I bash AOL's dial up service/dial up service population.

AIM is actually decent (the network, I use gaim).

I had to load aim a couple of weeks ago for some work related task, and it wanted to install this crappy third-party spyware called WeatherBug. Between that and the talking flash ads, I think aim is a complete pile of steaming brownish green poop, and refuse to use it unless I'm forced to.

I love these threads. It brings out the "My epenis is so huge I don't use AIM" people.

Honestly, no one gives a fvck. You're not special at all.

And my epenis is bigger than anyone else's here anyway.

That's why people use alternative AIM clients such as Gaim, Miranda, etc n00b. :)
