Man the story with Lackluster is really sweet, both of you were lucky to have met each other.
must. find. lackluster.
Him logging on still to see if she's online kinda breaks my heart bro :'(
I started getting nervous and fearing for young and innocent Sumito.
@@GummoNZ This was before we worried about that constantly. We probably should have, but we didn't.
Her: “wow who’s cat is that?”
Sumito: “idk it’s a cat picture on the internet”
… and that moment changed her life forever. She grew up and became, yes you guessed it, JFK
Really loving the content dude. I hope dailies work out well for you. We'll stick around even if not.

Sumet turned that bug type pokemon into a ghost one
Bro went from nincada to shedinja
20 minutes of Sumito Lore really did slap, just what I needed today
Bro, can we make Tuesday Story Time with Sumito? This made me so happy honestly
In third grade I finished my assignment early in typing class and opened up solitaire, and the teacher yelled at me and accused me of "getting on the internet" and switched my grade to an F and I went home crying. My mom helped me stand up for myself and explain that solitaire was not the internet and i got my grade back.
High school was filled with searching "cool math gams" to bypass the block on the word "games" and playing BTD3 every class. Also I was the one to introduce Happy Wheels to my school which felt awesome.
Appreciate the daily. I've been watching for a couple years and as a teacher you've kept me, at least superficially, "with it".
bro started the video like he was sitting reverse in a folding chair
Rap god
Sumito towards his audience: "Listen kid, your body is going through some changes and it's going to be weird. Suddenly you think skibidi toilet maybe wasn't so hilarious as you first thought. It's all a part of growing up."
Bro, was not ready for that. Meme-ories slapped this afternoon.
Sumito starting to metamorphize into old man with feelings of nostalgia
The games I used to play online when I was younger are dead, the forums where we hung out as a clan are gone. I still think about those who once played together with me as friends and comrades over my decades on the internet, and how much it affected us all. This vid has feels.
Damn, who would sumito be if that kid told him to go to lemon party as his first experience on the internet
Joker arch Sumito
@@kharan3 idubbz. That's who
I thought that the story would have continued that Sumito wanted the teacher to see the Lime Cat and told her to go to watch Lemon Party.
this was really lovely actually, ty.
when I was like 16 I started playing WoW and found myself in a very small guild with a handful of people who had only been playing for a few months (the game was only like 7-8 months old) and no one really knew what they were doing but we all tried to help each other out and everyone was super friendly and supportive. Looking back, I'm so lucky to have landed there. They really helped build a foundation of like, 'just be nice and kinda chill'
Albinoblacksheep was a HUGH part of my early internet life. IYKYK.
This was def not the content I was expecting today. Nevertheless it was super wholesome to hear the anecdotes you shared.
Made me think of my early internet days when youtube was still kind of the wild west of pirated content. I spent so much time watching movies that were cut into like 35 parts and flipped to avoid the crude copyright scanners back in the day. Good times :)
"22 and Beautiful"
The story with Lackluster took me way back. Back in like 2010 I was muckin' around on my Xbox 360 with this new game my mom had bought me, Rainbow Six Vegas 2 (god I miss that game) and I met this guy who was in his early 40's if I recall correctly in a matchmade round of Terrorist Hunt. Despite the titanic age gap he added me as a friend (probably cause he found it... adorable? that I was enthralled with his stories of him during Desert Storm) and after a few weeks introduced me to his circle that he played weekly mini-tournaments with and wanted me brought in. Gods those tournaments were so fun. We'd do dumb shit like no hiding behind cover and always had to be moving with only the revolver or only hip firing an LMG.
We went our seperate ways something like 12 years ago and now I wonder how he's doing these days.
Memes that unmade me: all had a very specific logo on the video
I appreciate this deep SumitoMedia lore
Another certified neighborhood classic!
When I was in grade school, our teacher had us play a game that they loaded onto a floppy disk called 'Kid Keys' and one of the levels you have to click on cheese to feed it to a cartoon dragon. The sound of that dragon chewing is seared into my brain, I encourage everyone to watch the game play.
I played OSRS back in sophomore year of high school and I met a mom in her 50s. She and I would mine and woodcut together and just generally played together for a year or so. She was my Runescape mom and she was a sweetheart. I hope she's doing well.
The lackluster story brought a tear to my eye. Those early internet friendships were special
Thank you so much for sharing, Sumito. The story about Lackluster brought a tear to my eye. I'm happy that we're able to make these connections across the planet. The internet can be beautiful.
