There had always been the naysayers. They were usually older and had learned to live without. Then there were the depreciators. The ones who had tried it before it was made exclusive but still never got the draw of it. 
 
 I was born to a naysayer mother and a depreciator father. Neither sides of my family ever spoke of the `` glory days'' when it was readily available. It was never on their radar. 
 
 Surprisingly enough, even though computers were rendered basically useless without it, my family still had one. To do what on, we never knew. Nobody taught us. Nobody needed a computer. 
 
 But I taught myself. I was always obsessed with computers. Maybe I was autistic... Maybe I was just strange. I started playing solitaire. My, what a delightful game! I could play it for hours! I then found minesweeper. It was not as enjoyable as solitaire, but I still found how to correctly strategize in the game. The games proved to be fun, but I knew there was something more. 
 
 It all changed the day I clicked on the yellow running man. I thought it had to be another game. Possibly a marathon running game. It opened and said I still had hours left. Well... I surely hoped I had longer to live than that. Undeterred, I was eventually met by Google. 
 
 I had the heard my family speak of Google! Was I...? No. I could n't be. Was I...? I was... 
 
 
 I quickly jarred my brain thinking of what to search for. The creator of the internet? What AOL was? I was so confused. But then, it popped up. 
 
 **CONGRATULATIONS!!! YOU ARE THE 1,000,000TH VISITOR! CLICK HERE TO CLAIM YOUR PRIZE!!!'' 
 
 I clicked. Who would n't? It took me to some strange site. I clicked out. Who would n't? I had finally decided on what to search for on Google. I simply typed out `` popular''. Surely, this would tell me what the internet was truly about. What came up first left me starstruck, then confused, then led to me never getting back on the internet again.
