  • thelastpinkcar Helena (@thelastpinkcar) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    Geez @verizon I pay $330/month for 6 devices on a family plan, and I can only use my jetpack for approximately two weeks of normal internet usage, and then you slow me down to pre-AOL dial-up speeds. Just hate this. That's not fair at all.

  • IamEricT IamEric+ Streaming Service only 4.99/month (@IamEricT) reported from River Forest, Illinois

    @swyx @jaredpalmer First software I ever wrote in Corp America was to make sure a large Telco could create a bill supporting that many digits… the intended customer persona: AOL

  • _MissValdes The Pillowhouse Princess of Lys (@_MissValdes) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    I’m just waiting for Nelly’s shit to start making the aol startup sound.

  • TOMBZZZ 💀🌙🛸 (@TOMBZZZ) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @cooIcatz In an era of AOL dial up internet at best too so if you weren't scouring for info you had little reason to doubt it. Would never work today they bottled lightning there.

  • IvanVega IvanVega.eth ✨ (@IvanVega) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @alcidezx3 had my name as well (IvanVega1) but there were others. We never just had one. Was @DoctaSlick your AOL handle, Nikki? 🤔

  • JamesZekis James Zekis (@JamesZekis) reported from Oak Park, Illinois

    @TheNotoriousLEX My memories of that race is mostly being in AOL chat rooms with people screaming at each other about steroids and Chip Caray with the worst HR call in history when McGwire broke the record. I don't want a documentary to color my experience.

  • WahidTazudeen Wahid Tazudeen (@WahidTazudeen) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    I don’t know why my internet is running so slow. I have the latest version of Netscape Navigator installed with AOL webcrawler as backup.

  • TRIhunna #TriHerbal Woman✨ (@TRIhunna) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    Please update your app. It’s AOL dial up type slow @ShopifySupport. It literally crashes every 3 commands. Also, it would behoove you to make it an option to be able to print labels/ packing slips in bulk as opposed to which day they’re purchased Printing shouldn’t be a hassle

  • donjensenep Don P. Jensen Jr (@donjensenep) reported from Elmwood Park, Illinois

    @J0hnnyXm4s I think the problem here people are too use o 40 or less characters. It is also difficult for many to type what they want for fear of that digital trail. We have also come to the point were us old school bbs and aol chat room people are becoming less and less. I often have to

  • AdamKoralik Adam Koralik (@AdamKoralik) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @RNeedre @AOL I've never found one for sale to be honest.

  • via_southside Golly I’m Gully 🇱🇷 (@via_southside) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    ****, AOL Cuties and Thugs chat days.

  • greenSLLIME 🤮ghoul🤮 (@greenSLLIME) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    I keep a drawer full of broken aol discs to cut a ***** wit

  • KingThelonious Thelonious Martin™ (@KingThelonious) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @streamlabs Not maintaining 30FPS resulting my streams looking like I’m on AOL connection. I wasn’t having that issue before.

  • omihatescops mr. ******* ☭ (@omihatescops) reported

    the quiz is from like 2003 ma'am wtf do you mean "over IM" 😭 u think we still use aol too??

  • JAMESUMBER James Umber🐞 (@JAMESUMBER) reported

    @iwazaru91 Damn, use an AOL cd for that, dogg.

  • acoustics3303 The sky will clear up soon. (@acoustics3303) reported

    I mention this because the Heisei Gamera movies are another exception in the genre: I like most of the human characters in these films. Even in the goofier scenes. They help really ground the narrative and are super likable. Mayumi is super cool, as is Honami and the NTT in aol.

  • UndeadTiger [undead] (@UndeadTiger) reported

    @AOLSupportHelp @Adnilmonte I completely agree with OP, but the Give Feedback feature doesn't work due to some User Voice Error or something. Please take our complaints on Twitter just as seriously and listen to your users.

  • 6catsCatholic Monica L Martin (@6catsCatholic) reported

    @IamJackBoot Jack, do you remember IRC? Internet Relay Chat? I was never into AOL chatrooms, but hung out some on IRC.

  • NikosRaves feral fruit (@NikosRaves) reported

    damn, when i was like 8-12 years old i would just reply to questions on yahoo answers for hours. club penguin, aol kids, powerpoints and yahoo answers were my fave things to do on the computer.

  • GCheekEnergy Andrew (@GCheekEnergy) reported

    @SoundWellMusic Me too! I met people through AOL chat rooms and went on a few dates from encounters there before I got married. Social media has been wonderful to me, mostly. Only not good during tumultuous times where I was very unstable.

  • Kybelle195739 Lizzie-Tn (@Kybelle195739) reported

    @MylandBurke @cspanwj Your internet service is probably still aol dialup. Living in ******** backward Iowa there are no choices

  • AmyDunn24789661 AmyDunne (@AmyDunn24789661) reported

    @jennobenno @JakeLobin I have satellite internet. It is horrible. It's worse than AOL dial up (if anyone remembers that)

  • RhiannonAdmidas real prime woman (@RhiannonAdmidas) reported

    My mom had great taste. Even when it was bad (bejeweled denim kitten heels, woven shirts from head shops) or insane (vintage photos of circus performers, wall art made of repurposed AOL disks) she had great taste.
