      LOL! So do I! Totally classic. I had to read that again and again to see if it was actually saying that!

    In 1987 we had the internet at uni, but yeah if you were living on campus you had to cross a highway and enrol in either CS or Eng’g or Psych.

    I would have thought that back when he was in college, the Internet would be strictly for science nerds and computer geeks.

    Haha, this is awesome, ‘when I was your age, we had to invent the Internet’. I’m gonna tell my kids that.

    what is equally funny is moving back into to dorms SIX YEARS after the first time you lived there and going. Wait you guys get x standard when I was in dorms… oh wait I’m only six years older

    Whoa, the present storyline has everyone freaked out about meeting characters’ parents and it turns out we already met Joyce’s. A victory for ADD!

    I’m doing a reread and I think I picked a perfect time. it’s fun looking at the three year style change on Joyce and her dad.

    Don’t Christians have rules about using God’s name as an interjection?

    My first year in college I studied programming in ForTran and BASIC. The internet was only a sci-fi concept in 1984. We didn’t even have dorms, I had to live at home and drive 20 mines to classes.

    Silly question buut are protestants allowed to use the Lord’s name in vain? Joycedad does it tice right in his first appearance.

    Hit me with your knowledge, oh mouth of truthfulness!

      Only if you consider his usage here to be taking the Lord’s name in vain. Many only classify saying “god dammit” as such. Others will tell you it depends on context. What taking His name in vain means is a subject of conversation and there is no white or black to it. It’s never spelled out.
