Comments

When I logged into my first dial-up BBS, I had no idea what to use as my handle. My manual for GWBasic was sitting in front of me.

25 years later I'm GWBas1c on Hacker news.

I should have been loadquotestarquotecomma8comma1.

The password i used for CompuServe was my modem model number. Same reason.
