The internet used to be an awesome place for outcasts and nerds.

Eternal September

Eternal September or the September that never ended[1] is Usenet slang for a period beginning around 1993 [2] when Internet service providers including Delphi[2] began offering Usenet access to many new users. The flood of new users overwhelmed the existing culture for online forums and the ability to enforce existing norms. AOL followed with their Usenet gateway service in March, 1994.[3] Since then, the popularity of the Internet has led to a constant stream of new users. Hence, from the early Usenet point of view, the influx of new users in September 1993 never ended.
