      I just like how it punches. But I acknowledge it’s been used by horrible people in the past and I just don’t wanna say it since it reminds me of Hans Asperger and American eugenics society every time I hear it

    This was a unique point in time when people had cell phones but had to carry a phonebook because there was no mobile internet. Some time between 1992 and 2005?

      Even in 2005, mobile internet was so shit, it might as well not have existed. 2007-2008 was when 3G was starting to get rolled out I believe, but even that was pretty damn slow and expensive. 3.5G in ~2010+ is when things were usable enough that you could perform a Google search without giving up before the your first result loads.
