AOLer's Diary

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 don't know what
|
|
is wrong.
|
|
|
|
July 19- Some guy at the tech support center says my computer needs a modem.
|
|
I don't see why. He's just trying to cheat me. How dumb does he
|
|
think I am?
|
|
|
|
July 20- I bought the modem. I couldn't figure out where it goes. It
|
|
wouldn't fit in the monitor or the printer. I'm 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. He's so smart.
|
|
|
|
July 23- Whats the internet? I thought I was on America Online, not this
|
|
internet thingy. I'm 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 a microphone.
|
|
|
|
July 26- I found this thingy called USEnet. I got out of it because I'm
|
|
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 question I ask it. I asked it 44 sperate 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 didn't know spiders grew
|
|
that large.
|
|
|
|
July 31- The oracle responded to my question 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. I am so excited, I'm
|
|
|
|
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. I've looked and looked,
|
|
but I can't 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. He's so dumb.
