Just found an Obama chat room on IRC
Edited on Fri Apr-25-08 12:59 PM by LittleFarter
I thought it was pro-Obama, turns out it's anti-Obama. All you Hillary supporters would love it I guess.

irc.synirc.net #obama

The hint it's not liberal friendly. I was called a 'faggot' and was told I should write a diary about how only Michael Moore can save me. Another guy said how Obama was a loser and should give up , Hillary is to be the nominee..

Ehem.

15. My dear (too young/too old) DU'er.
Back in my day (cough!) when the World Wide Web was in its infancy and we still used 56K modems and browsed Gopher using Mosaic, there was this curious little tool called IRC (Internet Relay Chat). If you log onto a server (college servers were easiest), you could sign on to one of a few dozen chat rooms on a variety of topics from politics to entertainment to people who collect wet mops.

And from those days forward, virtual sex has never been the same.

14. You couldn't pay me enough to talk politics on IRC.
I haven't IRC'ed since the days of #acrophobia. Anyone else play that game in the old days?
