I miss LAN parties, everyone coming over lugging their desktops and CRT monitors, having an 8-port 10gps Ethernet hub (not switch), staying up late playing 4v4 StarCraft maps and Diablo 2 games at max capacity.
I’m a pizza delivery driver and three weeks ago I delivered to a party of 11-13 year olds who had a bunch of monitors and consoles together in a living room having a Halo LAN party. In the year of our Lord 2026. I thought I’d stepped into the past

Good times.

11-13? So born in 2015-2013? So then those would be millennials’ kids, gen alpha.
The millennials loved LANs so much, they gave it to their kids. That’s lovely.
Did you at least stay for a round of CTF on Beaver Creek?
Unfortunately it was the beginning of dinner rush and I need money
There is hope with the young 'uns
I know man. The copious amount of pop, Doritos/Cheetos and pizza we’d consume… We were kings.
