Immature response to the AOL/Google re-up
Ooh, Microsoft, you got dissed! By AOL!
Microsoft, you got told, bad! AOL sent you an Instant Message and you clicked on the button that said, “AOL has sent you an Instant Message. Do you accept?” and then it told you, “Sorry, AOL picked Google.” It was cold!
They gave you the hand! They said “See ya, wouldn’t wanna be ya!” They stuck a sign on your back that said, “Not Google. Kick me,” and you walked around and didn’t figure it out until someone kicked you!
Someone knocked on your door, Microsoft, and you went and answered it and nobody was there. And then when you asked, “Is that you, AOL?” It totally wasn’t because AOL WAS OUT WITH GOOGLE! Oooh, burn!
Check it, Microsoft. You were like, “AOL, I love you!” and AOL said, “Yeah, uh, that’s cool, but let’s just be friends.”
And then you went home and watched “Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” and you cried all night.
Then the next day, you were at the mall and AOL and Google were totally kissing by the Sbarro’s and you started crying again. And then Yahoo! walked by and pointed and laughed at you. And then you dropped your calzone.
Dang, Microsoft. You need to get it together. I’m embarrassed for you, dog. I’m only telling you because we’re friends. People are talking. Not me. I’m not like that. I just thought you should know.

This had to be one of the biggest screwups in the history of the tech business. MS dropped the ball on this one badly.