Genuinely think this is one of your best vids, just hearing other peeps experience of old school internet is such a wholesome thing to listen to. Especially when it lines up close to my time back then too. Only personal anecdote was seeing all the flash game sites I loved as a kid either getting phased out or turning into malware sites like Andkon haha
Absolutely crazy lore drop. Somehow listening to stuff that made you was really nice. Got to say, I had a very different experiences with mmorpgs
Oh on god that’s actually the real Mudan he’s spinning on it
I loved the story of a player helping a player get a leg up. I likewise have a memory like this. I really hope you can touch base with her again someday. Imagine her learning she helped someone who became internet famous!
"I was that kind of kid, as a child."
He's a totally different kind of kid now
This was wholesome af man. We all have these small inflection points in our lives that ever so subtly change the course of where we go. Sometimes you meet or find inspiration from others that just happen to be in the right place at the right time. When you think back on what brought you to where you are now, and you realize what little seemingly unimportant or small things had to happen to get you there (not necessarily success, but maybe even the neighborhood where you live or job you have) it absolutely breaks your brain.
A while ago I had a similar walk down memory lane, so to speak. I'm past the age my dad was when I was born, so I now wonder how the hell he held things together as well as he did. And he had a kid. I don't have a kid and I don't think I could keep it together as well as he did.
Anyway, pops was a trucker. Mom didn't like being alone for weeks on end so he quit trucking and drove a city bus. I guess he mouthed off at the wrong person and got canned. Driving is all he could really do, but he got a job installing alarm systems in houses and businesses. He had to figure out electronics really quickly, so he got some of the books by Forrest Mims from Radio Shack. They were great as they had little hand-drawn cartoons of electrons and all that.
So the alarm installer gig didn't work out and dad gave me all his electronics books. I fell in love with them and my parents got me those '200 in one' electronics kits from Radio Shack as my 'one big Christmas gift' and I loved them. They ignited a curiosity in me and because I was a big ass dork who got his fat ass kicked at school every day, I decided to bring one of my projects to work on in the library. The head of the district computer department was there setting up some new computers and asked me about what I was doing. He was interested so he talked to my folks and he gave me an old IBM PC XT computer that was like a decade old. Dude it was slow and could only run Windows 3.1 in black and white but I was hooked. It would die from a failed PSU, I would fix it. I kept it going and learned a lot.
Later on in life I chose IT for a career and have been working as a systems administrator for quite a while now. I enjoy what I do, I'm paid well, and my folks are proud of me. All that started because pops mouthed off at work and got shitcanned, then quit another job because he hated it. If he had of just kept his mouth shut, it's entirely possible I would be an accountant or some shit right now. And I'm thankful for it. I realize a lot of people stuck their neck out for me over the years, and I didn't appreciate it then. It's only in recent years that I've actually reflected on it and it really makes me want to be a positive influence. Maybe I'll be that inflection point for someone some day. Maybe they'll think of me fondly long after I'm gone. Maybe I will unknowingly give someone that boost they need in their life. I can hope. I don't believe in the woo woo BS but if you put positive stuff out there, maybe positive things will happen. Not necessarily for you, but maybe someone else.
I really enjoyed this vid man. Thanks for putting it up even if you thought it was corny. You put it up for a reason that was important to you, and I hope you were able to find satisfaction in it.
What's amazing is the lack of editing and cuts. Sumito was so genuine in his telling of his early memory. It's so wholesome, I didn't expect to get hit with so much nostalgia. This dude is so relatable he's making me feel parasoical rn. Godamnit gai.
7:30 Dear god, as a kid I saw the one where Godzilla fucks the city first and didn't even know the original song existed. To this day whenever I hear "the Ultimate Showdown" music I get flashbacks to Godzilla taking a fat shit and all those wieners lol
Being close to the same age as you, I can really relate to feeling on top of the world when showing my friends something for the first time!
Nowadays everything seems to be discovered and forgotten alot faster than before.
This is the realest reminiscence I've heard in a long time. Our class bugs were mealworms that we got to observe becoming darkling beetles. We took care of those bad boys in a huge glass punch bowl for two months, and every time we found one dead it broke our little hearts. Dad and I had to move eventually, and the teacher (Ms. Izzy) gave me the bowl as a parting gift, with six beetles left. She let me have her number and told me to keep her updated on the little guys.
You should've seen little Amber clutching this big-ass punch bowl full of oatmeal in her lap, sobbing like crazy as she rode away from that school. Thankfully, dad was kind enough to let the rest of the beetles go naturally, and he let me call Ms. Izzy when I was ready. Most of the class was there and everyone was fighting for the phone, and we must've spent an hour chatting on and on. Poor Ms. Izzy ran out of minutes on her phone and had to cut it early, but she said I could keep the bowl.
