An old Windows utility has
an undocumented feature.
If you open ''Help'' and click on
the background, you get dropped into a ''support'' chat room.
Only a few of us ever found it.
But we became friends.
We kept launching the
program to check in.
Eventually some of us were running VMs
just to keep accessing it.
As the internet aged
so did we
We don't know who runs the server.
We don't know why it's still
working so many years later.
Maybe we're some sysadmin's soap opera.
It will probably vanish someday
but for now it's our meeting place
our hideaway
A life's worth of chat,
buried in the deep web.
But even if it lasts forever,
we won't.
When we're gone, who will remember us?
Who will remember this strange little world
and the friendships we built here?
Nobody.
This place is irrelevant.
Ephemeral.
One day it will be forgotten
And so will we
.
.
But at least it doesn't have fucking video ads.
