had begun to attempt to make porn sites. didn't go so well at first because i had no clue what i was doing. i tought myself html, java, cgi ect and within another 6 months was making enough to move out.

That's the worst lie I heard today. In 97 there was no Java per-se and Netscape 3 didn't support enough hahahahahahahahahaha to bother with. Netscape 4 came out in summer of 1997 but people didn't start upgrading till like winter of 1997. Please explain what kind of Java programming you were doing then?

My first experience of the net was in 95... I thought it was like a version of CB radio for yuppies... didn't bother again untill 99.

Story of my fucking life... always a day late and a dollar short!

fuck it :)

well like i said 6 months later, which was the summer and maybe i wasn't quite right in saying i tought myself java, tho i did learn more latter on, at the time it was just mouseovers and crap.

Let me pull out some thumbworn books I have in my library. [list=1][*]"The Java Tutorial, Object-Oriented Programming for the Internet" by Mary Campione and Kathy Walrath.[*]"The Java Programming Language" by Ken Arnold and James Gosling[*]"Teach yourself Java in 21 Days" by Laura Lemay and Charles L. Perkins[*]"Using HTML 3.2, JAVA 1.1 and CGI" by Eric Ladd and Jim O'Donnell[/list=1]
They all have some things in common, which is the reason I mention them. Not only were they all published in 1996, but I purchased them at the same time in April of '97.

And what does that prove? Just because you don't have the foresight to prepare yourself, doesn't mean others are as ill-equipped.

Oh, and in answer to your question, the kind of Java programming we were doing then was called "applets". Look it up if you really want to sound like you know what you're talking about.
