Ahh... IRC... gateway into the world of Warez... In mid 90s, I remember sending /ctcp xdcc list commands to bots and giggling in utter joy while browsing through pirated copies of absurdly priced software like Archicad, electric image animation system, Alias. Then hoarding them knowing full well I'd never use them.. filling them on 100MG iomega zip disks purchased from CompUSA or computer city. Good old days.

Someone started at work recently. They were born in 2000. They were harping on about getting a film from BitTorrent I told them I was using bitchx to dcc tv episodes down a 10m line before they were born. They called me granddad :/

The joy of piracy really is the getting and the having.
