  Thirty years ago was a turning point in office culture. AOL Instant Messenger came out. I noticed that all my employees were using it. Actual work came to a standstill. I was outraged – this struck me as time theft – but decided it would be better to allow the work ethic to re-emerge organically rather than act like a dictatorial central planner. Some network computer consultant came in and wanted to set everyone up with a centrally controlled machine over which only one machine would have administrative rights. I said no and essentially had everyone use a personal computer instead. All these years, I've always insisted on owning my own machine in every work environment, even forwarding all work email to a single account managed by me personally. Apparently I was a real outlier here. As it turns out, the centralizers won corporate culture completely. Today every decent-sized company demands that all employees use office machines, building a huge and thick wall between personal and company time. No more social media. No more app control. No more texting except for office texts and platforms. Forget work/life balance. On company time and in company space, there is only the company. Companies today won't even let employees check personal email on office machines. It's become extreme. I'm actually shocked by this in retrospect. I had bet that individualism would triumph – everyone would own their own and cooperate with others but in a decentralized way – but I was completely wrong. Now offices are surveillance-based police states and you have to sneak look at your phone even to have a life outside of work. This is something I never would have predicted. It's no wonder everyone hates work these days.

  AOL user 927 was 100% a little girl with some kind of problem. I would spend hours looking at horrific birth defects and gay porn and then play dressup games for hours when i was a kid. Like it’s SO obvious that was just some mentally ill child ngl

  @disturbed13 Same score for me. No AOL address. Even though I've sent faxes, I've never done it myself. Usually the school secretary does it for me. Never had a waterbed, but I tried out my uncle's while house sitting.

  This is all just a repeat of 1990s Christian apologetics on message boards and AOL chats. The kids don't realize that some of us have been experiencing the internet for a couple decades now (at least), and know where to draw lines. I don't think people like Gavin or James White understand this either because they didn't experience the internet in its earliest forms. It's not just "mean Catholics and Orthodox." It's just that the internet (mostly just Twitter and social media) attracts the best and worst of any given group. Focus on producing quality apologetics and rise above the mosh pits. If you're honest, you may actually appreciate the arguments from the other positions more.

  @JimmyChonga454 @Lightshiner14 I don't think you actually understand what happened to WCW and ECW. WCW had debt from Turner, bad contracts, and AOL didn't want wrestling. ECW went out of business because Paul Heyman had a gambling problem. Vince McMahon gave Heyman personal loans to keep ECW a float. Austin didn't kill anyone. Bischoff and Heyman had him and didn't do anything with him.
