I was about 15 playing Doom on my own phone line modem (Packard Bell 486SX50, 14.4k) and talking to my nerd friends on my parents line.  It was some early multiplayer chat.  

Funny thing about the phone line was that it was listed as "teen phone".  I always got random phone calls from people just calling to see what's up, if I was cool, want to hang out, etc.  That was some early phone book social media bullshit.  It seemed like half the time it was some mean cholo bitches though that just wanted to talk chit.

I miss playing MegaWar on Compuserve using my Apple II+ and 300 baud modem. It never failed that some fuckstick would call me and disconnect my modem.

Too bad there were not AT commands to disable such things...

Ah yes, the miss spent time of youth. Leisure Suit Larry, Flight Sim, Zork... Hell, Pong.

Leisure Suit Larry made my 13 year old pants go crazy.
