[ And by 'new album' he means Electriclarryland, released in, uh... 1996. ]

i still dont know how i feel about it all
i mean some of this stuff is cool [ like Spotify, OBVI ] but its a lot to get used to

[ It's not, like, totally foreign tech to him. Sure, cell phones, computers, and the internet are all already a thing when he's from. But not like this, all combined and ubiquitous.

Maybe he shouldn't have teased his little brother so much for being so into the web and all that dorky amateur hacking shit. ]

its 1995 for me. which is weird because so much is the same but its also different in all these ways i never wouldve thought

is it weird for you too? [ Like, sure, she's only got a two-year displacement, but who knows, a lot of insane shit could've happened in those two years. ]

It really is. Lucky for you, it's all meant to be super easy to work with. You'll get the hang of it in no time.

I've experienced weirder, so it isn't so much, I think.

Also, I think we might be neighbors. You're playing the music a little too loud.

[cacophonish]

oops sorry
hang on

[ Here, he's going to turn the volume down to a more reasonable level. ]

welcome to bonnies :-)

ive been through some weird shit before but this definately tops the list
you must come from a way more exciting world than me

[carmesi]

Thank you.

[for both the welcome and turning down the volume!]

It depends on what you consider to be exciting.

I'm Wanda. If you need help with any of this technological stuff, maybe I can help.

[cacophonish]

i guess its all relative right? whats exciting to me is normal to you and vise versa

i'm Jeff
nice to meet you
so are there any must have apps i should get on my phone?

[carmesi]

Probably Netflix. It has a bunch of TV shows and movies.
Audible for books.

[does that exist in this world? she hasn't checked.]

There are a lot of games you can get, too.
