8. I wasn't even on the internet back then.
I had to wait until flat screens came along.

The monitors back then gave me a headache, really.

28. I started lurking in May or June of '01
Usually to check out the Top 10 Idiots List, but only skimmed the forums. Gradually, they drew me in more and more.

32. Addiction to DU perhaps
That explains why I keep coming back, because there is no other rational reason.
