In 2013, it came back, different than we remembered. Then it vanished. Then, in August 2015, it appeared again, and it's still there. But that's silly. It has always been there. You keep checking the date. You must be confused. It's 1995.

This must be the OS that Cecil uses.

To begin, please use the razor blade included in the box to create a 5-inch horizontal incision on your abdomen, then insert the Windows 95 installation CD-ROM.

Seems a bit more like Kevin's style, actually.

This is why Microsoft skipped from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. Because when you type "Windows 9", it auto-completes as "95". Windows 95 can not be killed. It will never die.

Actually, that bit reminded me more of Max Renn.

The Windows 95 tips tumblr was created by Neil Cicierega. It seems like this Twitter is not him and is just reposting his content without permission.

The more you use Windows 95, the sooner Windows 95 becomes you. Just before the transformation is complete, you simply refer to your operating system self as Windows Me.

You are not very far from the truth...
