Environmental consciousness is invading your privacy? Sometimes I think the recycling bin makes me look like an alchy, but then I remember, for the most part, I don’t give a fuck what others think.
Obviously recycling isn’t what is at issue here, but I don’t know what you’re talking about. Is this some Libertarian thing?
Wake up chilly. The issue hear is AIM adding bots to our buddy lists, not the environment. Leave the chip at home when you come to the internet and you might understand people a little better.
All this down your throat global warming shit makes me want to actively destroy the environment
I completely agree with (in jesting sentiment, *obviously*), because when it becomes fashionable and politically expedient to trumpet exaggerated, paranoid, alarmist, pseudo scientific predictions of the impending disaster of the global environment, I want to kill people.
What the world needs is more rational discourse, less hyperbole. Period.
Ron Paul is in your head dude. He’s everywhere. Thou art that. He’s the beginning and the end, alpha and omega. But seriously, what do you mean where the fuck is he? He’s losing to big government status quoticians that want to redistribute your wealth, tell you what to eat and send you off to war.
The issue here is that AOL needs to CEASE being so all-intrusive in our daily lives on the computer desktop. I can’t tell you how frustrating it is when I’m trying to pull up Internet Explorer to access the World Wide Web & I have that crummy piece of shit AOL Dialer popping up saying “Hey! We know you don’t need us to access the Internet at all, but please sign in here so that our shitty service doesn’t completely fade away into the oblivion that it SHOULD become.” I have seriously considered just downright cancelling my entire AOL account simply because of AOL’s keen ability to annoy the absolute shit out of me when I’m trying to get work done on the Internet, but I’ve heard the horror stories about how complicated & difficult it can be to persuade AOL operators to just do the damn thing. Bottom line is FUCK AOL, I’m getting fed up & totally tired of their piss-poor service. AND I HOPE YOU’RE READING THIS AOL. Take notes.
Does anyone really use AOL services anymore including their chat client? I mean, seriously, you should drop them like the plague and move to anything else. Move away.
Services are one thing: I’ve got friends that still use aol chat. But that’s accessible via pidgin or gmail chat or many other clients now. AOL as a brand just screams “I am a retard and the internet is a series of tubes.”

Do you hate it because it’s trendy, or because you’re scared?

I am afraid of the trendy invasion of my privacy

BTW, where the fuck is Ron Paul anyway?

To clarify, what I linked to, which just says:
