You arrived here in 2006.
I've been here since 2001.
Explain for the class how it is that you remember events before your time here.
Plus you can't spell worth a damn but we don't expect much of you.
That explains everything.....LOL!
For historical reference, the first popular "All Your Base Are Belong to Us" parody, and most likely the first one at all, was uploaded to Newgrounds.com Feb 16, 2001 by "Bad_CRC" (WARNING, the site has NSFW content).
This was when Freerepublic was accesed on dial up modems using jury wiring to phone jacks. Yes, My dad, "the Widget", jury rigged stuff like that.
I miss ASH, ESCHOIR and that hottie, JustaDumbBlonde. Oh, and the Great Schism of 2000 - salad days
This was always one of my favorites. Though I remember the background music and narration being a little different back in the early 00s.

Ah the good old days!
OwenKellogg aka The "Newashman" aka ASH aka ReduxAsh aka at least five other screen names is a hoaxer who has been banned from posting to this forum. Not once, but many times. He will be banned again soon.
HE WILL, WHEN CHALLENGED, PRETEND INNOCENCE. His use of multiple aliases is, itself a hoax. He is an electronic crasher who is here AGAINST THE EXPRESS WISHES OF THE OWNER OF THIS FORUM.
Attempting to engage him in debate plays into his hands. He is here to create dissent and to disrupt the Free Republic. That is his pattern and the reason his posting privileges have been banned.
Please DO NOT respond in any way to him.
Netscape was where it was at back in the day. I don’t think they even had blocked sites in the beginning. You could access any sites out there.
mumblegummer, typing one handed since 2001.
Clean your screen.
One of my coworkers had the volume maxed out when she opened the Hamsterdance. If I had jumped any higher, I would have been stuck in the ceiling tiles.
Never, ever gave a thought to visiting a Quiznos sub shop after watching their first commercial which completely creeped me out. Whoever came up with that commercial should have been fired.
There were plenty of chemtrail and conspiracy threads.
I remember seeing CDs hung out as deterrents for crows up and down highway 101 when the first wineries were being put in. They apparently worked.
1998 is my birthday on FR.
Sounded better than the Super Bowl half time show.
Yep, and you're late picking it up. Imma quit saving it for you.
Ash was a Real Bad Dude!

I’d take a walk down memory
Lane but then I’d take a
Left and get Lost.
