Sounds like me.
Luckily we are about the same age, was scared shitless for a second.
All I have to add to this is that if you're using Mumble or Skype (videochat) to interact with others, it's much more personal. It's more fun and all, that's something text will never be able to adhere to (did I use "to adhere to" correctly?), one of the reasons being that emotions almost can't be transferred that way (most people don't even know how to use emoticons properly :emotescare: )