I still have that bowl, and research has shown a similar one from the same company would be about $200 in today money. The memories make mine priceless, though
I hope lackluster living her best life as a 80 year old
One of the first times I talked to people online was old-school Runscape. I remember playing Flash Games and Newgrounds. This brings me back.
I remember when I was 10 and I would continuously watch homestar runner over and over again. Its was the golden era ❤
I remember my first time with the internet, my dad introduced me to MSN games, but I got on other sites later like Neopets and CoolMathGames which were even better. I sometimes checked out other stuff like GameFAQs (cuz my dad and I played Xbox), Yahoo answers, and RUclips when that was made. The best moment was when we learned how to use floppy disks, CDs, and USBs in computer class. We were allowed to play music if we brought our own CD, iPod, or USB, so my dad downloaded Billy Talent and Three Days Grace for me on a USB. What a joy to finish my class work and then play CoolMathGames while listening to cool music
Bro, it’s scary how close my 2010s reflect yours (Funnyjunk, fmylife). Hearing you talk about it was super nostalgic for me. I really enjoyed this vid, laid back, slow pace, introspective. Always a treat to listen to you talk!
Dude, this is awesome. You're getting the same amount of views on videos that you were getting a few months ago with way more frequency of uploads. Stay away from burnout!
What I learned from nigahiga:
Use copyrighted music in your intros until RUclips gets publicly traded and retroactively deletes yo hole vid ✌️
I thought "what I learned from nigahiga: read more" was a Hook on Fonik joke and honestly thank you for the accidental laugh
Hi Sumito! Thanks for sharing your stories about how you got started with the internet. I played a lot of Kingdom of Loathing when I was younger and that one in particular resonated with me. Your videos make my day brighter and I'm always excited to see something new from you. All the best from Colorado.
I legit almost cried hearing about the whole Lackluster "saga" if you want to call it that. I feel like a lot of early internet goblins had someone like that. That unifies us, as well as Ray William Johnson.
Legit, because of him, I'd subbed to the colossus known as Penguinz0 due to some vid where Ray talked about his QWOP gameplay. Once I had subbed, I'd just started binge watching his vids and between then and now I'd hardly miss an upload. I dropped off with =3, but I never dropped watching Charlie, and got to experience his face reveal and shift in content, and I feel weirdly proud of the dude I've literally never met in my life lol
Proud of you too btw dude, daily vids aren't easy but you've been crushing it. Glad to have known of you and keep knowing you, this video warmed my disgusting heart. ❤
This was nostalgic for me and I didn't even use the sites you talked about. Old internet was such a different kind of place. I used to just read webcomics and post demotivational memes on a Facebook page I set up all through high school. Hitting front page on Reddit with one of my own webcomics was such a dream come true.
This was genuinely wholesome Sumito
As someone born in 2000, the internet was mostly playing flash games and cool math games (like fireboy and watergirl) with my brother and roblox after school on our parents extra laptops. Once Minecraft youtubers blew up around 2012 they had a chokehold on a generation, and then the most influential on my life in terms of humor and entertainment was Vanoss Gaming and that whole friend group from 2014 through 2018 when I went to college. Its weird to think about but really I grew up with them in a way and now most of them are in their 30’s married and having kids. It’s weird but thinking about it makes me smile. I still check them out once in a while, good memories
Kingdom of Loathing actually has a kind of follow-up single player rpg called West of Loathing that's like a silly western. It's cool
Back somewhere in either 1999 or 2000, when I was in middle school, I would chat with random people I would find in AOL chatrooms, which I am amazed did not go for worse me. I remember talking to a woman who was in her mid 20's at the time who I really liked talking to, who didn't understand my attempts at using primitive internet slang, saying she preferred to use proper punctuation, grammar and spelling, even in chatrooms, mostly out of habit.
I adopted the habit and 25 years later, I still type like this.
I hope she's doing well, she was incredibly nice to me even though I was like 12 years old and incredibly annoying.
Yo, shout out to LackLuster. She’s a real one. Here’s hoping she’s out there happy, healthy, and playing Shadows of Loathing.
BEST FREAKING SUMITO VIDEO TO DAY
That Lackluster bit got surprisingly wholesome.
