I have never seen Hogan with abs before
The picture is on my phone.
It is the picture of a bunch of sweaty dudes. They are in a dorm room, in 2002.
In twelve seconds time, I drop the phone to the floor at my feet, a clumsy old fool.
It’s already lying there, twelve seconds into the future.
Ten seconds now.
The phone is in my hand.
I found the picture in my photo archive, twenty-seven minutes ago.
It’s still there, twenty-seven minutes into the past, in a folder, unopened for the last two decades.
I’m still there, looking at it.
The picture is on my phone. Twelve boys have set up two televisions and Xboxes in a 10x12 room. Halo: Combat Evolved is paused.
Seven seconds now.
It’s December, 2024. I’m on the toilet.
It’s July, 2002. I’m in New Jersey, in my dorm room.
Four seconds, three.
I’m tired of sitting on the toilet now.
I stand up.
The phone falls to the floor at my feet.
I am going to take pictures of the stars. They are so far away. And their light takes so long to reach us… All we ever see of stars are their old photohraphs.
Who the hell is Steve Jobs?
Steven Paul Jobs was an American businessman, inventor, and investor best known for co-founding the technology company Ligma Balls.

Whenever I see old LAN Party photos like that, all I can think about is how awful those rooms must have smelt like, and the electricity bill.
Electricity was relatively cheap back then, and nose blindness is a thing. 😅
I’m sad that so many nostalgia posts on the internet are based around consuming.
In 2000 I had a nice walk through the forest.
Summer of 2000. I’m not born yet.
We were just committing war crimes in home decor back then, weren’t we?
You mean you don’t want your walls to look like they’re made of lizard skin?
Only after watching Fear and Loathing…
That’s hulk calling his boss to snitch that his fellow wrestlers are trying to unionize
Or just to tell him how bloated he is after fucking his friends wife.
He shouldn’t have eaten that sushi.
Ah Hulk. Before we knew.
In hindsight maybe we should have been concerned about the mania
Excuse me I was a cool 16yr old in 2000 so I was busy smoking weed and being way more sexually promiscuous than I realized at the time
Plug me into the matrix, I want to go back.
“yeah you know the pizzas are hot and ready right? like you just walk in”
a conversation my dad had many times before they started just going “okay got it. one supreme. one cheese. one pepperoni. we should have that ready in about 20 minutes” (we lived 20 minutes from the store)
Did your dad ever hang up the phone and say something like “you just have to know how to talk to them.” to you?
Is Marjorie Taylor Greene also calling the Pizza guy the N-Word?
And if you went to pick up the pizza, you could say “pizza pizza” to the cashier and they’d give you a toy.
The Hulk Hogan in the center almost made me not notice the horrendous green walls and 1,5mt high ceiling. Almost.
Little Ceasers made bank with that Bigfoot pizza promotion off of me and my friends for a while.
Pizza Hut was the Bigfoot. Little Caesars was the two pizzas deal (hence “pizza pizza”). Both were on cardboard trays and wrapped in paper, though.
We always did the Bigfoot because we could only get delivery from Pizza Hut and were too young to drive. $12 including tip!
EDIT: Maybe you were thinking of “Pizza by the foot” from LC? I forgot about that one.
Meh just mixed up Bigfoot and LC’s Big Big Cheese. Nothing for you to get worked up about. Thanks for the research. ᕕ( ᐛ)ᕗ
Wow! I honestly don’t know if I ever saw this pizza back in the day. Sounds like something that would have been right up our alley.
Also, I miss this pricing for pizza. 24 giant slices for $8.88? Yes, please!
Little Caesars in the double box.
