  • The Daily Prompt – No. 312

    Do you remember life before the internet?

    Sure. I remember using typewriters to write papers and Metro cards to get on the bus. I had gotten my first personal CD player, which was a hand-me-down from boy. But it was such a grand time.

    Im talking about high school by the way, which seems so long ago but it really isn’t.

    So this was apparently No. 53 in the series but was published today. The title will be updated to reflect its place in the daily prompt archives.

    Do you remember life before the internet?

    Of course! I was young. The internet didn’t really become a thing for me until I got to college. That’s when I signed up for my first email account.

    Before then, I remember that the main form of digital interaction was through my TV. We used to watch the news and sitcoms at night. My family and I would have weeknight dinners from a takeout restaurant. It was pretty cool.

    However, I also had homework and curfews. It wasn’t as if I was living a complete, autonomous existence. They weren’t the prototypical “good ol’ days.”
