It took me a long, long time to learn my elbow from a hot rock.

I used to argue about D&D on Bitnet and Newsgroups for fun. Then one day, it wasn’t fun anymore. I grew up.

Time spent criticizing or arguing about your favorite things is not time spent doing them.

Things I miss about the 80’s:
* Raiders of the Lost Ark, Wrath of Khan, and Empire Strikes Back
* Video Arcades
* The Commodore 64 & Apple II
* The Police & The Cars (bands)

Things I don’t miss:
* pay phones
* racism, sexism, homophobia everywhere
* the Cold War
* smoking
* moral panics about music
