I want to add to the list of things that shouldn’t exist anymore. And to be fair, I’ll keep it in the forum of technology.

3. Beepers. I saw one the other day. What the fuck? Get a cellphone for christ’s sake. If you really want to emulate that beeper feel, set the cell to vibrate and make people fucking text message you. Beepers are one of those things that should’ve died in the 90s, like Green Day.

4. Geocities. Do I really need to speak on this? Angelfire, Tripod, Homestead — they all eventually stopped trying to proliferate. But geocities? They’re alive and kicking. They’re begging to survive. And they’ll forever be a sandbox for newbie HTML lameasses to play with their shitty javascripts they found on hotscripts.com.

5. Hi5.com. Just give up. Seriously. You lost.

To be fair, I’ll list one thing that technology gave us that I will forever appreciate:

Google image searching. How else would I be able to pull up a random picture of a fat burly man in a sailor moon outfit?
