Hmm... 1? To my knowledge, the actual internet wasn't widespread until around 95 alongside Windows 95. Before then, it was UseNet that people used.

I used Windows 3.1 in 1996, when I first got on the Internet.

The lie: I started using non-dialup Internet about 2001. Never looked back :)

IDK, while dialup internet was horrendously slow, the dialing tones that came with it give me a sense of nostalgia. I can still remember them to this day, and actually kinda miss it. ...until I remember how long just loading an image took. Not to mention all the other problems, such as being bumped off whenever a call came in, or someone attempted to use the phone.

Lol. Nope. He's actually gold with a black nose.

The lie is 3. He isn't trained to attack people, but he would threaten them and get help.

1. I had a black and gray tabby who was the son of a ginger cat.

2. I had a gray Persian lady cat who was my best friend during dark times.

3. I has a Siamese. He has difficulty with transitions....and really wasn’t too friendly.

1. Because ginger cats are almost always male. (unless the ginger cat was its father).
