Things the Younger Generation Will Never Understand

[JuanMena]

Yeah, I remember those days using MSN Messenger (with the Messenger Plus! add-on). Spent long hours behind the screen just typing and sending weird recorded messages to my friends.

It was seen as the successor to mIRC and ICQ back in the day (late 90's/early 2000's).

There will not be any other service compared to MSN.
Good times, so ashamed young ones will never understand why we're so nostalgic about 2005 and early times.

That's true! FB Messenger isn't even close to matching the capabilities of MSN Messenger. But maybe the young generation would also find what we considered "funny stuff" back in the day boring today, what is a real shame.

I really miss those times!

When I was a kid, we did. Don't know what happened to it, or all our laser discs.

The younger generation will still recognise the save icon for some time to come.
