  • ShirleyImMilk G. Double D. (@ShirleyImMilk) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    Were talking about “What cultural item are you older than” at work. We’re slow. So far, I’m older than MTv, AOL and VHS cassettes. This is a fun game to make me feel like I AM ACTUALLY THE OLDEST IN THE STORE. I don’t like this game... I’m taking my slap wraps and going home.

  • Messe3Christina Christina Sheryl Messenger (@Messe3Christina) reported from Alexandria, Virginia

    @AOLSupportHelp I have been trying to get to deactivate the my account but when I called Customer Support, they’d told me that I would not be able to deactivate it for a year!! 😭😭😭 Please help me!!

  • DrTraceyK Dr. Tracey Perez Koehlmoos (@DrTraceyK) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    @cclareMDMPH Two. I never had an AOL address.

  • francvs francvs (@francvs) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @AOL Why have I been seeing “We’re having trouble connecting with our servers. Please try again later,” for about a day now?

  • AgarWoodCapital TTT Nguyen (@AgarWoodCapital) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    There can be no risk-free opportunity in sports, business or life. Failure is catastrophic bc of a lack of preparedness. Sears, DC redskins, Blackberry, AOL, & NYC knicks were at the top of their game, but they failed because they were afraid to fail. #failureispartofsuccess

  • gatlingxyz Tavon (@gatlingxyz) reported from Huntington, Virginia

    I'd known about #DnD but never played. Not even the geeks/nerds in my school played, as far as I know. And most of my schools have always been predominantly Black, so there was no representation. (I did do a lot of text based RPing on AOL tho)

  • Helen_Highly HelenHighly (@Helen_Highly) reported from Alexandria, Virginia

    @Doc_Harding @Nerienis Perhaps their sudden popularity (and unprepared infrastructure) will destroy their success, like it did AOL back in the day with the busy-signal fiasco. 🫤

  • bucketOfBuckets Connor McGowan (@bucketOfBuckets) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    @aklingus There was like a 6 month period in the mid 90s where AOL chat rooms were a fun place to hang out… and when you started a convo with someone you’d have to rapid fire emails back and forth because there was no private chat or instant message system

  • StepToTheMic Kodi Seaton (@StepToTheMic) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    Some of you have never spent a summer messaging a complete stranger on dial-up AOL Instant Messenger and it shows. 😫 #LoveIsBlindNetflix #loveisblind

  • MissInformation Heather Perram Frank BA (@MissInformation) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @annasproul I was one of a handful of producers in the Dulles, VA AOL newsroom on 9/11. The campus was evacuated after a plane that departed from the adjacent airport slammed into the Pentagon. I’ll never forgot having to sit on my hands because they were shaking so much I couldn’t type.

  • GlendaF77551891 Glenda Flores (@GlendaF77551891) reported from Falls Hill, Virginia

    Jocelyne if you slept with Jason it’s cool…😒 You think I’m dumb right? I seen your porn collections and all you AOL chats 😒 The original convo was you slept with Meylene 😒 You think I’m stupid.

  • RichardH1818 Richard Hanson ✡ (@RichardH1818) reported from Merrifield, Virginia

    Email server Recommendations anyone? AOL has been the host for mine--but now they've made it hard to use. They now put different, and very distracting, balloons at the beginning for each message. I don't want a message service that makes it harder.

  • JoelBurner1 📚The Paige Turner (@JoelBurner1) reported from Kensington, Maryland

    @MysterySolvent A fart horn. A small confederate flag & lapel pin (she would never ever wear in public.) And, the phone numbers of, Ron Watkins - "Q", Jim Watkins, AOL emails & Reddit names. Also, Madison Cawthorn's mothers cell.

  • laurenskahn Lauren Kahn #BringOnVaccineMandates! 😷 (@laurenskahn) reported from McLean Hamlet, Virginia

    banned. It happened to me over 10 years ago on the old #AOL travel message bds. I simply set up my own website & never involved myself with travel bds again. Some of the bullies became monitors on travel advisor's bds. W/o proper monitoring, sites become the domains of bullies.

  • MarkBjorge Mark Bjorge (@MarkBjorge) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @ebooksyearn Even their status-title “network” is anachronistic in the modern telecom world. They’re like AOL back when it was a closed ecosystem.

  • wardthreedc Ward Three DC (@wardthreedc) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @jstrandt Got to film their 5 millionth sign up party at KaloramaStudios in Adams Morgan and they never paid me! I went on Aol because my dad was CompuServe and I didn’t wanna be old LOL

  • JaydeColer Jayde Willow Coler🏳️‍⚧️ (@JaydeColer) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    He IS a security risk but I’d say he’s more like Netscape (old as shit and useless) or the old AOL software (kept around far longer than should have been because people liked the one catchphrase it had)

  • HeySheckie Sheck'quon 🤷🏻‍♂️ (@HeySheckie) reported from Bethesda, Maryland

    @ESPN your iPad app is literally one of the worst playback devices I have ever used. It’s like watching video on a 1994 AOL dial up. app.

  • perk713 DatDudePerk (@perk713) reported from Springfield, Maryland

    If you never heard of Cingular Wireless, Wachovia Bank or AOL..Address me as Unc

  • Jimbo3DC Jimbo (@Jimbo3DC) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @woolfhound That was precisely my experience with NYT, and it reminded me if when I had similar experiences trying to cancel my AOL or Bally's membership. Tacky and desperate.

  • Tokyo2Toledo Rogelio De La Vega (ohio version) (@Tokyo2Toledo) reported

    @edsbs As someone in customer service, this is surprisingly the problem a lot of the time. Once had an old guy who told me that he still used the old AOL interface less than a year ago.

  • BlameTag Blame Tag 🏷️ (@BlameTag) reported

    @GenerationVoid @storenightmares I'm OT, original troll. I was up on Prodigy's Pseudo Chat ******* with people. That **** pre-dates AOL.

  • RealKaristina Karistina Lafae 🧚‍♀️ Autistic Faerie Godmother (@RealKaristina) reported

    @mattbc Yeah. only the name I knew her by when we were ~13/14. It's also possible she got married and her maiden name never made it into any online databases. AOL didn't yet exist the last time I remember seeing her. But my subconscious nags at me.

  • dannypayne81 Danny Payne (@dannypayne81) reported

    @Shires_Rich 2 - never had MySpace or AOL

  • CSdoubledeuce Michael Hammon (@CSdoubledeuce) reported

    @ThisIsDFo @allykirtley 1. Never had an aol email address surprisingly.

  • flloydthecat Not MariaⓋ (@flloydthecat) reported

    @VeganKitty2 I've never had an AOL email but yes I am old too lol

  • TheRealMJDimino Michael The Dogless (@TheRealMJDimino) reported

    @udontknowjack99 Your AOL has a bad connection… are all phones on the hook?

  • TheRealKDeppz Katie Depperschmidt (@TheRealKDeppz) reported

    Sheldon has got that old AOL dial up sound down pat. #YoungSheldon

  • _samhowell ⚒ Sam ⚒ Warrington Hammer ⚒ (@_samhowell) reported

    @kevinmousley @Mrs_R_Swipe Yeah I never used my space and I didnt count AOL as I shared that with my then Boyfriend lol

  • EnCincy EnCincy (@EnCincy) reported

    I'm living proof that those AOL chain letters were legit. I didn't send a single one of those and I'm living all that bad luck.
