I've been online before the internet existed

What does this statement mean to you?

Sounds like you were involved with the tail end of Usenet but I wasn't referring to Usenet.

Incel didn't become what means today until sometime after 2000 when 4chan and Reddit arrived on the scene. That was the beginning of the end of the period I am talking about.
