- Subject: Diary of an AOL user
-
-
- july 18- i just tried to connect to america online, which I've heard
- is the best online service I can get. i can't connect, i dont know
- what is wrong.
-
- july 19- some guy at the tech support center says my computer needs a
- modem. i dont see why. hes just trying to cheat me. how dumb does he
- think i am?
-
- july 20- i bought the modem. i couldnt figure out where it goes. it
- wouldnt fit in the moniter or the printer. im confused.
-
- july 21- i finally got the modem in and hooked up. that three year old
- next door did it for me.
-
- july 22- that three year old kid next door hooked me up to america
- online for me. hes so smart.
-
- july 23- whats the internet? i thought i was on america online, not
- this internet thingy. im confused.
-
- july 24- the three year old kid next door showed me how to use this
- america online stuff. he must be a genius, at least compared to me.
-
- july 25- i tried to use chat today. i tried to talk into my computer
- but nothing happened. maybe i need to buy a microphone.
-
- july 26- i found this thingy called usenet. i got out of it because im
- connected to america online, not usenet. i went to the doctor today
- for my regular checkup. he says that since i connected to america
- online, my brain has mysteriously shrunk to half its normal size.
-
- july 27- these people in this usenet thingy keep using capital
- letters. how do they do that? i never figured out how to type capital
- letters. maybe they have a different type of keyboard.
-
- july 28- i found this thingy called the usenet oracle. it says that it
- can answer any questions i ask it. i asked it 44 seperate questions
- about the internet. i hope it responds soon.
-
- july 29- i found a group called rec.humor. i decided to post this joke
- about why the chicken crossed the road. to get to the other side! ha
- ha! i wasn't sure if i posted it right so i posted it 56 more times.
-
- july 30- i keep hearing about the world wide web. i didnt know spiders
- grew that large.
-
- july 31- the oracle responded to my questions today. geez, it was
- rude. i was so angry that i posted an angry message about it to
- rec.humor.oracle.d. i wasn't sure if it posted right so i posted it 22
- more times.
-
- august 1- someone told me to read the faq. geez, they didn't have to
- use profanity.
-
- august 2- i just read this post called make money fast. im so exited,
- im going to make lots of money. i followed his instructions and posted
- it to every newsgroup i could find.
-
- august 3- i just made my signature file. its only 6 pages long, so i
- will have to work on it some more.
-
- august 4- i just looked at a group called alt.aol.sucks. i read a few
- posts and i really believe that aol should be wiped off the face of
- the earth. i wonder what an "aol" is, however.
-
- august 5- i was asking where to find some information about something.
- some guy told me to check out ftp.netcom.com. ive looked and looked,
- but i cant find that group.
-
- august 6- some guy suspended my account because of what i was doing. i
- told him i don't have an account at his bank. hes so dumb.
