Back in '96 my phone company charged like 10cents a minute or something crazy for even local calls. My mother was pretty pissed about that. Then I started playing a game on AOL that cost $1.99 an hour, she got a $300 AOL bill and I wasn't playing that anymore...

i used to shout and make hissing noises into the phone while my mom was online so it would kick her off and i would get a chance to play EQ.
