It reminds me of the old Pathmark No Frills line

Me too, it reminds me of getting kicked off the internet because someone needed to make a phone call.

In that case, the URL should be oppositelock.geocities.com or the equally amusing oppositelock.angelfire.com

We’d have to toss out the white background for some sort of awful bitmap which makes the site unreadable and make sure to have an unstoppable MIDI file blast at 1000% volume once the site has loaded. Maybe some Comic Sans and a few gifs for good measure.

That's all assuming these products were around in '95-'96 when our household first got internet.

Oh yeah. Back when all computers, monitors, and printers came in one color: wall paper paste

Any way we can make the cursor turn into a tiny car, too?

“What’s for dinner?”

“Meat.”

“What kind of meat?”

“Potted meat.”

Damn straight. I wouldn’t even want to read the label.

I thought it was meh, but have you ever read anything by Dan Brown?

Yes, the products were around in the mid 90s.

LOL

you know I SHOULD be saying, worst book I’ve ever read. I’ve never read Moby Dick and have no interest.

Pretty much the first thing I thought of.

I didn’t think it was as great as many said it was; a lot of those “fuck the establishment” types loved this book in high school, but I never really got it (despite still feeling like that today).

I think the worst I’ve ever read is Jane Eyre. I hated that book and every page was a struggle. The next most hated is one called Freak the Mighty, which I hated because I read it in 9th grade and I felt it was an elementary school book at best, and even then it’d be for one of the lower grades. What really made me hate it is some friends from other schools, possibly even other classes, read Animal Farm instead. I love Animal Farm, although I’m not sure if that feeling can withstand the pummeling of the over-analyzing that tends to be done in English classes.

Other things I remember from this time:

Orbitz - sugar water with colourful turds floating around in it. I liked it at the time, although I’m sure I’d hate it now.

Pepsi transitioned from that classic red/white/blue stripe can to the blue thing we have today. I still like that classic can, very much like the no frills livery seen here.

Mountain Dew kept advertising their “wide-mouth” can so you can slam more of that citrusy sugar into your body. I think all cans are like this now, I do vaguely remember cans having narrower openings.

I believe there were pizza hut and taco bell Doritos around this time. I really liked those ones, only ones I really like these days are Cool Ranch (can eat a bag of those) whereas the other flavours I won’t eat nearly as much.
