Oldest memory of the internet?

One of mine is a vague memory from when I was a wee little lad in Montana.
It was a very vague memory of this flash game that I've tried looking for a bit in the past with some fine people on Ace Attorney Online. There was this guy in orange clothes, more of a robe if I remember correctly (then again I just gained consciousness not too long before this memory so...), trapezoid head, villager/Squidward/proboscis monkey esque nose. I think he rose into the air like some meditation levitation (DAMN I got bars), sorta sunrise-y background, a sound kinda like a Fortnite chest, and then his legs come back down, it goes back to a purplish background, and a sound of shoes hitting the ground at he lands.
This is a rough sketch of what I remember.
(drawing 1 is different bc i accidentally pressed save instead of save as so I had to redo)

The first memories I have of using the internet in general are watching Game Theory / Pokemon let's plays on YT, with MunchingOrange's LP of SoulSilver being one of my favorites. As for my first memories using the internet on a computer, the earliest one I can recall is playing Super Mario Flash / Flash 2 after searching for a Mario game (didn't have any for my DS but had heard of the franchise through YT / school), likely around 2013/2014.

I remember fighting off YaHooker bots in YaHoo! chatrooms back in the mid-90's over 56K dial-up. I was a teenager back then.

I think I used it at the library a few times, and wanted my own computer but it was just my mom and she had no money. I did however have a Sega Saturn so I went to Toys R Us and bought Netlink, an adapter to let me use internet on my Saturn. Had to pay for dialup internet too locally. Crappy as all hell it was. The adapter was $50.

I'm pretty sure your oldest memory of the internet was when it was invented

I was from a poor family, so I only got a computer in 2008.

mirc to find the latest gba pokemon roms playing the japanese ones before the western versions hit the shops, ordering ez-flash and supercards from chinese shops paying via western union, this felt so sketchy but always worked.
I used to pirate back then :gba:

, now I'm older. Off-course never found any pictures of ladies wearing less clothes.
