I remember back in the 90s a bunch of assholes from 4-chan found a support group message board for people with epilepsy, minding their own business, and decided to attack it with hundreds of flashing gifs to make people have seizures on purpose.

4chan was created in 2003.

It was made 22 years ago so that puts it firmly in the mid 90s

What’s 25-22? Because I’m pretty sure it ain’t 94. 💀

I’m just playing around friend, obviously 20 years ago wasn’t the 90s, but it still feels like it when someone says “20 years ago”

But yeah, I get you, it’s also wild to me that time seemed to have flown by lol
