It was Channel 99 when I was growing up... I'm assuming he's talking about "squigglies". When the picture was scrambled and squiggly, but you could make a titty or an arse every now and again. It was how all of us pre-internet kids watched porn.

"channel zero" means something entirely different to those of us of a certain age.


Boy, I was way off.

I was thinking of the Public Enemy song with the sampled Slayer riff.

exactly! what a great way to grow up. Occasionally a random channel would come in long enough for a titty or arse shot, but when that happened it was as if you won the lottery! I remember a sleep overs we'd search the high static channels late at night and if we saw any kind of glitch or indication of an image behind the channel snow, we examined it like Sherlock Holmes.

That's how we learned patience, kiddos.

Oh okay lol well yea I was in that generation too. I remember right at like 10 o'clock Cinemax would air 5 minutes of uninterrupted soft core. Then it would scramble out with a semi shot of clarity every other minute or so. It was most riveting entertainment a boy could possibly hope for lol.
