I remember this cat video I liked.

🎶 Cat , I'm a kitty cat, and I dance dance dance. And I dance dance dance. 🎵

And I wanted to make it my ring tone. Back when phones were just starting to let you have custom tones.

And I sent the creator an email and asked if I could have a mp3. And he responded and sent it and I was like.

"Omg. This famous guy who made this video with like 100,000 views talked to me!"

I remember bragging to my friends that this famous video creator talked to me online.

Simpler times.

Now it's 24 million views On YouTube. I'm pretty sure I messaged them on black sheep or some other video site that was popular around 2006.

    I literally bragged breathlessly about exchanging a few words with the klingon actor from the new star trek (he's a nice fellow) to my wife. Honestly, the way I lit up I wonder if that's what made her want to watch SNW then TNG, like back to back

    She enjoyed SNW but TNG she is fucking loving. Her crush on riker is almost as bad as mine

    I had an anthropology tutor who is a renowned Trekkie

    She is mentioned by name

    There was a discussion about gender fluidity and she was so happy when the example of Dax came up as an example of falling for a person can remain while their body changes

    That was almost thirty years ago, but I still remember her
