“It’s an Allan Border ‘Butter ’em up’ card! It came out of a packet of butter. I wonder what it’s worth these days on Ebay??”

A giant stack of tea cards were also located. However, correction, half of them were actually from Weetbix packets. https://t.co/aVHlUHU5BC
DAMN IT. With less than three weeks to departure, Australia has appeared on Germany’s list of High Risk Countries. Currently limited to just Victoria, but if NSW follows, we will have to quarantine when we get there. MASK UP NSW, COME ON. 😷 https://t.co/wN6OcLKlxN
@DivZero_ Nah, when they opened the borders in June Australia wasn’t on the naughty list. 🙁
HOLY SHIT. I feel like I’ve seen a ghost. My old 2001 iBook actually boots up! Had to use Rodd’s password as I’ve forgotten mine. 😂 Look at all those ports! Only website it’ll actually open is Google. (SSL certs break on every other site.) https://t.co/kvN0ETV0IN
@mattallen Various income tax stuff from 2005.
The wi-fi is called Airport, and it can’t actually connect to our network. We had to plug in an Ethernet cable.

I’m tweeting from the past you guys!
Proof. Every page took like a full minute to load. That was painful! https://t.co/2B8Nbl56PJ
@hannahcancode @DrJosh9000 You reckon he wants this one? It’s not in great shape, but it still works!
@hannahcancode @DrJosh9000 We’re gonna wipe it and dump it in e-waste if no one wants it!
@hannahcancode @DrJosh9000 Hilariously, I think I’ve talked @gilmae into taking it. (Much to @randomknits’ annoyance)
Don’t mind me, just finishing a hand I started in 2004. https://t.co/ezYDbVFnPW
Wow. A blast from the Dark Ages of the @KnitGuildNSW, back when I took over as webmaster! https://t.co/IdIM1zHxz3
And you can bet your ass when you rollover those buttons on the left, they animate. 💅
And the absolute best thing on the whole machine (besides its embarrassment of ports and the amazing clickiness of the keyboard)… https://t.co/K0s3w5A6LB
If you played this game, you know EXACTLY what sounds we’re hearing RIGHT NOW. 😂
Me: The way this thing smells! It smells just like it used to! I’d know that smell anywhere!
Rodd: Is it the computer, or is it “you in 2005”? 😂
RT @jenistyping: “Why did you leave your last startup?”
I recently saw some folks saying that they really struggle to answer this question…
@steven_bryen I probably got the idea from a Webmonkey article. 😂 (FTR, I inherited that design. It didn’t take me long to completely redevelop it and get an actual designer to make it look presentable!)
Rodd discovered months ago that nudism in Germany is called “Freikörperkultur” (free body culture), and as he thinks German compound words are hilarious, we say it all the time. A German friend then told us they abbreviate to FKK (“eff-kah-kah”), which is even funnier. 😂 https://t.co/2qfYlaBIrn
It’s now our default inside joke about our future lives in Germany. “How many big winter coats do you think we’ll need? “EFF KAH KAH, KRISTY.” 😂
