  3. plastic straws

    I don't think the tree-huggers have gone far enough. They outlaw plastic bags, and straws and now it time to outlaw condoms. We cannot have all these *** maniacs throwing condoms in the garbage....it is killing the planet. They have two choices: cut their **off or become celibate. I have no idea what the ** are going to do.

  5. show me what the headline says without my going through a bunch of background stuff

    Show me what the headline says instead of having to go through a bunch of background stuff first. For example, today I wanted to see about Jennifer Garner's foot, as the headline indicated. Instead there was a bunch of biographical info that I wasn't at all interested in.

  6. Stop forcing us to go through a whole history before we get to what the link is supposed to get us to!

    I clicked on the link today that was supposed to take me to a site that showed the resemblance between Kennedy and one of his grandsons. Instead of going directly to that, I was forced to go through a whole history of Kennedy, his presidency, etc. It's frustrating and, in fact, makes me very, very, VERY angry. I'm actually on the verge of quitting AOL because of this extremely common bull ******!

  10. TOSS GOLD

    GOLD has been in use long enough for everyone to know it's not working - toss it - replace it with the old version of AOL - it was more user friendly - you maybe think we'll keep GOLD so long as people don't leave AOL - don't be to sure - probably more FREE users than paying ones. TOSS GOLD-

  13. how come you post lots of "teasers" but then you can never find that particular item that you want to read? i.e.: why parents glue pennies.

    How come you post lots of "teasers, but then you can never find that particular item that you specifically want to read? i.e.: "why parents glue pennies to children's shoes". What's the answer? It was nowhere to be found. only lots of other things to surf through without that answer coming up.

  17. I

    I want you to know that I just cancelled my AOL plan after being a member since the early 1990's, back when AOL was pretty much the only game in town. I have endured ridicule and smirks for over a decade, but still I remained loyal. But Desktop Gold is a piece of junk, no new versions have come out since it was forced upon us all, and it is so slow that I have a hard time imagining how AOL keeps any paying customers whatsoever. This is all on you, AOL. I will keep my account and access it…