12:19 this is apple dunking before apple dunking 😂
"Cyanide & Happiness, which has been running for 10 or 15 years" bad news hyena boss, its been aaaaaalmost 20 years
I grew up with a lot of internet things that were very specific to my country, but among the more international things, I remember playing browser games like Bootleggers and such. And any flash animation or game that featured George W. Bush doing dumb shit was always a hit, and something I just remember from that era. Though I think the point in time I'm the most nostalgic about is when I was in High School. World of Warcraft was my life back then, and I spent a lot of time hanging out on my Guild's forum (I have been in that guild, and its "post-wow" discord community form for like 17 years at this point) where we shared a lot of different internet funny stuff and other interesting bits. The Powerthirst videos from College Humor were among my favorites. And of course the good old "Half-Life - Full Life Consequences" RUclips machinima (would you call it that?) - I occasionally quote it to this day.
The beginning of having a reason to be online for me was Poptropica. Knowing that there was one super fun, frequently updated game online made the rest of the internet super appealing.
I loved Kingdom of Loathing! Saucercerer was my favorite class.
I remember my first AFK moment. I was on some furry mud playing "Truth or RP". I picked RP and they wanted me to tell eveyone what is "yiffing" You know there is a help feature in the mud that you can look up terms? "help yiff" = 'The sound a fox makes" That was no help for somone who has been in the mud for less than a week:P
Funny enough I didn't know what it REALLY meant for a few weeks. Honestly? I don't remember what I said I just know I was to embarrassed to go back for months.
In all fairness, the teacher eliminated more caterpillars than you.
Genuinely amazing video the stories were interesting af especially the one 22 and beautiful one.
Believe it or not the Loathing series is still around and flourishing. West of Loathing and Shadows Over Loathing are both excellent single player rpg's on the PC and Nintendo switch.
my first online gaming experience as a kid was 'pre-internet' on BBS systems (direct modem connection). games like LORD, and message boards with colour coded ASCII were all the rage. people were still unironically saying 'where's the beef' as a meme. we're talking 1993.
Our origin story couldn’t be more alike minus the caterpillar 😂
I went to an afterschool daycare facility for youths Pre-K to 17 on the southside of Chicago with a computer lab, and we had to type our name 100 times into a Word document before we were allowed to go onto the internet. The 17 year olds were the first to find out about copying and pasting and passed down the intel to younger and younger groups of kids. This helped all of us maximize our time on NewGrounds, Cartoon Network Games, Disney Channel Games, CrazyMonkey Games, Armor Games, Addicting Games, Habbo Hotel, and WWE chat rooms. There was also one room in the building that the oldheads hung out in and they brought their own copy of Starcraft that we all huddled around to watch someone play. Only a handful of kids new the cheat codes for Starcraft so it was always good to keep them around. There was also another room that had like a PC version of Super Mario? Like the OG one but somehow on PC with some slightly different coloration and additional mushroom types? Idk, but that was a hub for kids just being kids after school and on the internet under slight adult supervision. Great video btw Summy
The story about Lackluster reminds me of the middle-aged woman who was basically my Neopets mentor. Had all the rare paintbrushes and pet-pets and knew all the tips and tricks, spent Neopoints like they were nothing... She was just there to have a good time and help us do the same.
8:05 Interactive Buddy got banned on my middle school computers 😂
Me and you may never cross paths, but you brought some joy to my life today. Thank you
Awesome episode Sumito! Really genuinely enjoyed the trip down memory lane with you. I also grew up with the internet in my formative years, so this was nostalgic for me too lol. Your story about Lackluster was really wholesome. Love this type of content. Also, that Gengar necklace is sick!
Your experience with Gizmos and gadgets is so similar to mine. I would finish classwork as fast as possible to play that game.
Playing Ultima Online over dail up was formative for me, the relentless PK'ing, the time sink, the culture that came with it... loved all of it.
this video was so cozy. i love the meme nostalgia!
I used to play a game called Shadowmere (text based, kingdom building mod/roleplay) in the late 90s/early 00s before I became engrossed with Half-Life mods and later WoW. I was a horrible shit then, over I was an angsty teenager, now I've replaced that by being an angsty adult, so it's marginally less worse. But I still keep in touch with people I met online over 20 years ago. So that's neat.
Early internet was definitely a wild time. I remember being a dumb kid and diving into AOL chatrooms and just trolling. Having friends send me to crazy sites like Rotten, Rate my poo, and more. My parents were oblivious and basically let me have free reign. That said, flash games were where I was mostly (ZachAttack, CartoonNetwork, and Nickelodeon).
