Popups are like mythical hydras. When you close a popup, two more open. It is the same way in the story Hercules. If you cut off a hydra’s head, two more headsa appear in the same place. That is because AOL lets the Atlantians from Ancient Atlantis put those popups there. So there are stil hydras today, but they are pop up ads, and someone should complain to AOL about it.

From Spam to Viruses to InstaKisses, this is everything about the actual Internet and more.
Pop Up Windows
Okay.. this may not be for everyone. I have one big problem with the internet and that is everytime I try to get to some porno about 500,000,000 pop up windows come up. So after you get done clicking them all off you realize you actually clicked off the site you went to. So what do you do?.. Like a dumbass you hit the back button and all the pop-up windows come back. But this time they have a secret weapon… Each time you click them off two more of their buddies come in their place. SO after you get all the pop up windows beat down you realize that the porn site has made itself your homepage and added all sorts of stuff to your favorites that you had no intention of ever looking at. So what is the moral of this story?… Pop up windows are god’s sense of humor….and remember kiddies.. Everytime you masturbate…. god kills a kitten.
The Free DSL Thingy
OK, if you’ve heard about this “free” dsl thing, don’t do it. it sucks. first, you have to get ten other people to sign up to get a free DSL modem, then you have to have this big ad at the top of your computer screen ALL THE TIME. yes, that’s right, ALL THE TIME, which you can do the same exact things with like All Advantage and get payed for it. and that’s not fun. i know that, you know that. some people say you can just ignore it, but um… i don’t like to do that… cause it’s not fun! so, don’t do it. yeah, buddy!
The “lol” Theory
lol. LOL. lmao. lollllllllll. lllllooooollllll. llllllol. looooooool. rofl. roflmao. we’ve heard it all before, but do people ACTUALLY laugh when they say “lol” anymore? lol seems to be a misused internet slang. Sometimes people say “lol” when they dont even mean it or they dont even laugh and they just do that so they make people think that something was funny or for some weird reason like that. Most people do it because they don’t know what else to say. But what drives us to having to use “lol” and its many many other forms created because possibly “lol” is just too plain now. ROFLMAOWWMA (Rolling on the floor laughing my ass off while wiping my ass). face it lol and all of its derivitives are just dumb, now. There should be something new that we say instead of lol and junk. Maybe it should just be “imadumbass” for right now. Whaddya say?
Creative Spam? You’ve Got To Be Kidding Me…
Its the year 2004, and after nearly 10 years of the existence of the Internet, we STILL haven’t been able to stop spam. Well, there has been a good effort though, the major ISPs of the Internet are fighting the good fight against Spammers, while raising prices of Internet access for their efforts. More specifically, AOL, MSN, and Earthlink (among others) are putting immense pressure on the spammers to create new tactics and things that will be able to get past their spam blockers. There is also some nifty programs like McAfee’s SpamKiller. Even though SpamKiller sucks, it still filters out all the mail that is absolutely shit, and gives me the chance to catch mail that I actually wanted to receive. By the way, I get about 200 spam mails a day, and more often than not, I don’t get any mail that is actually what I wanted.
However, even with all the technology, skills, and millions of dollars poured into killing off spam companies, it isn’t solving the problem, rather its making it evolve into an even more annoying one. Barely ever do you even get any COHERENT spam mail. It used to be that you’d get a subject that said “Look at these MILFs go at it!” but now its “M-I*L-F pr0n, ci+y poli+ics v/ote Ge*9orge W. Bu1sh” or something along the lines of that. Of course there is no reasonable way to block this overloading of complete and utter CRAP. One spam mail I had received (which also sparked this rant), contained a picture of a woman finger banging herself, made out of symbols on the keyboard.
I mean, you’ve gotta be KIDDING me. What the FUCK is with this shit? How long did it take this person to actually draw this thing out of dashes, dots, perentheses and one red o for the tit? Spam is seriously going too far and E-mail is doomed.
