And by the time Millennials were in High School we almost certainly had Internet.

Who’s this “we”, white man?

…I was poor and didn’t have it until I started art school in ‘99

I didnt know that only white people had internet access before 99. I'm glad they let us in, eventually. I had internet access at school before 99, but it must've been a white school or something.

It must be cool to be white and immune to being poor.

Edit: this comment was a Lone Ranger quote. Not just nonchalant racism. I haven't seen that movie in ages. It is a classic. Carry on friend. I apologize for assuming the worst.

It's a line from Lone Ranger (not the Johnny Depp one).

You are right. I haven't seen that movie in ages and forgot. I thought the person I replied to was just race baiting at first, but they were just vibing. I apologize for jumping to conclusions.

It’s cool, I shouldn’t have expected many people to get the reference, being how outdated it is even for me

Just vibing is the way to be, yo

You probably have to add /s or root_beer won't know otherwise.
