Back in the day the internet was a civil place full of professional, trustworthy and thoughtful people. Much fun was had - then AOL gave its customers access to the internet (not just their own tiny eco-system) and suddenly the internet was a much dumber and uncivil place.

Y’know, the Rifftrax version of the Chuck Norris classic Breaker! Breaker! is available on Amazon Prime right now…

CB really didn’t hit it stride until the mid 70’s.
