  1. 1st post and evil AOL by oktokie · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Wow~! 1st post!!!

    AOL is evil as ever. Who needs their expensive per xkbps download stream compared to high speed dsl or cable!!??

    Not to mention that it's very very very hard to cancel AOL account.

    Cancel it and call them next day, and call next day to check on them...99% of time your account is still well and alive!

    What does one need to squash AOL account to death effectively? If you had any bad experiences in cancelling AOL account, please post here!!! :P

    What I do want to understand is: why there isn't a single non-rich OR non-white OR non-christian running for prez in the US of A? why both Dem and Rep always indicate them? Why don't you for the love of $DEITY start voting ONLY in non-Democrats-non-Republicans for every single instance?
