Last week on, The Internet

It’s strange to watch this spot for AOL where the company appears to ‘get’ the Internet. They do a nice play-up of the Tase-Me-Bro bro and the Leave-Brittany-Alone ‘bro’.

Of course the downside to this is that by the time this commercial was made, all the things mentioned were beaten to death in parody and otherwise. (I believe the Brittany lover accidentally wandered into a saloon in Montana and was actually beaten to death). And the Miss South Carolina bit is, by Internet standards, ancient. Just like AOL. Hey why don’t I dial up to my local BBS service and play me some Tradewars!
