Experiences Today's Youth will never have: -Seeing TV channels shut off for the night -Trying to j/o to late-night phone sex commercials or Red Shoe Diaries dimly visible through static because you didn't really get the channel but some of it came through

The opening line to William Gibson's "Neuromancer" ("The sky was the color of a TV tuned to a dead channel") flat out doesn't mean anything to younger readers

The slow build up of waiting for a single sexy image to load and the pixelated crunchiness of dial up porn?

Realizing that my parents basically lived through a horror movie if they ever witnessed their child intently watching scrambled, nonsense channels.

Never get hung running through the house because your older sister is in the closet, and the phone is in the kitchen. She’s talking to a BOY!

Learning the trick where you could spam the "last channel" button to make it constantly refresh the same channel, which would give you a split second of a warped frame of the Spice channel with each press.

My brain permanently associates the late night phone sex commercials with episodes of Duckman and The Maxx.

There was a point when the caption signal started getting through and I was excited to be able to actually tell what was happening in the episodes. I think that show and Real Sex were the closest thing I got to a Sex Ed class growing up.

Kids don't know about setting your TV channel to 4 instead of 3 so you could kind of sort of get the next channel up on your cable box and maybe see a boob on Cinemax when your cable box is on Oxygen
