the only moment I truly remember is 9/11. Which is probably similar for a lot of people here. I was walking from first period to second when the kids in front of me were talking about hearing about a plane crash in NYC. When I got to class the world was different. I was at a military boarding school with people from all over the world.

First blowjob. Will never forget it. Took 3 shots of tequila to get the taste out of my mouth.

For real though it’s when I fully grokked bitcoin- couldn’t sleep for weeks because it hit me so hard.

Saw an article on my phone early January 2020 while scrolling through those crappy recommended ones on the Chrome homepage: China pneumonia outbreak raises spectre of Sars as number infected jumps to 44

Then, when they wanted to quarantine an entire city... Wuhan’s 11 Million People Face Quarantine as Virus Fears Spread ...I remember sitting in camping chair that I used for gaming in front of the TV, thinking about the phrase "Never let a good crisis go to waste"

9/11, Space Shuttle Challenger, & J6.

Which one is a joke? First right answer wins 100 sats

9/11 I was representing a driving while intoxicated client. The courtroom was locked. A guard came out and told me to come in and to send my client home. I then sat with a group of cops, watching the news. We all watched the second plane hit. At that moment, they all leaped up and left, leaving me alone. Frightening. I just wanted to get home to my wife and infant daughter.

The birth of my son. We had a very challenging road of infertility issues and IVF. I felt like Lance Armstrong would injecting my wife with all those drugs.

First broken bone. Fractured my left ankle at 12 requiring 2 screws.

As far as information memories, probably when I was halfway through Atlas Shrugged and realized my model of fairness and governments was all wrong.

I was sitting on a curb outside of SaveMart on my lunch break. I'd keep the copy in my apron often using store receipts as a bookmark. It was spring turning to summer and the days were getting longer but early evenings were still cool and in twilight.

A car bomb going off, killing tens and injuring hundreds of people, half a mile from where I was sitting. One tends to remember such moments.

Berlin Wall and 9/11 for me, was there for both.... I swear these things chase me around...lol

I remember those early days of excitement about how blockchains were going to revolutionize real estate.

Thinking about top ones, guess it's 9/11 (was sitting in Internet cafe [home Internet wasn't common thing yet back then] when news started to arrive) and when Latvian national football team qualified for Euro 2004. Ok, also when my daugther was born, but it was obvious, I was at the hospital.