I still remember when I was growing up and pretending to do homework when I was actually playing btd battles and it so stressful tabbingh in and out trying not to lose while also looking like I was studying and sometimes I'd just abuse the afk bug like the little shit I am by just slamming the laptop shut
You have excellent penmanship. Very clear writing with consistent spacing and lettering!
Unexpected KOL reference! I actually got sucked back into the game a couple years ago and really got stuck back into the game, it really is a time capsule back to the internet of my childhood.
I just watched LGR's video on Gizmos and Gadgets the other day, funny to see every other computer lab had the same few games
Damn bro that was genuinely heartwarming
Bro the feels. Man the late 90s -early 2000s was the bomb.
Solid af video. Your integrity is the primary reason I keep coming back for sure - it feeds into your authenticity. Like many, I found ya via Internet Historian/Incognito - had found myself quite favoring the 'episodes' you were on. Quickly found my way here, and have been more than happy to watch your content ever since. I find a lot of memey gamers intolerable and they lack nuance with much discussion on social or political issues as pressure from fans and easily formed echo chambers take hold. You ain't like that, and it's cool.
Also lackluster seemed like a really great guiding light for ya with games :) hope she's doing well
What an absolute nostalgia trip
Saving this video for a later nostalgia trip down memory lane. This comments section is going to be amazing
I loved this video
Learning more about Sumito
Interesting stories tbh it's really the authenticity I appreciate
Have a lovely day you're one of the few content creator I always love to watch
My mum was a bit over protective so I don’t remember much from the 90’s but I remember playing these maths games on the school computer (our class had one) in grade two. When I got older I loved going on funnyjunk or stick death after school.
I loved the stories. When I was a wee lad, I'm a little younger than you probably, we had a room next to the library that housed maybe 30 XP desktops. I loved computer time, we played on coolmathgames and also had a stack of CDs of other edutainment. For longer than I'd like to admit I thought you had to press shift and the letter at the same time as one stroke, like because if you held down a letter it would repeat, so I did the same to the shift key.
The memes back then were so, wholesome, like homely or something. Maybe they were looking back now.
I’m glad you said something about the joke sucking in that web comic, because I was gonna
This was fantastic and took me back to my school years with dumb crap happening like that. Great story man, thanks for sharing!
When we were kids my friends and I loved the flash games on Miniclip. I still have the soundtrack to Super Extreme 5 Minute Shoot 'Em Up, it goes so hard for just a random flash game.
As someone who came to this channel from a drama video, this is so interesting. I love stories like this
Man SmS from last night, that brings me back. there was a german version of it where i spend my time when waiting for the bus as soon as i had my first "Smartphone"
I wasnt expecting this to be so touching. Great video Sumit'. Hope Lack is doing well
Shoutout to Eric from Austria whom i played way too much WoW with back in the day, hope youre living it up
this video felt so much like an evening at your grandparents house in the year 2064 and it was so cozy and sweet to listen to
Uggghhhh the intro is so sweet! I consider sending memes like a love language between my friends and any partners I have because you recognize that someone thought about you after seeing something, and thought you might like it 🤍 I’d have totally given back the computer privileges
Gizmos and Gadgets was a part of a larger series of edutainment games made by the learning company. I have a CD copy for Windows98SE of Super Solver's Mission Think from the same series.
I loved those games as a kid. Not just those, but the cluefinder series and the reader rabbit series were wonderful things to play when I was a kid. I vividly remember going after the dragon that turned out to be an airplane in cluefinder's third grade adventures.
I played a lot of those edutainment games too and it was fun to not only play em but to try the higher grade levels/disks and see if you’re like a genius. Parents must’ve thought these were amazing cuz it was one of the first educational things you could just leave your kids with. Now parents let their kids have iPads but they don’t do edutainment, they watch disgusting Elsagate content on YT 😑
Sumito is way more chaotic-wholesome than I gave him credit for.
this was just wholesome to listen to
also your teachers sound a lot cooler than mine, think i was banned from the computer once for a year for sneezing once in class, my teachers were CRAZY
I remember the fantasy idle game, "Progress Quest". Ran on my computer for many many years, and I was in the top 10 list on their website.
💜💜💜💜💜
Kingdomofloathing was so amazing! I played so much of that game in middle school, even played for a bit recently! Lando
Ytmnd was also there for me X 3
Ebaums world too, but then, as is now, I don't like mean humor 🤷♂️
Also remember the OG Tanks? It was basically a two player geometry game X D so fun tho
I used to love stick figure fighting stuff and madness interactive.
Kingdom of Loathing mentioned.
Now Sumito is bigger than his inspiration and will inspire others even though they’ll never be able to aspire to be what Sumito will be.
