    i think pretty much everyone who knew what they were doing did.
    it was only loved by people who could use it without having to.
    much like the mac, which together, made the bizdroid rip off of the net possible.

    Chat rooms were the bomb. They're so fucked and gay and ugly now.
    MSN chat rooms were gold.

    I changed the sound on my aim to say "fuck you" every time a friend would message me. It made me giggle.

    When I was on AOL the internet wasn't open yet... Internet was still government, military and education only.
