  Great Friend of the Show Joel Wood (@GiftedMoney) reported 4 minutes ago

  WCW had been losing millions of dollars for years before they closed shop. If AOL/Time Warner wanted WCW on their networks, they’d probably still be around today in some form. People comparing WCW to WWE never cease to make my head hurt. WCW folded because they were the number two and folded under the pressure of going after number 1. They would’ve had a better chance without the merger but they were still fighting the odds. It’s a lot easier for the number two to fold up shop than it ease for number 1 to fall to number 2. Especially when the gap is as wide as it is with WWE and AEW.

  @itsme_urstruly We used to dial into a BBS that would have a gateway to the www and were happy, thrilled! Didn't need aol, or even an ISP. Then commerce took over. Every ******* corp under the sun brought their bullshit, and the public ate it all up...

  @JonKatz79 We just cancel it. Make up a new email and start over. Or we stop using the internet all together. I write checks. Don’t ever give out my phone number and use an aol email address I check once a month and delete 15,000 emails. I win.

  The most terrifying mask in horror history? The production designer on the original Halloween had a tiny budget and grabbed a William Shatner (Captain Kirk) mask off a shelf, spray-painted it white, and cut out the eyes. (aol) Michael Myers has been scaring the world for 45+ years… wearing Captain Kirk's face.

  @FIREDUpWealth Daimler + Chrysler was one of the worst. Germans lied about the merger and they raided Chrysler's coffers for worthless projects while they let the Chrysler brands fall apart. AOL + Time Warner made so much sense at the time, but the management teams did not work together.

  @ComputerLove_ yeah we signed up with AOL back then, in 93.. then a few years later we tried to cancel, and they didn't actually cancel our account, and kept f**king charging us monthly for the service! idiots
