      1 month free trial? These motherfuckers would not let you cancel. Phone reps would not cancel you, they’d just keep asking you questions. You sure? Huh, what if…? This? That? Do you like it? ARe you sure you want to cancel? We could blank… they’d just go on foreverrrrrrrrrrr.

    2. This was back when you could just use the “Check for new email when not in use”, or something along those lines. You could enter any account name to the prompt and check the box to remain connected after email is finished downloading and be logged in as anyone, anytime! They fixed it pretty quickly but had some fun with it.

      🤣 What a blast from the past. The sight of that disk immediately activated the dial up sounds in my brain

    4. I remember you couldn’t walk through a suburban neighborhood without finding a few of these cracked and scuffed in the street.

    5. Most of us were never offered free drugs, but this thing was pushed like there was no tomorrow.
      For those that don’t know, these disks were everywhere. Grocery stores, gas stations, schools, and constantly in your mailbox.
